Following the previous post made by pohluk, i shall relate to all what happened after school on friday the 25th. However, samurai jack should refrain from reading this post, so she won't feel hurt.
Now, after class ended, almost the entire class walked towards McDonald's to see the negotiations between samurai jack and the driver and the wife. King of TNS(Ah beng) and fei ko was the two people who went there first. By the time the rest of the class reached there, the discussion was almost over. Jaclyn had to pay the lady RM250 with her own money.
After the discussion, we all ask ah beng how the negotiations went. This is where ah beng made the mistake of accepting the lady's reason that she wants to repair and repaint the bumper at the official Toyota distributor. Firstly, she didn't produce a receipt or any statement from the workshop, so she can claim as much money as she feels fit. Secondly, the car she has isn't exactly brand new or anything, so why must you go all the way to get a new bumper and repaint it at the Toyota workshop? You can always get it done at any other workshop. Thirdly, Samurai Jack is only a student, how can you charge her so much? I mean, the lady was the one who stupidly parked her car illegally, obstructing the road, so she gets hit and now wants to claim money? She should be grateful that her car only got dented and she suffered no injuries.
Another suspicious thing is that, she never really showed us the condition of the car on that day. She only said that the car was parked far away. If the car was really damaged, then why didn't she show us the car??Futhermore, they seemed to have took off really quickly after collecting the money. And we couldn't find any trace of them after that. And the lady seemed to know where the SAM block in taylors is. I mean, how many strangers actually do? Suspicious, no? But let's not jump to conclusions here and simply accuse people. Maybe they're just innocent people who doesn't want to admit double parking is illegal and love to buy new parts for their car. After all, the man, who was quite kind according to samurai jack, didn't seem to want to claim the money and was looking very eager to leave. He seemed like he didn't want to persue anything more and wanted to let the matter drop. But i guess his wife didn't let him. He didn't even say anything during the discussion.
So let this be a lesson to us all, be careful when driving a car. And if you very unfortunately get into an accident, remember to exchange IC numbers, drivers license no, car number plate and phone numbers. Don't just simply pay them the money. Bring the car to a workshop and let the mechanic calculate the cost of repair and pay the mechanic directly.
