Speed doesn't kill, Malaysian drivers do
Well, it has been almost aweek since the news came out on paper. One guy got beaten up by supposedly 2 guys in a quite common road bully incident here in Malaysia. Well, I guess the two guys are now peeing in their pants, after they found that they are now killers.
I am actually not suprise with the event, I'm not sure why, but it wasn't something that actually makes me feel shocked..... it is more of a feeling of .... hmmmmmm.
I had one experience with a road bully a few months ago. While I was on my way to work, this New Mitsubishi Storm just when pass me, the problem was he was overtaking me from the passenger side of the road...... well, hit my car, but as I felt I'm too lazy to fight just moved on. He gave me a chased and blocked me by the side of the road.
Three guys came out, complaining that it was my fault and wants me to pay them. Wait a minute here guys, you did something wrong just now.......
They weren't not happy when I said no.
Well, they still insist in me paying them..... okay guys, enough is enough, before I get beaten up (well, seems that everyone wants to beat me up), let's go to the police station. Then they started having second thoughts, they still say pay up for the gazzillion time and giving a reason that I might have to fork out more if I go to the cops. Again they were shocked that I said okay...... at least I know I was wrong.
After a few minutes talking in chinese, they say they will make a report....... and wants me to do the same, but still insisted that I pay up, I guess they don't understand a word I said........ so I said fine.
But... have to go to the office first. At the office one of the guys called me..... no need to go to the cops, no need to pay, no need to worry. well, again what was that just now............
