Tailgating is Bad (Part 2)
I was sending ryN* home from school last night at bout 8pm. We were on the ECP when I noticed that this P-plate car in front of me kept braking very abruptly. I got abit irritated 'cos his abrupt braking forced me to nearly jam brake a couple of times already and I couldn't switch lane 'cos there were too many cars so I decided to just slow down and drive further behind.
Then just after the Rochor exit on the downward slope of ECP, there was a sudden jam braking in front of me and then I saw the three cars in front of me jam braking. I was next in line to join in the gang bang and I was like knnbccb. Suddenly, I remembered my driving lessons at SSDC. So I dropped gear to get the engine brake effect and I slammed hard on my brake as well. Then just when I thought alamak still cannot make it i'm so gonna crash, I decided to swerve slightly so that the extra friction will make me come to a complete stop. And it did! Phew.
The funny thing was, ryN* was not sure if the cars in front had banged each other. I was pretty sure cos the middle car's boot flew open. But we didn't hear the sound of the impact. And my radio was not that loud 'cos when I have passengers I don't really blast the music. Then we both remembered that ryN* was singing at the top of her lungs when it happened but we couldn't remember what song. I think it was Hady Mirza's you give me wings.
I think I was saved by the Super Best Friends last night. In case you don't watch Southpark, the Super Best Friends refer to Buddha, Jesus, Vishnu, Krisha, Allah and some other religious figures. I concluded that God was pulling one side of my car while the Goddess of Mercy was pulling the other. Luckily I had Christian ryN* in my car and also the amulet that my mother placed in my car. Heng heng ar!
