    Another motor vehicle accident? What caused this accident?
    Will they ever learn to drive cautiously? This includes other vehicles.
    He is fortunate he was only injured. I hope he recovers.
    There were two more accidents in Toronto which resulted in deaths of the drivers. Too many! There have been a few of them so far this year since there is no snow. They commence driving them in warmer weather. They are brave to drive their motor vehicle in heavy traffic.

      It used to disturb you? :lol: Are you residing where he constantly drove by?
      Those motor vehicles do make a lot of noise.
      Having stated that, something should be done about reducing the noise for they are disturbing the peace.
