The sight of the rear bumper and tail lights of the truck coming up and helplessly seeing my side mirror get smashed was jus aweful (or awesome if i were sadistic). AND the truck did not stop! He cont to enter Esso and stop at the pump. Worried tat he will jus drive off, i inched forward and stopped at the side of the entrance. I asked my 2 colleagues to get off the car. At e sight of e damages, i couldnt help but jus stood thr for a couple of secs. Called my dad for advice but his hp was switch off. So i called my uncle. He was shocked too, adviced me to take photo of the damage areas, exchange particulars and call the insurance comp. So i took the digi cam frm my glove box and ask 1 of my passengers to create evidence.

Jus thn, the driver came over. I saw my small blind spot mirror get crushed but zooming cars. His damage was the left tail light unit. So, he ask me to pay him $100 as compensation and i settle my damages myself and we will call it quits. WHATTT!!! E other passenger who heard it also was dumbfounded. He insist on e demand as i hit him frm the back and tat his monstrous truck can only be turned frm the 2nd lane in order to enter Esso. Doesnt make sense. Frm my colleague's repeated reminder to not fall into it and pay him, i demanded for his name and hp number. My cam went out of batt whn i wanted to take pics of his truck. Anw, still managed to get his license number.

Drove back to AFS. Was quite bz aft tat. Dad finally called back n whn i told him abt it, he gave me my aunt's number. She has a workshop and specialises in accidents.

The next day, took time off to meet aunt at Sin Ming Ave's IDAC. Made a report and took some pics. At e sight of it, she said, "Wah, jia lat eh". During the report, she was afriad tat the other party may twist the story sayin tat i cut into his lane thus resultin in it. Aft e report, went to AMK where uncle's workshop was located. Remove the wheel well lining tat was touchin against the tire as well as to secure the bumper via a cable tie. Aft tat, drove back to work.

Jus an update, Aunt called on Sat sayin tat she had seen e driver's report. He wrote tat he was turnin left to enter Esso. So, tat would be a plus point for me for the greatest fear of he twisting the story has been eliminated!! =) Stay tune for more updates. =)

On another note, i would like to urge future car owners to get a car with ABS. As soon as i stomped on my brakes, within tat same second the 2 front wheels locked. It stayed tat way for the next 2 to 3 secs before coming to stop. It would hav stopped much sooner had it had ABS.
