SARS And Swine Flu Ain't Got Nothin' On This

I was checking the backlogs of the Jungang Daily in English and found a very interesting letter to the paper talking about one of Korea's number one killers. Is it some disease? Is it a virus? Is it due to smoking? No, no, and a big fat no! It's caused by one of my pet peeves poor driving!

Yes, poor driving, drunk driving, distracted driving, and various other methods of being dangerous while on the road are all serious problems, but I've never seen a public poster about about any of them (except at my primary school). After nearly being run over while walking or riding my bike numerous times I feel this issue needs some consideration or I just might not make it back to Canada in one piece. If people took this issue as seriously as yellow dust maybe our roads would be a little safer.

See the letter here.
