Halt! You shall not pass!
Friday, May 12, 2006
It was late in the night. Probably 2am? We had agreed to meet for supper. A change of scenery for once as we decided to go down to the 24 hour Roti Prata place at Sempang Bedok instead of the Block 511 market. It was too far to walk and so, I wasn't going to.
I turned out onto the main road and sped towards Sempang Bedok; I was running late. Neubis and Moo were probably already going to be there. I turned out onto main road New Upper Changi and went past Tanah Merah MRT. A left turn and I would be there. I hope they haven't waited too long.
I rounded into the road and ahead of me I saw flashing red and blue lights. A Police road block. The night before a public holiday, it hadn't occured to me. I've lost track of all time ever since I started my summer break. I was expecting to ride past the road block, perhaps I have a suspicious looking face, but to my utmost surprised, the police pulled me over! Ridiculous. Absolutely Ridiculous.
Why? You ask me. Well let me show you my vehicle that night.
Clearly our civil servants have too much time on their hands. I pulled over and had the police officers interrogate me. There were 8 of them, of which only 3 spoke.
They actually pulled me over. I was extremely stunned.
Police Officer 1: Where are you going boy?
Me: Erm Supper?
Police Officer 1: Where??? (gruff voice)
Me: Erm... Sempang Bedok? (Duh right?)
Police Officer 2: Go there eat what?
Me: Roti Prata?
Police Officer 3: How come your bicycle no light one????!? HUH?!? You asking for it is it boy?
Me: Rides off.
I'm only glad I had my P-plate and my seatbelt on or who knows what might have happened.
Things on my mind:
Gerger in Europe
Civil Servants who have nothing to do
Boobs
Sprouting Nonsense Since 1984 {4:58 pm}
