I almost get killed today…
…when my bro’s car’s radiator suddenly blow, right in the middle of
slow-going traffic in Petaling Jaya!!! Within seconds, smoke was
sapping out from the front bonnet and filled the area.
(at this precise moment,I actually try to took a picture, before my
bro’s said that I better get my ass out or the street would be enjoying
the smell of "kerbau bakar" - he did call me a kerbau??)
anyway..it was serious enough as the tube connecting the radiator with
the &*^* ^*%* (I dont know shit about car) actually blow up,
dripping all the coolant fluid onto the street, causing the engine to
be overheated..Thank God the BMW didnt explode or set on fire like my
bro imagine it would be…Huh, we do have to respect the Germany
So, what would u do when your car blew up in the middle of Damansara
traffic lane, in the middle of hot afternoon, with each car that passed
by honking and showing u the F**k sign?
Exactly, Stand up straight with innoncent-looking face and drenched one shirt with sweat..
And our hope for anyone to stop by and lent us a hand actually took
more than 20 minutes to materialize, as a Chinese guy slow down in his
Waja and offer to take me to the nearest workshop. I accept his offer
though a little bit skeptical imagining that this guy must know someone
in the workshop, but it turned out that he’s a total stranger. That
made me feel embarassed of myself…
Anyway, its not easy in the workshop, since the mechanic is a talkative
attention-seeking guy and keep asking me different question like ,
what’s the model of the car, which part blew up, whether the radiator
still working, and bla bla bla ..I try to reach my phone and call up my
bro (who at this time is still standing on the road ignoring all the
F**K sign he got) but just then I remembered that I had just gave up my
PDA to the HP office earlier to service (read my previous post about my
PDA)
I have to describe the location of incident, and thankfully its not
that far. THe BMW manage to make the short trip to the workshop, and
after a few hours they have replaced the whicheverpartthatblewoff.
Anyway, it spoilt most of my plan for the day, and here I would like to
send my sincerest apology to Zamir who have waited for me like for
hours in Time Square and ended up watching the movie alone. I’m so
sorry I wished I could call u earlier but without my PDA, and with all
the hassle going on, I had only managed to call him after all things
settle down..
here is the pic of my bro’s BMW, now safe within it sanctuary (yes, thats my house we’re talking about)
