accident - lesson learnt...

s some of u may noe or suspected. yes. 2 nites ago, was in an accident. no worries. no one was hurt or injured. only d car is.

wat actually happen was due to an inexperience & young driver who jus passed exactly a mth ago fr d accident. it happened jus outside vivocity carpark entrance. thr r 2 lanes gg into 2 carpark entrance.

tt day, dear & i r in d right most lane & tt fellow is on d left inner lane. in d end, he cut over & bump his Latio onto d door i was at. luckily d speed was slow cos we r turnin into d carpark so i tot nothing happened & i cant go out. in d end, dear ask me go out fr his side & ask me take pics. glad i got cam phone cos he cant carry so at least got proof. took near & fr far. esp d far one to see tt d other driver was at fault as his car steered to our lane & we r in front of him.

i happened to hear his friends askin if we were fr behind but pic speaks a thousand words. den somehw d kiddo said he was unsure of d lane & whr is d carpark entrance. guess he was not so familar w checkin mirrors & blind spot + unsure of d way + havin 4 other friends inside d car & Latio is not like those Getz, March, Jazz, Fit which r of smaller body size so guess all these factor cos d accident to happen.

i wasn't scared when it happen. i jus hope it's nothing so tt we can settle wat we want to settle but when i saw d outcome, i noe it was not possible. but when i notice, i was actually tremblin duno since when.

wat shock me was tt dear told d driver tt he was scare tt i'm injured, etc. so in d end, when d bro of d driver came, he volunteered to drive us to AH & paid for my med bill. we had to make our way to Vivo whr we left d car so we walked out to take a cab over.

w such event, got no mood to come back attachment & waste time so decided to inform d lab & took a day off.

ytd, end up gg d service ctr w dear & learn more bout d accidents claim, etc. it's not d 1st lesson i learnt related to cars. not too long ago, dear wanna changed car tyres & i learnts bout d sizes of tyres. den his car batt flat, den his friend's car got scratch & car tyres punctured, etc. thought i pass my licence for so long, i believed i still ve pro w my parallel parkin. & i realized i noe nothing at all bout cars. so all these while, i'd been gaining knowledges on all these. w dad, i at most help once w car tyre changing but recently, i learn more.

anw, car is an expensive investment & pray hard no accident which involve own fault esp if need to scrap off d car. so most impt is safety 1st.

well, dear got a replacemnet car cos he need it since he may b travelin ard. it is a toyota altis. champagn color which is not d color we like but no choice. jus a temp measure. & his servicing might b fr $2.5k ++... luckily not our fault.
