Lucky Saturday

Today is Sunday and I count myself lucky to be here blogging rather than lying in the hospital! As you know, the traffic here is notorious for it's accident rate and this is something I've always very apprehensive. It is for this reason I'm extremely careful when I'm behind the wheels, but you just need someone careless to screw you up.

Yesterday I was driving along NE Highway fetching my parents to a relative's house and we were at this 300km stretch near UPM exit when suddenly this motorcycle which was apparently in the left side blind spot suddenly accelerated and CUT across my cruising car from middle lane to the left lane! I was forced to brake abruptly and my car just swerved to the road shoulder! Maybe my skill is not good but it's the motocyclist's fault. Luckily there were no other vehicles in vicinity at the time in the left lane, if not....... My parents were shocked obviously but they managed to steady themselves.
