Comment on "12 killed in Chongqing vehicle crash" (China Daily, Aug 20)

It's high time Chinese drivers stopped driving rashly and being in a mad rush. Truck drivers should always remember that driving a heavy vehicle is not like driving a car. It is more difficult to control, maneuver or stop a truck in an emergency. My advice to Chinese drivers is that they should cut down on their speed and stop behaving like racing car drivers all the time.
