Why did you run a stop light?? Were you trying to kill yourself, or other road users?

Anyway, thank God for sparing your life, and that of the other motorist.

It happened around Iselukwu-Asaba expressway. The road is so wide and smoot that you wont realise you're speeding till you see the speedometer. Have learned my lesson anway.

I had my first accident just 4 days ago on Lagos-Ibadan expressway. A fuel tanker was speeding and almost crushed a bike-man (I wonder why bikes aren't outlawed on Federal roads) and for him to avert killing the biker, he rammed into my tail and my car swerved from the service lane, faced the traffic, screeched so bad and side-rammed into the concrete splitting the roads - it almost flipped over to the other side but somehow it regained balance - I thought I was going to die! I'm still battling the trauma though.
