11th Feb 2009 about 5:15pm, I witnessed an incident right in front of my eyes for the very first time. There were no casaulties, only a moment of shock(not for the weak hearted). Weather was rather pleasant then, the air smelled fresh as it had just drizzled about 10 minutes before- causing the road to be slippery. Which lead us to the "little" incident I had seen...
I started off with walking back home, towards the LRT station with my friends, Alan and Meng Zhong. We were chatting animately then; and because I stand on the utmost right of the pavement, I need to turn my head towards my left to communicate, and that's when I saw the whole incident happened.
That driver was speeding along the road then, drinking a packet of drink with one hand- another was used to manuveur the car. The car obviously needed some polishing, looked quite outdated, old. Everything seemed to be so normal until that car started to spin on the road.
Guess what's my first reaction then? I screamed. "Oh My God!" My friends, heard my scream, startled, and followed my vision towards the source. I don't know how much have they seen, but I knew that they saw from the point when the car driver calmly drove away, as if nothing had happened before.
Which made me wonders, does that happens rather often with that terribly old car of his/her's? Or is it that he/she had a lot of things on his/her mind then? You know, didn't pay attention, ponders over stuff, speed metre keeps jumping up and when he/she found out, stepped on the brake and the car starts to spin.
Luckily no one was crossing the road then! Imagine what would happen if someone does? Scary... Anyway, after the car went out of our sight, my friends started to "blame" me for my "sound effects". Which, you know, shocked them. And everything started to regain it's peacefullness again.
And that concludes my first witnessing incident. Nothing interesting, I know.
P.S. Interesting things started to happen to me one by one, hope that they never stops or that I would never experience them!!
