A downloadable game

當你打開臺灣各大媒體,無論是電視新聞或是網路媒體,通常少不了關於車禍事件的報導,幸則無人傷亡,若不幸的話,在報導文字之外看不見的地方,又是多少家庭破碎與寶貴的生命消逝。

交通意外的篇幅彷彿常駐專欄,固定佔據一個版面,而版面大小則是依據事件嚴重程度而定。

頗令人費解的是相關改善卻只聞聲響,實質沒有改變。所以明天我們一定還會繼續看到同樣悲劇的發生。

往往付出生命代價才能換來瞬間的關注。

然而就像社會對道路安全關心的熱度一樣,改善的步伐仍就冰凍在原地。我不認同臺灣社會上至政府機關下至一般民眾對於道路安全的態度。

我想開心出門,開心回家,

遊戲的存在就是要時時提醒我們的道路有多麼不安全,同時不用付出真實人命作為代價。

雖然我不覺得能帶來多少影響,但是我相信只要能喚起大眾對臺灣道安環境的多一點認識、一絲察覺,再多一點自省,放下對立與既定成見,我們臺灣社會的交通安全就能朝0死亡這個目標大幅前進,多一個人能活著回家。

When you open major media outlets in Taiwan, whether it's television news or online media, reports on traffic accidents are often unavoidable. Fortunately, there are cases where no one is harmed, but unfortunately, beyond the reported text, there are shattered families and precious lives lost in unseen places.

Despite discussions about improvements, substantial changes are seldom seen. Therefore, we are likely to continue witnessing the same tragedies tomorrow.

It often takes the cost of lives to gain momentary attention.

However, just like the lukewarm concern for road safety in society, the pace of improvement remains frozen. I don't agree with the attitudes toward road safety in Taiwanese society, from government agencies to the general public.

I want to leave home and return happily.

The existence of this game is to constantly remind us of how unsafe our roads are without having to pay the price of real lives.

Although I don't believe it can make a significant impact, I do believe that by raising public awareness, a bit more perception, a bit more introspection, setting aside opposition and preconceived notions, our society's traffic safety in Taiwan can make significant progress toward the goal of zero deaths, allowing one more person to return home alive
