Counting my lucky stars

Warning: Kids, do not attempt to do this at home

It was a lazy Saturday afternoon... I was out cruising to no where when i had the sudden urge to pay a visit to the garage. My rear suspension was acting up again. Took a left turn from Jalan Damansara to Sprint Highway heading towards Hartamas.

The highway consessionaire (or was it the Highway authority) decided to put a cap on the speed limit at 80km/h. Try driving at that speed and everything around you will be like Neo doing the evasive-bullet-manuever. Without thinking or without realising, rather, my foot touched the peddle a little wee bit too much and I hit 100km/h without even knowing.

All of a sudden, I saw cars slowing down. There ws a split second calculation faster than the new Athlon 64 FX in my noodle.

{ begin calculation
On the right, Securites Commission Building
Cars Slowing Down
Cops... Freaking Cops
jump Function deep_shit
end }

Function deep_shit
{ begin
If stopped then abide rule
else run
end }

Parallel processing:
System Warning:
"Your license has expired!"
"Your license has expired!"

"Holy freakin' shit!"
I quickly tailed a truck infront of me, hoping the cops would miss me. The truck slowed down.
In slow motion, i saw the cop looking at me and he then pointed the red flag at me, signaling me go pull over to the left.

That's it, I'm doomed.
My noodle was processing at overclocked speed, almost causing a total nervous breakdown. Heart pumping at 150 beats per second!

"Shit, shit, shit!
What do I do?
What shall I say?
What will happen?"

I gave a left signal. Suddenly, my eyes scanned the area frantically. Looked at the rear view mirror. The cop who signalled me was looking at me. To my left all, the four cops were busy tending to the other cars stopped. I scanned the rear view again.
The cop turned away from me. The last image on his cornea was me giving signal to stop by the roadside.
Again, back to the left, no other cops noticed me. I slowed down. Turned off my signal.
Took a deep breath.
Drove away.
Hoping they won't give a chase. My eyes still fixed to the rear view, until everything disappeared.

KaZ,
You sped off?What if they gave a chase?
Young man,please do it again.Just pay the fine.
A few years back, I was stopped for speeding and the police asked for my driving
licence. confidently,I gave and then he came close and told me that my licence
has expired.

In front of me, there were a few cars have stopped and their licences and particulars w
were taken.Then I saw the cops eyes looking at my small boy sleeping in the back seats.
I aplogised for my negligence and forgetfulness not to renew my licence.He told me
to wait a while so that all those cars in front of me have gone.At that time, I
donot know what to expect.

"Okay,you can go now",the cop said to me. I said thank you and Thanked Allah for
His Mercy on me.

So, stay low for a few days..

Kaz,

Be careful next time. This year, I was driving with my license expired for almost 1 month without realizing it. Luckily nothing happened.

Go and renew it bro.

KaZ, i think u are being too nice by giving left signal :)

i was stopped by the police last saturday for speeding above 80 km/h. the policeman kept on telling me that the ticket will cost RM300. i told him to go ahead and ended a note that smoking is not good for health (he was puffing his cigarette while talking to me!). heh, and guess what! he let me go ... :D

Years ago, my English teacher's son done the same thing on a roadblock. The trigger happy cop shot one bullet right through the seat and the head. You were lucky they didn't bother. Then again, way to go. Damn the man!
