Eish!

Driving home after work yesterday, and I'm chatting to a buddy (using a hands free) and I stop behind a stream of cars at a traffic light. Next minute I hear the shriek of tires, look up into the rear view mirror, and see an Isuzu bakkie (LDV to my unlearned friends) coming down at me!
Had just enough time to put my foot firmly on the brake pedal and then he smacked into the back of my car.
Funnily enough I didn't get pissed off, nor did I get out and attempt to behead the demon and shit on his lungs. I got out of the car, taking a note book along with me. And using my cell phone started to take many photos, and then took down all the details I could find / ask for. Checked that everyone was fine, and left.

Very close encounter

The rear of the offending vehicle

Getting up close and dirty......

Fuck it!!! So the problem isn't that the car is damaged, and that it was a fuck head darkie that rode into me. It's the hassle of having to a) report to nearest SAPS offices, b) get 2 repair quotes, and c) put in a claim with the Insurance company.

Anyway, done 2 out of three already, and if the insurers online claim page worked, would have had that done already too. But it's not, and they don't answer their phones so I'm a bit pissed off, but what the hell, it's Friday. So, as previously stated, Fuck it!!!

Why didn't I lose it with the errant driver? I don't really know. Maybe it's because there was 6 of them together, no, that's not it, I had them outnumbered anyway, maybe cause I saw the damage wasn't too bad, or maybe I was just not in that frame of mind. Actually, I'm quite pleased with myself.

I'll get the car fixed, and sort out the excess with the owner of the bakkie, and get on with things....

Salagatle!
