-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Be extra careful about preventing
or causing a traffic accident!
"Ah, this will be alright."
that little bit of carelessness
is just how the devil king can slip through
into our hearts and minds.
Let's take extra precaution
and be even more careful
in regard to our safety.
Safety must always comes first!
