I had a harrowing near-experience with death this evening. I was driving back from my office from PJ to my house in Klang today on NKVE Highway ( driving insanely fast of course ) when I came up on the fast lane stretch that seemed pretty empty for the most part. You know the standard highway in Malaysia are divided into three lanes - the slow lane ( most left lane or the Ahpek Lane ), the middle lane ( I call it the "pretty slow" lane ) and finally the fast lane for people like me. I was doing 200 kmph on the fast lane and encountered a motherfuxing smaller car driving nearly parallel at the speed of 80-90 kmph. I tail-gated him, very close. And all of a sudden, the vehicle in front had an emergency brake. Look, i was going 200 kmph and I had almost no time to react, but had enough time to look at that motherfuxing sexy bonet of his car and realize I was about to bang him. Imagine the impact, 200kmph baby. My car and his car had a gap just small enough between the back of his car and the front of my car for me to quickly squeeze through the middle lane rather than colliding with each other. I honestly didn't think I would make it through the gap, but did it as a last ditch attempt. I made it through and i looked back and amazingly, i saw a piece of thrown-away tyre stalled in the middle of the fast lane. No wonder he braked like that as if he was getting a blow job from Angelina Jolie. After the initial gasps of my own face on the mirror and I quieted down, i remained in pretty much stunned silence for around 10 minutes. My hands were shaking, and my heart felt like it had moved up in my chest. It's incidents like this that over-ride my skeptical side and make me seek some higher power to explain why I am still alive right now. So my advice for everyone, 1) Even a relatively crowdless freeway always requires utmost attention; always look out for the rolling tyres or flying tyres. The tyres are damn heavy and at the high speeds, they are deadly. So, don't fux around. 2) Maximum alertness required when driving. A thrown-away tyre even at one of the fast lanes on a seemingly bare highways is highly probable. Even someone who likes to sleep can be Malaysia Prime Minister. 3) One gets only a handful of seconds to react for such 'weird' happenings.. pressing the break after sighting such a rolling tyre, without being aware of the vehicle behind is a sure disaster. Always an eye on the rear-view mirror. ![]() I know the picture sux, i did my best ok ! [3:11 AM] |
