The Malay lady driver was still in the car after the accident. She looked dazed and I cannot blame her. I noticed that her front bumper was totally damaged by the impact. I reckoned she whacked the bridge's side concrete retainer.
Luckily, this happened very near to the end of the bridge (towards Prai). Or else, sure long %$@#@%% traffic jam.
Jimmy,
ReplyDeleteAny idea what is the cause? Slippery road, nails strew by unscrupulous people or just one of her bad days? You also have to be careful though.
Hope the driver is not Kartika or she will get into more trouble...

Hi Cat,
ReplyDeleteEver since the 3rd lane is open on the bridge, smart people use the left lane to cut instead of the right...this may be the cause of the accident...
I wrote this in a sense of guilt :) I used the 3rd lane to cut sometimes instead as not sure why people that drove slow like to stick to the middle lane.. Perhaps they get used of it ? MH
ReplyDeleteHi MH,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, people are used to the 2 lane express way. Maybe will take time to adjust. But I was kind of disappointed when the Pg Bridge authorities lower down the max speed to 70km/hr..
Whatever it is, it has been smooth sailing for me everyday...AM to Prai, PM to Penang Island, no jam...
