I met with accident on 23 May, which was thursday night. I was
travelling along Ang Mio Kio Ave 8, then when reaching the junction
of Ang Mio Kio Ave 8 and Ang Mio Kio Street 41, a stupid car
swerved into my lane suddenly. I was travelling on the center, 2nd
lane. The stupid female driver was on the 3rd lane, right lane. The
1st lane was the bus lane. She claimed that the car in front of her
stopped suddenly and she had to swerve out. But that lane she was
travelling on allowed cars to go forward or turn into Ang Mio Kio
Street 41, so cars turning naturally had to stop. The left side of
the car brushed against the right side of my bike. I tried to aviod
the collision by turning to my left, but i was already travelling
at her blind spot when she swerved towards me suddenly, so there's
a limit to my reaction time.
My gf and I suffered multiple abrasions on our limps and body,
while my bike's fork, gear, fairing and such were all
damaged...
Wat's Infuriating was that after that, the stupid driver's husband
said bikes always have a tendacy to be unbalanced and I fell off
the bike myself and his wife did not knock into me!! wat the hell
is this.
My gf is now hopitalising and I have difficulity moving around and
using my right hand. I can't believe there are such irresponsible
ppl.
Life is fragile...especially on a bike, such things could happen
when I was juz travelling slowly at a speed of 40m/h ++. All it
takes is an idiot driver to end ur life. Imagine if I was
travelling at a higher speed, I would not have been alive to tell
this story...
Now I duno how to face my gf's family...everything is such a mess
right now....
