Riding experience
Our country is really becoming a bad place for motocyclists man!! Got into a stupid accident last week with this guy driving a Volvo SUV..(Now, i still hold grudges against volvo drivers..)
I was at Clementi going towards the AYE..the guy..apparently, wanted to turn into Clementi..(Chao ah lian house there). Think it was getting too late for him as he was at the wrong lane to turn right. So at the fastest opportunity, he cut into my lane and jammed his brake. I was roughly at 40kmh..wanting to switch lane to the left..just waiting for another vehicle to ass by before i switch over. I kept a safe distance from the vehicle in front but apparently this Volvo-man used this space to cut in..in had to jam-brake to stop and prevent a head on collision and swerve a bit to the left to avoid him..but not too much so as to avoid a vehicle in the next lane and also bearing in mind the vehicle at my back. Jamal was my pillion that time..he can vouch the shock we had when that volvo came and did that outrageous stop right in front of us...
I took a look at his bumper that moment and assessed only 2 scratch on his plastic bumper..(not deep..just sand it down and it'll be good as new and a crack at the rear bumper light cover)..i signalled and angry "What the hell?!!" sign at him and rode off. Seeing that my front number plate was out of shape and my front right signal light was dislocated..i thought that my bike injuries were worse. He followed me to the next traffic light..stopped and signalled for me to get down. He asked me why i knocked him and i told him that he still had the cheek to ask?! He deliberated on the fact that i hit him from the back and it is wrong..(singapore law has it that if u hit a vehicle from its back..U R WRONG) Hahaha..so we bickered on and on in THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD..(he didnt want to move to the side)..he said he wanted to claim from my insurance and blah3! Asked me for my license and i took it out and gave it to him. Asked for my insurance slip and i gave it to him.. still babbled on and at this tym..i didnt bother to reply him. (This guy..its a waste of time to talk to him as he behaved like a stubborn mule!) I in turn asked for his license and his number..had to act fierce to stamp down upon this stubborn guy that he was in the wrong maah! Wrote a contract to agree and settle it ourselves and that i will reimburse...specifically for that plastic light cover..(so he cant cheat me!)..he said it will cost $400..what the hell?!! I can overhaul my engine for that light cover man!! So me and Jamal laughed his claim off..Anyway, story cut short..we agreed to meet at the Volvo workshop to settle..he'll call cause i claim i was busy so i let him set the time provided i was free.
Its been a week..he called on monday nite saying he wasnt free. Said he check up the price..ard $90 ..so much for the $400 claim! But i wasnt free too..yet he hasnt call..but i'll keep aside the money just in case. But now i look proudly at my donkey..HAHAHA..after i fixed back an undented the things..(on the spot)..NOAT A SCRATCH beb!! But i still had to thank Allah that me and Jamal still live at home and not 6ft under! A few things myt had happened. If i had swerved left too much..we would have been taken down by the car in the next lane. If i had jammed on the spot..we would be sandwiched in between the volvo and the back car. If i couldnt brake hard and swerve left a bit..we would have forced ourselves to kiss the butt of the volvo..smashing his rear windscreen and heads at the same time. Count ourselves lucky..i made it a point to recite a doa before riding off..always..eversince i started riding cos i dunwan my family ever to lose me in an accident.
Hahaha..but this wk aso..fell wif donkey at 2DF camp while turning. Didnt notice that the parking slots were muddy and algaeish!! Turn..WOOSH!! donkey fell while i managed to stand..notice the petrol leaking..so i switched off the engine. Fuuh..heavy siul si donkey! So many ppl looking..but i already learnt the art of thick skin..(since i started riding..the skill upgraded!) Den today..i cut my shin while kick starting the bike. Bled a lot..but not pain la..used to it liao i tink. My donkey kan suck blood nye for fuel! den while getting off it..i burnt my calf cos it touched the exhaust..(ngah pakai shorts pe!) Dun wear shorts and ride ok?!
Aniwae..OPS BACINET..me deployed at Sembawang Wharves. Haiz..not wif my coy but its the best deployment ground. Got shops..canteen..aircon bunks..Yeazid and Haizu..aniwae its only for a month. 14 days on duty..14days off. Out of 14 days..7 days cumulative on QRF which is lobo! Wohoo..on the 2nd April also going Taiwan..not 12th!! Maan..soo early. But by den i can countdown to ORD. 3rd June 05!! Hehehe..goin back to sch..
Tink reception lagging liao!..2 days ago Yeazid msged me and i received the msg only at 0100hrs next day..along wif Najee's msg. Tot she didnt msg..HAHAHA! But got it a day late..Hmm..Too dependent on technology lar. Dats y now i prefer calling..so i noe confirm my msg get thru to the other party. This is also wat i wanted to tell u abt my week la when i called u dat day but tink ur kad on budget.
Ok..chaoz!
May Allah guide us all..bless us with happiness and health n protect us from the dangers of this world, physically or mentally. Help us become successful people in the world and after...
