My car is on the news

Happened this morning. Taxi ran a red light, hit rear 1/4 panel and flipped.
Got to love Toyota safety, curtain airbags came out, only minor scratch and bruises.

Wow. Where in HK was this? Glad you are okay.

I'm amazed by how few accidents happen here considering how aggressively everyone drives. In fact, your picture is the first accident I have seen while I am here.

Mongkok near Langham Place.
Driver needs minor surgery though, but no one was seriously harmed.

Taxi driver claimed he did not have enough sleep. =/

Is that where you live?

Could have chilled with you last week... was staying at Pop Hotel a few blocks from Langham Place.

Is that a Toyota Hi-Ace?

Glad to hear you're ok, if that was your car.

Mongkok has some tight roads in certain streets, ppl always j-walking, and cars speeding through when the stores arent open yet in early morning.

Hope you werent hurt much!
