Drivers from hell

*pic snagged from google*

Every now and then we all see moron drivers in some situation or another. Sometimes it makes your blood pressure boil up to its maximum limit. Sometimes all you could do is just shake your head in disbelief. Sometimes you automatically spew out expletives. Yeah, I sometimes tend to do that (say the F word) but only without the presence of children on board. Self-control is the word here.

Let me tell you a bit about these so called drivers from where I live. Here, you could always witness some F1 driver wannabes recklessly speeding on a narrow two-way roads with total disregards to the safety of other road users. Not just drivers even motorcyclists are not spared. These speed devils are a sneaky lot. They would cut you abruptly when you're making turns to right or left lane without giving signals and expect you to give way to them. And if you do happen to knock into them and it is not entirely your fault you'd still get the blame!

There are also drivers who do not park properly. I just don't know what to make of these inept species. Some like to double park on a very cramped road and would not budge when they see oncoming cars or cars from behind struggling to move past them. What can you really do in that tight situation? Me? If I managed to get out of it without a scratch, I'd just give them that jeling-jeling look lah what else. You think I dare to flash my middle finger and get into trouble afterwards? What if they are hidden psycopath road bully? Sape nak tolong kan huhu.

And how many times have you seen a car conveniently parked outside its designated parking spot? Sometimes these moron do not bother to adjust their car to fit nicely into that parking spot making the remainder spot useless for other drivers. And what makes me so damn geram is when the car happens to be a minuscule Kancil! Grrr! 

And don't even get me started on people who do not signal. Do they really think that people can read minds so they don't see the benefit of giving signal when making turns. There are also others who have the audacity to think its pointless to give signals when there are no vehicles behind or from the opposite direction and that its also permissible to run the red lights when there's no oncoming cars. I find these judgement call a grave error. What if there's a motorcylist or pedestrian or cyclist suddenly appears out of nowhere and crossing the road? Do they ever think about this possibility? I doubt so.

What about those coming from side lanes and not slowing down a bit to enter the main lanes. These drivers certainly expect us from the main lanes to slower down for them and some don't even bother to signal. I've had my fair share of dreadful encounters with this type of drivers and they always give me a fright. Sheesh!

How about lorries and buses? Huh, that's another story. Whatever it is, I don't want to be sandwiched in between them, beside them, in front of them or behind them. Whenever I see these monsters approaching by I'd just speed up!

Opss hehe.

80's mania

As I was driving my daughter for her tuition last night, this song was aired on Lite.FM channel and suddenly it brought back those fond memories.

Yeah, who could've believe I was young, reckless and carefree back in those days. Perghhh!

Googled for the wrong reason

Of late, there seems to be a sudden surge of visitors on my blog traffic feed. That's weird coz I know my blog isn't that popular or fascinating (very far from it) and the only people who may read this blog are probably friends/acquaintances from my facebook friendlist. I'm pretty sure of it ever since I changed my previous url to the current one. 

Then it dawned on me that the very reason they were here is because of the recent posting on General Kenako. Yup, just google up that name and it will lead you to this very lame blog. So to those visitors who expect some kind of factual information on General Kenako, I would just like to say this - KORANG SUDAH KENA!  Hurmm, come to think of it, maybe the name Kenako itself was originated from those words? LOL! 

Well, it turned out that General Kenako was really a marketing gimmick from the fast food chain, Nando's! And thanks to the management of Nando's for enlightening that up. It sure solved the mind-boggling puzzle haha! And I seriously thought of taking the advice of this gal to ask for a free meal from Nando's in exchange for the free publicity on my blog. He he!

Well, that was last month's news.
