This is how I was almost hit by a car playing Pokemon Go
When Pokemon Go first came out, I was immediately obsessed with the game, I played constantly everyday and everywhere I went.
Many times I would even drive to places like the Mosaic and Ossian and I spent hours trying to catch any Pokemon that would appear.
The game made me exercise, explore, and learn more about the community. In addition, Pokemon Go was an opportunity for me to make new friends and it did.
Even though the game is fun, it could also be dangerous. Like me, everyone was playing Pokemon Go and I mean everyone.
People were playing even while they were driving. On the first week it came out, while I was trying to catch a snorlax, I almost got hit by a car and the driver of that car was also playing Pokemon Go.
The road was empty and I was just trying to catch them all, however, the driver wasn’t paying attention and almost flattened me.
Luckily, I did not get hit and avoided the collision.
I guess, I became more careful after that.
Nowadays, ever since Pokemon Go updated and changed their system like deleting the footsteps that detected where the pokemon are, I slowly drifted away from the game because it no longer entertained me like it used to.
Overall Pokemon Go was lit, but not so much anymore. I’m still waiting patiently for the day Niantic updates to include battle trading mode in the game’s system.
