Morning Incident

Today I heard a heartbreaking story from my mother. Something she wouldn't normally mention on any other days. It was about what happened this morning while on her way to work.

She was driving slowly on the left lane of a 2-lane main road towards Old Klang Road when she noticed a motorcyclist following closely behind (I know you guys would be curious about his race...so I'll just say it anyway: Malay). She said the motorcyclist did not overtake her on the right lane because there are other cars joining the main road from the right side. The motorcyclist waited till there were no other cars on the road, and overtook her closely on the right. He immediately positioned the motorcycle right in front of her bumper, in the middle of the road, and swayed left and right to show that he did not want her to overtake him.

Get the picture? He was unhappy because she drove slowly, not giving him chance to overtake. So childish way of thinking-lah bro...Sigh...So, she honked him because she thought he was drunk (swaying left and right is dangerous, you see) but didn't make a difference. My mother did not even try to overtake because it was quite early in the morning, no rush to work.

The guy kept swaying left and right all the way until there was a fork/branch to turn out to another road. According to her, due to her not overtaking him, he gave his 1 finger salute before turning off to another road. WHAT THE HELL? When I heard this part of the story, my heart immediately stirred up VERY BADLY and blood already start boiling. MALAY GUY show finger to ELDERLY LADY. WTF WTF WTF!!! No RESPECT, no MANNERS, no ROAD ETHICS and no BALLS for a MALAY MAN.

What did she do wrong? Is driving slowly on the left lane wrong? Oh, so you couldn't overtake and you're frustrated, so? Lu bapak punya jalan ka? Sebenarnya, aku pun tak peduli siapa mak bapak engkau, lu kasi jari kat pempuan, lu salah. Engkau lelaki tarak bola, tau?

Sigh, Msia...fix your own people first before finding fault in others. If report to police (if any scratches made to her car) also I don't think they will care. They might just say, "kereta engkau sekarang takde apa-apa kan? Ha, boleh lah tu, tak payah banyak hal".

I know...my blood is boiling as I'm typing...need to cool down now...
