Freak Incident 2

Driving in traffic, i end up cursing a handful of people. Monday it was no different as i drove from Bangalore to Mysore. But what was different was that a car scared the hell out of me.

I was overtaking a slow moving vehicle probably an auto. A callous driver started honking continuously from behind and wanted to overtake me. It was a Getz. Since i had moved to my right, i dint want let go of my position. But this Getz guy was persistent and was honking continuously and irritated me. I signalled to him with my right hand to shut up and overtook the auto. He stopped honking momentarily. But as soon as he got space, he swiftly over took the auto and then he moved in front of me and stopped his car just a few meters ahead of me with a screech. My heart was in my mouth as i tried hard not to hit the car in front of me. My car stopped just a few inches behind the Getz. My legs were shaking. I thought the Getz guy was going to come and probably hit me. I could have not defended myself as i was really scared. So i prepared to reverse my car. Luckily the Getz guy moved on.
