There has been a deadly car accident at Shek O Road , Hong Kong early this morning. The accident happened near by the car parking between Shek O village and Chai Wan at around 5-7 am this morning. More than 3 cars seemed to be crashed at the accident site, but it's not clear about the state of the passengers as they have been possibly brought to hospital already. One car has been crumbled into pieces as the front tires and engine body seemed separated from back parts. Police has cordoned the site and transportation has been closed on both sides as the debris covers few hundred meters of road although people are allowed to walk past the site. Police have blocked people from taking photographs that should be the reason that no media persons were seen on the sight even after an hour of the incident.
Every Saturday and Sunday, there used to be dozens of luxury cars racing in high speed on the road between Shek O and Chai Wan that even frightened the normal drivers and public on the road.
Update:
Later http://www.news.gov.hk/ has reported that the accident actually happened at 04:36 am this morning that involved colliding of 2 sets of cars from opposite direction killing 2 people of one 36 years old and another on his 40s.Other 2 drivers have been arrested for dangerous driving causing death.
Before thinking of buying a luxury car, be prepared to buy twice as much gas. And ask yourself, would you have the time and the means to leave old jaguar models at an expensive car care center for regular checkups.
