On the fourth day of CNY, i went to 1U 2 for a movie. On the way to the second phase car park entrance, there is 4 lanes, separated by bollards and cones.(those who r familiar wif 1U second phase carpark will know wat i mean) All da cars were queuing in to da car park in a slow but smooth manner.
A white Wira PFC 7333 who was beside me, on another lane, swerved into my lane, without signalling just before the cones and bollard.
Of cos without a moment hesitation, i braked hard to avoid that guy from whacking da left side of my car and allowed him through. Thinking of courtesy, i didnt even horn him. And because of that i got knocked from behind by a white Satria.
The damage? scratched and dislocated bumper and slight dent on my rear body though i cant say da same for da white satria. Headlamps gone, bumper broke, some major dents on da bonnet.
the white Wira was about to continue on his journey, obviously oblivious to wat he had done, i honked hard and flash at him. He reversed and i asked him and da Satria driver to come down.
I asked the Wira driver, a typical Chinese ah beng, y did he swerved into my lane and cause this accident. He replied casually, the PARKING FULL light was on at his lane thats y he turned into my lane. I ask him dun he think he should be responsible, for causing a disruption in flow of traffic to da carpark because of his action and caused this accident, his reply was, "Wat has it got to do wif me? da Satria knocked u ask him to settle wif u la!" and he made his way back to his car, and left for da parking entrance. That really got me pissed off.
So i had to settle things wif the Satria driver. Fortunately, he was a straightforward guy. Although both of us agree it was the Wira who was at fault for causing disruption of flow of traffic into da carpark but he said technically it was his fault for knocking me from da back. So he has agreed to pay for my damages.
So ZTH members, i would like to ask, who is at fault in ur opinion?
In my opinion, techinically its da Satria's fault for knocking my behind, but morally and in a common sense point of view, i would say its da Wira driver, cos, if he hadnt swerve into my lane and cause such a disruption in da smooth flow to da carpark, i wouldnt have needed to brake hard and cause da car behind to knock me.
The lesson i learnt is that, kindness doesnt begets kindness. Another trip to da paintshop for me.... after it had only been out from da paintshop for 2 weeks....guess da year of the dog has just bite me at da ass...
