Kent vs. Car

Had my first run-in with a car today. I was walking past someone coming in the opposite direction when the mirror of the car clipped my wrist. The guy I was passing let out a sound I can’t put into words, the driver didn’t think twice about stopping, while I just kept going. Made me wonder how close I was to having more of my person smashed by the vehicle.

On a different note, one of the post-Ramadan phenomena I was looking forward to seeing was whether or not metro travellers would take the stairs instead of the escalator. Well, I’ve taken the metro twice and I can tell you that the escalator still remains the ascender of choice.
