every second counts.....

due to some last minute events, i had to leave a little later yesterday evening...... and i had exactly ten minutes to beat the 1800 hrs ERP gantry.....

as usual, there were many obstacles and challenges along the way.... i.e. road hoggers, driver with anti-social behaviour etc...... well no choice but i did my best to make my way forward....... if i could switch lanes to overtake a road hogger, i did.......

so finally as i caught sight of the gantry, i took a glance at the clock..... 17:59 !! ...... but i was stuck behind this vios in lane 2......... OUCH! but come on come on, i said to myself.....

since i was sandwiched left and right, i could do nothing ........ but seeing that there was less than 100 metres to go i thought i had a chance....... now instead of accelerating or at the least maintaining the crusing speed, damn this lady driver in a vios decided to slow down........ for reasons only she knew!!!..... just cannot take it that she took her own sweet time even as the clock counted down..... damn..!

in the end, one second.... YES! ONE SECOND...!!! one second before i reached the gantry..... which was approximately 10 metres..... the LIGHTS CAME ON...!!!

damn the vios..... who made me pay ERP even though i could have made it........ DAMN..!
