What do you understand from this picture?
Imagine this is a T-junction.
Big box = Car
Small Box = Motorcycle
The story.....
The green car tries to turn right. But he noticed the yellow motor is trying to immediate turn to right as well. So the green car has no choice but to stop in the middle of the junction to allow the yellow motor to make his way. Unfortunately by doing so, the green car blocks the blue motors. Of course the blue motors are frustrated at the green car but did not understand why the green car did that. Soon after the yellow motor turns in & he did not notice a red car is coming at high speed. Then the red car hit the yellow motor. This further adds anger to the blue motors.
Like my usual style, let's relate this to our life experience.
Most of the time when problems come, who will you be? The green car? The red car? The yellow motor? Or the blue motor?
Green Car
He did what he could to prevent accident. If he ignore the yellow motor & turn right instead, he would be knocking down the yellow motor instead. He stopped in the middle of the junction with the good intention but the blue motors blamed him for the whole accident.
Red Car
He hits the yellow motor unintentionally. The yellow motor is not the only one at fault actually. Even though the red car is coming, who ask the yellow motor to act hero to force-turn anyway? Yet all the blames go to the green car & not the red. & if the red car did not speed, maybe the accident can be avoided. & yet all blame goes to the green car, not the red car.
Yellow Motor
No need to elaborate, the main culprit here. Reckless.... But he gets the pity despite he is actually the root of the problem.
Blue motor
Of course they are angry with the green car but they did not understand the whole picture. The accident happened behind them. What they saw was just the "good intention bad action" of the green car. & they assume the cause of the accident was the green car.
In our lives there will definitely be peoples like the green car (sincere, kind, sacrificial), the red car (the normal people), the yellow motor (the troublemakers), & the blue motors (people who don't really know the truth but wanna act as if they know everything).
Where do you stand???

I'm not involved with the accident, don't worry. BTW the real case yellow motorcyclist was not injured at all. Haha.
