A Policeman and an Accident

Before dawn, as we arrive from Laguna where I was working... goin' to our Pasig branch, we suddenly saw a failed hold up at the Santolan LRT station. Only one policeman is holding the crowd. The police officer put his motorcycle besides a delivery van and stop all the vehicles that are crossing. He then called for a reinforcement which people from every where from his point suddenly obey. Then a group of MMDA traffic officers help him subdued the onlookers and the heavy traffic that it causes. The Policeman decided to enter the passenger jeep on his own as he shouted to the other suspect(s). 2-3 MMDA officers are holding 2 unidentified suspect too that the policeman grab.

As the traffic go slowly, we then worry that a passenger could get hurt in the incident. If the suspect(s) get's too nervous he/she could grab anyone as their hostage. But thank goodnes it's all over in a sudden and thanks to the one and only policeman and some passerby and also to the MMDA officers. Now that's what I call a man on his duty. I salute you sir whoever you are.

Me and my officemate always follow our tail lights as we go home. As we drove our motorcycles along the Marcos Hi-way it was all smooth and no traffic.

After we pass the intersection of Katipunan and Marcos Hi-way a passenger jeep gave as a long beep of his horn. We ignore it because we thought that he just wanted to pass as quickly to get some passengers ahead of the other jeepneys. Then he open his head lights to a high. Then I tell to my self that "what's his problem..". Then after we pass a gas station we saw a traffic building ahead of us then me and my friend decided to take the right lane of the road. Then suddenly we saw the jeepney passes us by a foot then crashes to a van, tamaraw fx then hitted the rear of the other jeepney in front of him then the jeepney hit another one.

Whew, boy we are lucky. If we ignore another minute of it we could be in the middle of the mishap. Then we observe what could possibly the cause and we heard that the jeepney lost it's brakes. We are blessed that time and so to his passengers and to the other passengers of the public vehicles and to the driver of the van.

Two events in one late afternoon. Boy oh boy....
