Reparation
Picture this scenario: Your car hits a small girl. She is lying on the ground, bleeding but still breathing.There are two options: in the event of bodily injuries resulting in disability, you will be liable to pay out compensation to cover a lifetime of medical, unemployment and care expenses. Fatalities, in ironic contrast, can be settled under the table for a small lump sum. What do you choose? With a heavy foot on the accelerator, an old man listens to his favourite tune filling the air of his car, about to make a spin of no return. In dire situations, primal instincts kick in and you must do what you must to survive. When the law fails, there is no other alternative but to take justice in your own hands.
