When I was young, we got into a car crash while on the dark national highway up north, luckily no one got hurt as the impact was at the rear end of our car and me and my siblings were sleeping at the back. In 2011, AJ Perez, the rising ABS CBN star got killed in an accident that also happened in the north highway. Road crahes happens everyday and may range from having minor scratches to fatal casualties.
“Itong mga nangyayaring road crashes, they could really alter someone’s life,” said Roland Simbulan, the husband of the U.P. professor/journalist who was killed in a bus-taxi collision last May 13, 2011.
It’s been almost a year since the untimely death of Lourdes “Chit” Estella Simbulan.
Speed limit has been implemented on major highways, including Commonwealth Avenue—where Chit died instantly.
But the numbers on road injuries keep on rising.
