I almost got knocked down by a car on the way to school.
Bus had stopped at the traffic light. Green man. I hurriedly began to cross.
A car was fast approaching, hidden from view on the opposite side of the bus.
He had crossed over a double white line and was driving against traffic.
He was in a lane I was not expecting him to be in, and he was trying to beat the red light.
I had rushed past in front of the bus and was about to cross over and break a leg.
But the guy opposite me had not crossed the road even though the man was green.
So I slowed down and as I reached the corner and peeked out.
The car saw me and did a sudden stop too, but only came to a halt after the stop line.
If I hadn't slowed down... Break a leg.
So my question is, why am I rushing to school on a holiday?
