One Fine Day

Many a time we are all guilty of taking the easy way out, going wrong way on that one way, into a no entry, jumping signals, not using indicators and many such things. This person in a car decided to take the illegal u-turn before the flyover outside EcoSpace. 2 other cars behind him hit the brakes so hard, you could hear the screeches and see the dust. They all banged into each other. Me and another 2 wheeler rammed the last car in this chain despite me braking. I was thrown on to the middle of the road. A bus from behind ran on to my bike. The other 2 wheeler was sandwiched between the car and the bus. The rider looked like he had head injuries and a crushed leg. No oncoming traffic hit me coz they were avoiding a dead dog behind me. I was wearing my helmet and gloves and the laptop bag probably helped cushion my landing. I just have body pain and bruises. And a crushed bike which I may not be able to restore. Not the case with the other rider, a definite change in his quality of life. The speeds were probably around 40kmph and distances between vehicles at 10 to 15 feet. I hope none of us ever decide to take the easy way out, coz your convenience may cause a terrible inconvenience to others.
