Unforgettable Accident

[Voon Chan]

I was travelling alone along NPE on Thursday evening. I was heading toward Sunway. After the tunnel, a car beside me move so fast and suddenly move in front of my lane. With out any indication that he wanted to come in. I pressed on my brake pad immediately. Due to some rain, my car skidded & hit the divider.

I was told by the work shop that I may have to write off the car.

Thank God that I am alive. I suffer no injury. But I was really in the state of shock.

A tow truck came. I told them that I want my car to be tow to X's work shop. They took me to a police station & allowed me to lodge a police report. After the police report was lodged. I was told by the police that they need to fine me for driving recklessly. No investigation done. What nonsense is this. It was not my fault.

The moment I walk out the police station, those guys who where towing my car refuse to tow my car to X's workshop. The refuse to release my car unless I pay them RM350. I walk straight in to the police station & made further report. The police really don't care about me. Just said try to settle it.:mad:

The tow truck drivers are really gangster.

What is going on?
Not many driver today would use their signal light to indicate which direction they are going to turn. Why can't they do it

[Dino]

Breaks my heart to hear such things!!! :(

[siewjang]

OMG, write off the car? That must be in total wreak? Glad that you are still in one piece.

Aiyah, some drivers are like that wan la. You should take down that car number and report him also. Since you are a lawyer, I know you are handling it well. No need me to teach. Haha.. I know crap only.

[Chris C]

Sorry to hear this but I guess there's really nothing much we can do at times with such situation......just have to take it loh, and be able to smile that at least, u're still o.k. and alive. :)

[Voon Chan]

Siew Jang, the car was really bad.
My wife got a shock when she saw the Gen 2.

As I have said earlier, I was so happy to be able to see my wife & son again. :)

VC, it was good to have spoken to you just now. Glad to know that it is only the car that is damaged. Take some good rest and I am sure God doesn't want you in heaven yet.

God bless.

[siewjang]

No injury!

Was God helping you or Gen2 is made to withstand the impact?

[Voon Chan]

Was God helping you or Gen2 is made to withstand the impact?I think, everything actually count.

[WitchKing]

Siew Jang, the car was really bad.
My wife got a shock when she saw the Gen 2.

[Voon Chan]

you wouldnt happen to have taken a picture of the wrecked C5 did you?I can't afford a C5
I don't know how a wrecked C5 would look:rolleyes:

[WitchKing]

I can't afford a C5

[SS2006]

Thank you kamkuey!

So time to promote proton car :D
Theoretically, it's true...if the car easily kemek, the car will absorb more impact and the driver and passenger more safe.

[kamkuey]

You said it..

A lot a people go.. "EEeee.. that car you wan ar? That day I saw that car hor.. the front part all kemek u know...still wan ar?"

They just do not know that the kemek-ing is the impact absorbing part which takes the grunt of the impact away from the passenger cabin.

[Voon Chan]

Theoretically, it's true...if the car easily kemek, the car will absorb more impact and the driver and passenger more safe.I am not promoting this car but it deserve some compliment from me.

[LiLiaN]

it is really sad to hear something like this... the authority simply doesn't care???!

[Voon Chan]

LiLian, they have to take care of their personal interest
Very sad indeed!

[LiLiaN]

unfortunately when the system is so deeply entrenched, a total revolt is needed to make a change...

[Voon Chan]

Let me share with you some Malaysian mentality
I get a summon. It is RM300.

If I bribe the police it is RM50-150only.
No hassle.
No need to go to court
Time, reputation & money can be saved.

My one day pay is more than that.
I want it hassle free

[LiLiaN]

but if everyone believes in that fundamentally, then no change can be made... :(

[Voon Chan]

People must not give chance to the police to fine us.
Obey the law & the police shall have no chance to arrest us.
This must be our 1st change.

[LiLiaN]

but how many people do that..?

[Voon Chan]

but how many people do that..?That is the problem
Everyone say they can afford the fine.

Me, I never drive above the speed or beat the traffic light

[LiLiaN]

i am not sure how heavy is the information censorship nowadays in m'sia...
but surely if people come together, some improvement can be made..?

i know how you feel, to be right on track yet wronged by the law...
my stepfather has been stopped for speeding (when he wasn't!)...
and the police were asking for, you know, coffee and tea money...
he refused to, and he was given a summon on the spot...
i was totally dumbfounded... authority framing the citizens!!

BTW, he should have challenged it

[LiLiaN]

i don't know if he challenged it or not...
i was coming back here at that time...

[Voon Chan]

A lot of people are aware of the situation
But no one want to make a chance

Let us be the people who can start & make our beloved country a better place

[LiLiaN]

on a second thought, knowing my stepfather, i think he would have challenged it...
must ask my mum when i ring her next...

