Safety First

I was driving to work this morning when I saw a mother driving along MRR2 with a toddler on her laps!. I guess she was sending her baby to a nursery or her babysitter's place on her way to work.

With her right hand on the wheel and her other hand cradling her baby who could just be about 8 - 12 months of age, she seemed to struggle a bit while negotiating the slow moving morning traffic.

I could just cringed. Aduuh, how could she has no regards to safety of her baby, herself, her car and other road users?

In the probability of one over a million that this person reads my blog, I say to you - the driver of Perodua Kancil EX850 bearing registration plate WKM36*7, please, please, please, think of your loved ones. On Malaysian roads, that's suicidal.

I echo you, safety first. I cringe at the thought. I know the feeling of having a child on my lap while driving. But I have never opted for a driving like that when I have babies with me.

OS.. kak sya cukup menyampah pemandu jenis ni.. My ex MIL selalu kata biar anak menangis jgn kita menangis kelak.

Pernah sekali bukan kat jalan biasa tapi kat highway, laki dok driving ada baby kat atas lap and bini dia senang lenang kat sebelah.

I really don't understand this type of people. Manjakan anak biar bertempat. Nanti menyesal kemudian hari.

Pernah sekali kak sya drive and letak my second child kat sebelah siap ngan seat belt.. masa tu dia about 1 yr old and tak sihat... she was crying and crying... kak sya drive jugak hinggalah dia diam sendiri.

tak pernah terkena. kalau dah terkena baru mereka insaf.

membahayakan 2 nyawa sekaligus, dan keselamatan orang lain.

yup safety first that's the thing totally agree withya.

but, the problem is, we have always have a distorted definition of love. i agree to what sya says, well her MIL to be exact, its better to let the baby cry now than we cry later.

first time commenting here, so for lack of proper salutation.

Updated 23rd May 2007 SELAMAT HARI IBU.....LAGI Since people say that Mother's Day should not be confined to 13th May only but Mothers must be appreciated every day, 365 day a year instead. So I decided to let the post below shall remain, for the time being. :) *********** The truth is, as you may have already known, I am very very very busy.......and penat, letih, terduduk, terbaring kesibukan.

Kisah Ibu dan Anak

Abg Akmal : "Ibu, Ibu kena beli ni" sambil menuding ke arah iklan U-zap dalam TV. Ibu : "Kenapa? Ibu dah gemuk ke" Abg Akmal : "Ye lah, Abang rasa Ibu dah gemuk!!". Ibu : "Eishhh, kurang asam punya budak". **************** Anak (jantan) Ku, May be when you are old enough, I will have to pull you aside and give you my fatherly advice - that remark that you just said to your Ibu, don't ever say it again in front of any woman. It could start a world war! ***************** End of filler post. More serious note will come later when I have more time to breathe.

Tajuk Apa (?) Entah...

Waah, how nice blogging in the comfort of your private garden. You can smell the freshness of the newly-cut grass. Especially if the grass was cut by none other than YOURSELF. Proud of myself. There is a sense of accomplishment. Blogging and grass cutting..... 2 in 1. Pictures later. I'm still trying to figure out how to beam the pictures from my handphone to my computer via gigi biru (bluetooth). Have a good day!
