Well I drive an Activa to office daily..........and can be rated as one of the safest drivers on road......as i abide by all traffic rules, wear a helmet, never break a signal, no rage driving, no of anything on the road.....i have never crossed the 40km/hr mark....
So much so that my sis compares my driving to Fardeen Khan's driving in Hey Baby.....
Funny I know......but then despite all this something absurd happened yesterday...
I was returning home from off at 8 in the evening and was hardly a km away when this cop comes and stops me.....i am a bit surprised as it was the last thing i expected on the eve of a new year....
"he came and charged me of breaking a signal, well i was surprised, moreso because i had just got down from the flyover which is 2 km long and has no signals, i try to tell him that i was not the person because of obvious reasons, the cop tells me that he saw a person wearing a helmet and black jacket break the signal......well i was dumb struck, as this kind of thing happened with me for the first time, the cop noted down my vehicle noand threatned me that i will have to come to court to prove my innocence.....well after that i had nothing to say.....i was just waiting for him to take further action when he suggests that i can dissolve the issue right now by giving him some money...........at this point i was totally pissed off, i told him, and these were the exact words "bhad mein jaao tum, aab to yeeh issue court mein hi solve karungi"...........i know it was a rash decision, but thats what happened
my guess is that....the cop was looking to make some money, he stopped me thinking i was some guy as i was wearing sneakers,jeans, had pulled up the hood of my wind-sheater and was wearing my helmet, he was first surprised to see a girl inside, then he realised that he could harass a girl easier and get out some money out of me.....
though no real harm done, but it spoiled my mood really bad, the cop now has my vehicle no and i am just praying that he does not stop me some any day and pull me to court.....BECAUSE I WAS NOT AT FAULT.
haa...... don't worry nothing will go wrong if u r right......
it was just another lesson of life to make you more stronger and courageous ....
courageous, now i think thats not the right word.......Rash......yeah thats the word for it.......and thats what i always end up doing, taking rash decisions
but then kya karein.......ab hum aaise hi hain
