 My Terrible Day

When I was walking home from office at 6:00 p.m. yesterday, I got an accident. My car hit a motorcycle from behind. I could not control my car because I drove very fast.
My car could not drive after the accident. It got a serious broken. The traffic was not so crowded. No people came to help me and the motorcycle’s rider. He was injured badly. I was so scared at that time.
Then, I called the police and tried to find help for the victim. Soon, the police came. The police asked me some questions. I told them what happened. After that I went home because it was already dark. It was really tragic.
