I was almost a victim of an accident

fwullah · #1 January 28, 2004, 05:47 AM

When I was about to get out from my car, and opened the car-door on the left side, a honda (bike) suddenly came in and struck the door. So I survived for being late FOR ONLY A SPLIT SECOND. If the honda had come in a second later, or if I were a second earlier, then that honda could have struck me instead of the door.

Anyway, Thanks to Allah that nothing happened.

Fahmida, glad to hear you are Ok.

Nascer, how is it any safer on the right side of the vehicle? Perhaps exiting through the sunroof, if there is one, is an alternative?

I thought Nascer made perfect sense given Fahmida wasn't the driver. You usually get out on the side where there are no traffic (the side next to the sidewalk). So if she pulled over the car on the side, there should always be a safe side no matter what country you are in - unless ofcourse she parked in the middle of the street which she didn't.

Fahmida... God must have been happy with you for some reason

Thank God and be safe!