[TingMS]

Brother Voon,

Sorry to hear that. Thanks god you are okay..

Cheer up..

Money can be earned back as long as you are safe and sound.

[KoChun]

No injury!
God was helping me all the way if not I am .......................(cannot imagine myself at the moment)
Thank God, VC. Nevermind the car, it can be settled though may be a big hassle.

Sorry to hear the news. :(

[daBoss]

vc, very sorry to hear about your accident...

1. thank God that you're alive
2. go back and give your family many hugs
3. squeeze every sen from insurance - they can afford it
4. forgive the other dem driver (not that he deserves it but so that you can get better sleep at night)

God bless you.

[Voon Chan]

Happyghost, kochun & daBoss, thank you for your concern & all the kind words

[Sila]

good to see you back and doing ok, vc. it's just a car, and thank god you are ok and with your family..

[Voon Chan]

good to see you back and doing ok, vc. it's just a car, and thank god you are ok and with your family..I feel good too to be able to be with my family & people here. Thank you, Sila

[Sarah]

Oh dear... i can totally identify with how you feel that time. It's really scary. But truly, like what everyone said here... at least you are FINE!! and that's the most important thing. Thought it takes a while to let everything sink in and get over it... you must really count your blessing... that you manage to live another day to still be with your family. I can lose everything for now, but not my family just yet.

Im so glad that you are fine. God's hands were upon you! :)

[Voon Chan]

Thank you Sarah.

[cucuan]

It's sad to hear the Police Force have not improved despite the recent Commission of Inquiry. One would expect them to improve themselves professionally but sad to say it's still the same.

From what I see, Pak Lah is standing alone in his fight against corruption. The rest are just only paying lips-service. The point is things having been going from bad to worse all these years and I doubt they can be put right within a short span of time.

Chin-up, VC, like you said you can still go back to see your wife and your child. What is gone is only you money which you can make back in a short-while. Thank God you are OK.

[monay]

VC sorry bout your car, but really, really glad u are all OK.

[Voon Chan]

Thank you CuCuan & monay,
I am fine.

As to the authorities the are a hopeless bunch, when you are down & out
They would take the chance to screw you

[SS2006]

Thank you CuCuan & monay,
I am fine.

Bright side of the accident - VC comes out alive and stronger
Not so bright side - VC becomes pessimistic :sad-2:

[suliet]

Sorry to hear about the accident, VC. You must have done lots of good deeds in order for you to stay in one piece. Thank God for that.
Talking about accidents, I was involved in a car crash at 7 years old at the Edingburgh roundabout. It was during a CNY and my mom was driving. That is when I lost my younger brother who is 5 years old then. The accident was so bad that it came out in the front page of New Straits Times. The car was a total lost.

I disagree with this. I believe the right word for him is 'realistic', which is a heck of a ways better than 'fatalistic' that I think I'd term myself.

Does this mean all these while he was idealistic? :eek:
Sorry, couldn't resist :p

Suliet, Sorry to hear that from you.
I hope that your brother soul will be bless & he is back there with God

Thank you

I think the many 'in-your-face' situations of seeing and experiencing firsthand the screw ups and 'screw you' scenarios people do to others that we have been hearing just rumours about, pretty much confirms and hence upgrade any pessimisms which are just then-unfounded claims and allegories into well proven realistic .....err, realities.

Boy, have I seen and experienced so many, many screw ups involving the so- called authorities (the latest and worst being the labour and industrial court)...I like to think i'm immune already. That is the sort of response i normally anticipate and nowadays I'd rather try to find the silver linings.

It just amuse me to see VC so pissed off.

[Voon Chan]

Shirlene, I was really angry that day at that moment.
I just remember that I have just given a chance to live again
I should live it right this time.

If I keep getting angry, I will sin more.
Therefore, I keep my cool

You are a Stud King.....'Cool' is your middle name.

[Voon Chan]

You are a Stud King.....'Cool' is your middle name.It is the best to keep cool always
To much anger will give me high blood pressure & heart attack in no time

[suliet]

Yo people, that's why we live life its worth cos we never know what tomorrow brings. Try to forgive and forget, that is what I normally do. Why stressed up with anger and you ended up offending everyone around you. Appreciate your loved ones before its too late.

[Voon Chan]

Suliet, you are right.
We must all learn to appreciate life & our loved ones before it is too late
Tomorrow?
There might not be a Tomorrow for us

Suliet,

I totally agree with you. Just too, too often, due to our commitments in works, etc etc, we tend to take them for granted???

Thanks a million for the gentle reminder..

Cheers :)
