Accident

I sat in the front-left seat in the car. The car was in the right lane of a two-lane road.

The traffic light was red. So my sister stopped the car.

Then, it turned green. So we moved forward.

And then we suddenly saw a toyota camry that wants to turn to the right cutting us from the left.

Although we were already moving slowly, the toyota was so fast and annoying that we could not stop the car in time.

HONK! Bang.

We stopped the car at the side of the road.
Checked damages - left door - fine but can't be opened, left mudguard - kemek

The other party's passenger door was only slightly dented. The guy came out and started shouting that it's my sister's fault.

My sister screamed him down. Obviously, it was his fault. If he thought we were the soft-nice-oklah girls, he's dang wrong.

He never admitted that he was wrong, although he asked us how much he has to pay.

My sis called an uncle, who suggested RM700-800 for the car's damages.

We offered him that. And he didn't want to do so, saying that it's only RM500 liddat only. We argued that the door was not working and yada yada. It's either he settles it by paying us RM800, or do a police report through which both parties have to pay RM300 and the guilty party's insurance will pay for the damages.

Annoying guy wants technician to check and blah blah. Sister shoots him back.

Finally, we decided to do a
police report.

Details to get to make a police report
Important: Car plate number, Car colour and brand
Useful: Name on IC(yes, see the person's IC or driving license), IC no., Contact number

But we forgot to get the contact number.

At the police station...

We were charged RM2 for making the report. Thankfully, the (flirty) sergeant believes our story and that we did no wrong. So no saman. No need to pay RM300. Hurray!

(BTW, the police were super flirty la. It's as though they were too bored or something. My sister entertained them. I could barely bear with it.)

But, we could not fix the car immediately (my sis needs it done or it will be inconvenient for her back in her university) because we needed the other party to make a report too. (This is the part where the contact number would've been useful if we got it - we could've irritated the person to do it faster, although technically, as long as they do it within 3-4 days, they're in no trouble.)

Anyway, just now, the guy just made a report. So later, the police reports and results will be given to my sister's car company (Perodua) which will handle fixing the car and claiming from the other guy's insurance.

This totally spoiled my plans for Sunday afternoon. -_-
I wanna charge that guy's insurance for wasting my precious time.
