It was warm yesterday. I was playing in the park with my friends. The park was next to a road. We were talking under the tree. Suddenly we saw a car running along the road. It was running so fast. Just at that time an old woman was going across the road. The driver saw the old woman and had to stop his car in a hurry. The car was out of control and hit a tree. We ran to the car at once. We found the driver was badly hurt. We called 120 and 110. We helped the driver get out of the car and sent him to the hospital. I realized that we should help the people in trouble.
