You were late for a meeting today due to some unavoidable circumstances. Write a letter to your manager apologising for being late.

Dear John Mattews

This

is to express my apologies for being late to today's meeting at 12.30 pm. I have stuck in a

traffic

jam on newton street which is 5 miles away from our

office

as two cars collided with each other. The

traffic

was halted because of

this

.

Furthermore

, The

traffic

police have taken almost one and a half hours to clear the

traffic

congestion at the accident spot. Because of ,

this

I have to take an alternative route to reach the

office

. On normal days

traffic

on the alternative routes is less .

Whereas

today it is jammed

due to

lots of vehicles trying to use it.

Therefore

I reached the

office

around 1.00 clock pm and missed 30 minutes of the meeting. I am apologising again and promise you that

such

things will not happen again . From today onwards I will come early to

office

. I will make sure that I will not get stuck in

traffic

again. Looking forward to a quick response Yours sincerely Davis Johnson
