i super experience mounting kerbs... rims and tyres that's one
part of my car i'm least bothered with...
one time reversing to park in front a coffeeshop in amk, then thot
the ground super uneven and get stuck in a pothole so something and
hv to really step on the accelerator to reverse in. then i came out
and realise my back right tyre went up kerb and the whole car
lop-sided. no wonder all the ah ceks looking at my direction.
another time, trying to u turn at this traffice light at fort road,
never realise the road divider where the traffic light is, is
extended unusually longer then most others, so i hit the kerb, tyre
go up and drive over it! phew, lucky no damage after the
impact.
the most recent one (abt 1 or 2 mths back) coincidentally was at
this bradell exit CTE too, so guess i could imagine the red car
incident (me not red car). That one was really bad, i was following
behind this cab along this merging lane b4 the main raod, then
there was this really hard impact i felt my tyre punctured and my
car go lop sided. got a shock out of my life but kept on driving
coz got another cab right behind and beside me. quickly switch on
hazard light and stop b4 the bus stop like 50 or 100m ahead. came
out and know i hv to call tow truck. front left tyre was punctured
badly and shift out of place. funny thing is within 5 mins got this
van drove by and told me he from the shell station in front and ask
if i need help. but after checking the guy said oh no must get
quote, the whatever shaft is spoilt... i told him then i better
wait for the authorised agent to access and repair the damage then.
in the end i got to claim insurance for the tyre and took an
unbelievable 2 weeks to claim from stup id ntxc and the inefficient
authorised agent!
ya will take extra care with kerbs now on though.
