sighh~...... NOT AGAIN~!!

was dem busy for the past 2 weeks working on my industry report... and finally got it done yesterday... so now I'm gonna be quite free for a while... hehehehehe...

the only vivid incident that happened was that I hit a Mercedes on a Friday night... and it wasn't even my fault... KNNCCB!!!

it was a double lane road, and I was goin' slow behind the Merc on the right lane. out of nowhere, this stupid motorbike rider on the left lane fell, and the wira behind him swerved to the right to avoid the rider, cutting in front of the Merc and almost hit it... the Merc emergency braked, I did the same, but somehow my tyres locked up, and I skidded into the Merc's bumper.... "BBOOooooopp!!!..."

damage wasn't that bad thou... the Merc's bumper was dem tough I tell you, only some scratches and a slight crack... but mine was abit more serious... the right headlight was shattered, bonnet and bumper dented... paid the owner of the Merc RM200 for the damage caused after estimating it at his workshop (apparently he only got his car newly sprayed a week ago, so got some leftover paint...).



I'm won't repair my car for the time being (partly also due to my freaking dead broke situation)... so if you guys out there see a waja with a shattered right headlight and a dented bonnet and bumper, well that's my poor ride now...

I'll leave the car as it is until the end of the year when I could save up enough money to get it repaired, plus a new coat of paint (the same silver metalic paint). also I'll add in a full set of body kit, with the current rear spoiler taken down. then I'll change my dying absorbers with adjustable ones so that my car could be lowered, thus having more stability and better road handling...

estimated damage to my wallet - RM2700

Man, I feel you. But come to think of it, if I were you I'd have discussed it over. I mean, it was an accident, clearly wasn't your fault. Surely, neither was his. But at least no exchange of money should take place? You fork out to repair your damage, and he does likewise - not fair enough? Your ride suffered substantial damage, too, to add.

Btw, if your headlamp ain't working I suggest you at least have the bulb replaced or something. One-eyed jacks are very dangerous to other road users.

well, the fact is that I hit his bumper... so if we make a police report, I would be in the wrong. I actually wanted to file a police report, and make an insurance claim one... but after thinking for a while, that would take quite a while, and I don't want to go through the whole fucking procedure again (my car just got fixed in August...)

so after confirming that getting the guy's bumper re-sprayed and fixed would cost RM200, I just pay him lahh... sighh~~ what to do??

this Merc guy is very cool one lah... actually he also admitted that technically it wasn't my fault,
but it sure ain't his fault either... that's why we call it accident lahh... *maybe it's my car's fault... the brake locked up, and the tyres (actually still new you know) did not have enough grip to brake in time, but skidded....
