I was in a 3 car accident on E Ring jus opposite American Academy school gate last Wednesday 13 Oct @1.40pm. There were about more than 10 cars which had already stopped ahead of us and we stopped too- to let a father and his children from the American Academy school cross the road.
A Mitsubishi pick up came at full speed and hit us from behind causing my car to lurch forward and slam into the car in front of me. The front of the pick up was totally smashed and the driver was injured and bleeding. My car was badly damaged ( now estimated by the car agent at QR80K in damages) Thank god, me & my 2 sons whom I picked up earlier from another school escaped with whiplash and some minor bruises. Thank God, my little girl came home sick earlier - the side she always sits in the car is the badly damaged side!
The E Ring Road has a speed limit of 100km/hr and NOBODY-(CHILDREN OR THEIR PARENTS or anybody) should be allowed to cross that road!!
The American Academy should strictly warn the parents and students too against crossing on the E Ring Road.
God forbid if any further accidents were to occur on that stretch and the others mentioned by timebandit.
