-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's be very careful when on the road!
Exceeding the speed limit 
and other distractions like using our cell phones while driving, etc. 
must strictly be avoided.
If you feel at all tired when driving,
take a break. 
Let's always be on our guard
that we don't become careless or overconfident
nor let the devilish functions prevail!
