Downturn of luck Pt 2...

Well, it cudnt get any worse than this, cud it? im having a stream of car accidents lately, and yesterday, as if it had gotten tired with cars, my car decided that it's time to bring the motorcycles into the party...

The night was still young when it happened, i was driving on the road, caught a glimpse of yellow at the traffic light ahead and made a swift turn to the other vacant lane jz when it turned red...in a fraction of a second, there came this 'bump', alrite, someone, or something has collided themselves with my car's behind...

before i can even find out what has bumped into my car, a motorcylist was knocking on my window, he didnt seem happy, and i didnt expect him to be, since i figured it should be my fault, as i didnt put on a signal when i made that turn...well, it went on with them threatening that they would make a police report unless i pay 'em 300 bucks to repaint that i-dun-find-a-single scratch motorcycle...i replied something which made them dumb-founded for a moment, i said, i'll follow behind u, to the POLICE STATION...

After that, they made a lame attempt about how tedious it could get with the police report and all and that i might hafta pay more fine and bla bla....i said it's ok....that's when they asked how much ive got, in order to settle that dispute....i said im gonna pay 20 bucks max for the fright that ive given them, and guess what, they obligingly accepted it....poor ppl, that's all ur dignity is worth? it meant nothing to me, i treated it as if it was my raya money for them...

We settled it then and there, we even shake our hands before separating...well, Selamat Hari Raya, folks....im off for a six-day break....hahaha....
