as i sit here on the same chair that i always do while slurping away on instant soup (oh god help me), i can't help but just wonder whether i've landed myself into hot soup. not literally folks, just a play of words.
just the other day as i was returning from vivocity, nice drive by the way, i may have beat the red light just at a small intersection. now i didn't see any flash or whatsoever. could it be that i may not have seen it? i doubt so? cause i was looking in my rear view mirror and all and i didn't see any flash. and we all know the red light camera operates 2 seconds after the light changes to red. and i really didn't see the light change until it was too late as i wanted to avoid a rear-end collision. okay, here's a conflict, if you don't mind me digressing.
the red light camera was put in place to prevent right angled collisions, or simply put collision with cars turning in from different directions of the intersection. okay. it is a good idea. but then of course, anyone wanting to prevent himself from beating the light and getting a 12 demerit point on top of a $200 fine would have to brake immediately and rather hard. now, this may then lead to a rear-end collision, or a collision caused by the car behind hitting you right up the arse. well, you'll probably kill the guy in a right angled collision, or you might kill the guy behind. and if there's another car behind the car behind you, then...well, you get the drift. play of words again. so, yeah conflict.
yeah, so i'm hoping it didn't flash. cause then my mom would get the demerit point, i won't probably get to drive, and the 200 bucks will probably paid by cutting off one of my finger tips. let's just hope for the best shall we. it didn't flash. it didn't flash. it's not a busy, hot-spot intersection. no camera there right. even if there is, it probably is a dummy one right? right? right??!!
so, should i start giving tuition? i think i should. get some extra cash. extra ching-aling in my pocket.
okay more on the car issue now. you know what's better than speeding. driving economically. com'on, sure i love putting my foot to the pedal and just let the revs irritate the living shit out of me but nothing makes you wreck your brain more than an economy ride. like putting the air-con low, or totally not switching it on. never ever touching your brake. stuff like that. the more you spend time in your car and the more you just concentrate and just putting your brain to use, you'll feel more like a driver. but sure, i'll be burning fuel away as well.
and maybe one day, you'll be with me burning petrol away.
