Have you ever trapped in the traffic? I guess most of us experience this especially those works in KL or Singapore. Trapped in traffic almost become their daily routine. How about trapped in water @ more serious case – flood? I guess not much people experience this.
Last Friday, me and my friend planned to have a walk at Jonker Street. But it’s started to rain before we reach there. The rain getting heavier and we decided to spend our boring night at somewhere. We can’t made decision on where to go, my friend drove the car while I was figuring where is the nice place to yum cha and have a chat. We end up turned into the junction to my secondary school.
Once we turned in, we just realize something was not right. The road was flooded by the downpour. There was one Proton Waja stuck at the roadside and the other car followed at behind also afraid to pass thru and stopped there as well. Oh my god! The drain was full of water and the road was on onrush of water. Almost 3 inch of tyre immersed in the water. We were panic and don’t know whether we should reverse or kept on moving. More and more cars turning in, there was no way we could reverse back and we were force to move forward. My friend was so worried and I can’t do anything except just telling her to keep pressing the pedal and move. At last, we able to cross the minor floodwater. My friend said she had been in a cold sweat while driving across the floodwater. Me too…
It’s really a suspense drive. At that moment, I can feel how terrifying were the people in Manila, Vietnam and some others place during the massive flooding.
