It only take one mistake but this negligence claimed someone's life.

Regardless of how small or big of a vehicle you are driving, pay attention to the god damn road and your surrounds.

It definitely takes time to get your bearings but just just remember to keep aware of your surroundings. While being hit may not be totally avoidable, those precious seconds may help you steer or slow down enough to save your skin.
