RANT: backing-up then a passer-by suddenly walks by

[chain]

just want to share with you fellow tsikoteers what transpired with me a few moments ago: (i don't even know if this should be in the goon squad section )

anyway, this happened in the parking area of Jollibee Tandang Sora.

as I prepared to back-up, I first looked at the side-mirrors then sa rear-view and finally, I looked back. as I prepared to back-up, I saw from my left side an old lady walking hurriedly. as she approached my car, nagulat siya bigla tapos kumatok sa vehicle ko. take note: kumatok siya while my vehicle was in the midst of backing-up so in motion na ako.. but when I heard the knocking sound, I immediately stepped on the brakes.

she then went up to the driver's side and knocked furiously on my window. I brought down the window and was taken aback by what I heard.

"are you looking when you're driving?!", she hollered. then this was followed by a tirade of remarks accusing me of neglecting to see her.

"huh?" I was surprised by the whole thing and since she was an old lady, I could only stammer, "but I was looking the whole time!" yeesh.. parang pinapagalitan ako ng nanay ko.

since ayaw ko na makipag-away sa kanya and protest my innocence in this matter, lalo na kasi matandang babae, I decided to apologize. "look I'm sorry, ok?" but mind you, I was already in motion when she chanced upon my moving vehicle and decided to knock.

"I hope you're sincere!".. napakamot na lang ako ng ulo when she said this. *sigh* sana naman huminto na lang siya or napansin naman na may umaandar na sasakyan sa harapan niya. nakakainis kasi I know that it wasn't my fault but I just had to let it slide.

Sana sumagot ka "Are you looking while you're walking?... Do you know what the white lights on my car's ass end mean?"

Ah, old lady pala... can't do that in the Philippines heheheh.

Hay...pati sa amin ganun....Napapahinto ka talaga. La ka naman magagawa e. Either sagasaan mo sila at panagutan mo, or let them pass then curse them at the back. I chose the latter.

Nangyari na din sa akin yan, although I wasn't the one at the wheel at the time, yung driver namin.

Pagpasensiyahan na lang ang mga lola. :D

Pagpasensiyahan mo na lang Bro.

Meron pa ngang iba, a-arte nabundol mo habang naatras ka (kahit di mo natamaan). Gagawa ng eksena, magsisigaw, hanggang dumami tao. Pero ang habol nyan, mangingikil lang. MO pala....

sosyal naman yun matanda, nageenglish pa...joke hehehhe

[mazdamazda]

daming mga ganyan... dati sa jollibee jupiter, nag baback-out na ako... eh walang nag aassist. yung ibang naglalakad ayaw tumigil... diretso lang... kailangan pang biglain para maka urong... :seeth:

When I'm backing - even if assisted, I do it very very slowly.

Hmm, there are some people who dont even know what the lights emitted by the vehicle means. Minsan na signal ka na ng reverse, umilaw na ung reverse lights mo at bumisina ka na rin, pero wala lang, sige pa rin.
