WARNING!
Graphic images of human blood in this post. Not for the faint-hearted and/or of weak stomach.

Early this morning, this scene greeted me as I got to the corner of 10th Avenue and B. Serrano St. in Caloocan. Here is where I take the bus or AUV on the way to North Ave. MRT station.
(Photos taken using Sony Ericsson P1i. Photobucket reduced the size to 1024×768. Click on the thumbnail to view large image.)
Must be an engine trouble causing the truck to stop, I thought.
Then I saw this on the sidewalk:
My blood run cold. I had not bothered asking what had happened, so I made several deductions. A male child, probably between grade 3 and 1st year high school, met his death in this place. A block away is a small college with an elementary and secondary school. The pants for male students in that school is blue.
So I looked around and took some shots, to support my deductions. Some of the photos are not for the weak of heart (and/or stomach).
The back of the truck. Notice the green cloth, a part of which is also in the picture of the tattered pants and shoes.
Scratch marks on the road. Maybe at this point the truck driver realized he was going to hit the child, and stepped on the breaks.
Some blood marks on the pedestrian lane, which was at the back of the truck after the accident.
The sign of death. (I had deliberately inverted the image to negative. Click on the image to view the positive. WARNING: Blood.)
The truck’s plate number: PUU 396.
I am assuming the child, a male, is dead. For those who believe in God, please pray that he is alive; otherwise, please pray for the eternal repose of his soul, and that he may get justice. For those who do not, hope that he will get the justice that he deserves.

I just woke up…and the first thing I had to do was bring in some dry-wall to the garage…now I log-in and find this…WTF. Well I almost had the same experience here in Canada, almost…and if I didn’t jump out of the way I’d be in the hospital or dead by now.
In this country, pedestrians are KING, you stop at every pedestrian crossing where there are people walking. You don’t you get a ticket and jail time + community service and worse, get fired from the company you’re working for and revoke your driving license for 2 years. X__X
This reminds me of other accidents, where murder was committed after the initial incident. I heard that drivers would deliberately run over their victim again as burial expenses are less expensive than hospital bills. Worse, the lawyers fail to place the more grievous fault. This needs an advocate. Anyone?
