"Drifting" kancil

That's how it happened, right in front of my eyes. I was coming from the left curve, I think it's Jalan Parliament or something. The road in front of my was totally clear. The road in front and behind the kancil was also clear, no car chasing the kancil whatsoever. The kancil just swerved according to the above picture. At [NO 6], the car crashed on the curb (I think head first) and then it flipped a little bit off the ground, and landed and flipped again. I stopped my car further up front of the kancil and took the photo from my mirrors. The road was wet from heavy drissle. It all happened in just 3-5 seconds.
When I pass the kancil, the driver

When the car eventually stopped and I slowly passed it, I saw the driver in a position like the picture below. But his back was facing out of the car, and he was facing inside the car.

wow, Satria_95, you were in the right place at the right time to see it all happen !

hows the condition of the driver ? okay anot ?

 

[satria_95]

narx,
He was alright other than his hands, legs and head bleeding a bit here and there. It's not a lot of blood but enough to stain his pants and shirt here and there.
Wanted to bring my camera down and get up close shots as I walked over to see if he was alright.

gti88,
Yeah, guess so. hahaha Saw a few stuff today as well. While on the way to MidValley, I just drove like normal. I was on Federal Highway. So I took the turn off to MidValley. There is 2 lanes, until one part, it becomes one lane. The left lane goes to Bangsar. However, the road going to MidValley is as wide as 2 lanes, just that the left side has those white lines and white triangle, to split the road left=bangsar, right=midvalley (near the entrance of CitiTel Hotel car park entrance). A Harrier tried to over take me very slowly on the left hand side, and drove into those white lines. Directly in front, police pulled him over.

seems like this guy wasn't wearing safety belt. guys, there is a reason why safety belts are compulsary. just the other day i was inside my frens car and quite bored nothing to do so i sort of counted the number of people who wear/don't wear safety belts while driving. to my surprise out of 20 car, 8 to 12 drivers don't put on their belts. makes me wonder why malaysia have such high fatility rate coz they keep flying out of the windscreen when an accident occurs.

it's against the law (and common sense) to drive without your seatbelt fastened.... getting fined for it is what should be done - regardless of what the cops do with their seatbelts. (btw, do cops here actually fine anyone for driving without seatbelts? - because like prodigy i have noticed that amazingly many drivers and especially passengers neglect their use.)

Wearing the safety belt is for our own safety. So why care what the cops do? Doesn't mean we have to follow them if they don't value their life, and they always have the excuse of wearing the safety belt will waste a few seconds of their time to go down to take some duit kopi..

Kancil so ez to terbalik tim..

;)

flamefox850,
I really doubt he was drifting. I couldn't really see what was happening because I was behind that Toyota Unser (also in the photo) and the Unser blocked my view when the kancil was in skidding in the middle of the road. I just can't understand why he wanted to make a hard swerve from the farthest right lane all the way to the right lane. He was nicely going straight but suddenly made that swerve. It's as though he was avoiding extremely hard, perhaps avoiding something that only his eyes can see and not other people's eyes.

Y'all, on wet or even damp roads, please be extra cafeful. Wet roads are harder to predict than hot dry road.

vestax,
Meaning your friend was behind the kancil?
