Just wondering how I am alive today. What I said in my last post could have become somewhat true to me. hmmm.. enakum paalu oothi rendu naal aagi irukum :-) Two days back, when I was returning from office I crossed a T-junction. I have always been cautious while crossing that junction as traffic is less dense in that road and people always used to drive fast. I have to take right in that junction so looked for vehicles coming from that direction and couldn't look for vehicles coming from opposite direction as there was a Innova hiding my view. I went ahead and crossed the junction. I was dumbfounded and it took me few seconds to realize what was going on when I heard the screeching sound of a car in front of me. Yeah! I failed to see a Maruti Zen coming at a great speed from the opposite side. Thank God! The driver of that zen controlled by hook or by crook and saved me. Of course, his life too. Otherwise he would have dashed the roadside tree. Fortunately, he didn't stop his car and didn't even yell at me. But then I got few scoldings from the driver of a Qualis, which followed that Zen. ;-). I felt stupid of my negligence then.
Was it my bad time? or good time coz i escaped? ah .. it's a mixed blessing. :-). At that moment, I felt that driver as my God. I thought to follow that car to express sorry and thank him. But then I was little apprehensive and don't want to invite troubles myself. Anyways, thank you Mr.X .. thank god !!

wilson garden laya?
its possible that the car driver was a drunkard and scared shit himself
but its kinda scary to drive around in bang.
potholes,flooded roads,drunkards,college hero's, a few guys who are ready to take advantage of your language handicap,mannu lorry,poor rules and poorer enforcement make for a grt place to drive
paathu.
