Another Hijack Case Happened To One Of My Club Member

But she is lucky - really lucky??

Yes...I think she is lucky, if not she might be in more serious situation than this.....read below and you will know why:-

"It was an "attempted" hijack but since her car was BADLY crashed, the hijackers sped away and left me there right in the middle of LDP after a horrifying "car spinning" episode ."

She was driving alone on LDP that night around 11:30pm on the fast lane @ 85-90 km/h. Just when she reached the bridge in front of 1 Utama heading The Curve, a car revved from the back on the middle lane and pushed her car on the left back-corner. As per what she said, she knew something was not right because it was not a normal car-to-car metal collision. After police inspection, that car was trying to hit her car with the trye and hoping for minimal damage on both car. But that F**ker couldn't control his car and stuck the tyre underneath her car then keep pushing her car towards the middle concrete divider. She steer to left by instinct to avoid the being pushed to the middle divider.

She did escape from the contact but the speed has caused her car to swivel too much towards the left almost horizontally. Again, in an attempt to pull the car back from going down the drain after the 3rd lane, she had to swivel right again then the car went into a 180 degrees spin towards the right, and finally hitting the concert divider on the left front corner and put the car to a stop. She was not able to see what car hit her as the car sped away immediately.

Injury and Damages
Both front air-bags were deployed on impact. The entire left body side of the car had tyre and rim mark, a very slightly broken left back lights, while the front was badly crashed ( can see the entire engine compartment from the gaping hole on the left ). Windscreen cracked.

she suffered very minor injuries: small bruise on the right ankle, a skin-burn from the seat belt on her chest and a hairline break on her upper lip ( possibly from the impact from the airbag ).

At the Police Station
After putting down the statement and the police heard her car was the new civic, he said hers was the 3rd case for the day. There was already a crashed blue 2.0 civic parked at the inspection area. He then showed her another police report made the day earlier where a restaurant owner's new civic (silver) was hijack when he was getting into his car after leaving a cybercafe. The hijackers had parang and they managed to get the car and have hurt the guy on the arm while his girlfriend suffered the cut on the neck. Fortunately while trying to leave the scene, the hijacker crashed the car into a lorry parked along the road. Seeing the car damaged, the hijacker actually got out of the car and ran off.

Don't you think she is lucky??? If that was a successful hijack case, I am afraid those son-of-a-bitch might not only take the car.....might take this pretty lady along as well!!!

Yes, this might be a hit-and-run case by a drunk driver......but still, we really need to be extreme caution on the highway at night.

zwet,
I met her today in a club TT(teh tarik) session....I think it was a pretty bad damage as she said will need RM20K - RM25K to fix and will take months to get the job done...

What a poor pretty lady....However, I am so GLAD that I could still see her in the TT just now...
