Drink responsibly, that’s what alcohol ads say. When people get drunk, they have a higher chance of getting into a road accident.
Take for example, the case of this man whose photos were posted on social media. Bystanders say he was drunk when he met an accident while riding his bicycle. He was apparently so intoxicated that he could not remember anything at the time.
On June 27, 2015, at around 6 a.m., Kier A. posted photos of a man named Mark on Facebook, asking the public for help since Mark cannot recall anything. The post showed photos of Mark injured while lying on the road. Kier said Mark was found drunk and could not remember anything at the time he was found lying in a street.
As of this writing, Kier’s post has already been taken down. No news update about the incident has been reported yet.
Updated as of June 28, 2015:
Mark posted a comment on LionhearTV‘s page saying that he has already recovered and the incident did not happen in Malate, Manila. According to him, he tried to go home despite his drunkenness.
Mark also sent a statement exclusively to LionhearTV. He said that it is important to drink responsibly as it is not only the person who is intoxicated who can be affected should any accident happen.
Mark also thanked people who were concerned about him and helped him after the accident.
On a final note, Mark said he learned a very valuable lesson from the incident: No more drinking of alcoholic beverages ever.
