Accident on Nahr Ibrahim highway

Whenever one reads about car accidents and casualties, one cannot but feel bad and sorry for the victims and their families. However, i am starting to have mixed feelings lately specially when i read accidents like the one below.

An accident occurred this morning on the Nahr Ibrahim highway when a speeding car hit two young men who were supposedly arguing in the middle of the highway!!! Rabih Hassan Abbas, 29 years old and Fadi Ali Atallah, 40 years old, were arguing in the middle of the highway when they were hit by a speeding car, killing Rabih instantly and injuring seriously Fadi.

Are there no more places to fight except the middle of the highway?

    It’s the people who run across an unlit highway at night who scare the hell out of me.

    There has to be an element of responsibility when things like this occur.

    all parties involved are responsible . . . the 2 who were arguing in the middle of road should have known better, but at the same time, the driver of the vehicle should NOT have been speeding. If he/she had been driving at a “responsible” rate of speed then there’s a chance the driver could have had time to react and avoid hitting them.
