"I'm totally not to blame"
This is a brief account for an accident that happened on 29 Nov 2006.
He stopped his car abruptly on fast lane of a busy highway to insert his cashcard. It caused an accident that left a lady seriously injured. But to Mr Lim Huang Khim, 45, it was a "natural thing" to do. He does not think he did anything wrong. Despite being fined for his inconsiderate driving that caused a female rider to slam into the car behind his which had brake in time. She ended up being sued by the driver of the second car whose repair damage came to $7000.
He was chided by District Judge for his cavalier attitude by insisting he was not to blame and smiled several times as he recounted the accident on the stand. What? $200 fine and 9 demerit points for somewhat a future that's gone.
Biker has dislocated pelvis, blood clot in brain, fractured fingers, memory loss and now jobless yet she says; I'm resigned and will not expect any apology from him because all along he had been insisting it wasn't his fault.
My take on this; Its very obvious that jerk(Mr Lim) should be fully responsible for the accident as he stopped abruptly on a fast lane of a busy highway. I felt not only the punishment was a let-off for the injuries, pain and agony suffered but he should be partially responsible for the damage caused to the vehicle behind him, instead he shirked all claims.. If i'd have witnessed it, not only will I stand in favour and assist the rider(for i was a rider once), but will also confront the "innocent" driver.
