Did this ever happen to you dear bhai/s,sister/s,friends and mylotters? I had an appointment at Pacific Corporate Building. As i entered the parking lot,the guard asks me where i am going. I told him,6th floor training center,i will have an interview today. Then,he told me that,there is no more slot inside the parking area. Then where can i park?...the guard told me,try the next building mam,or you can look for any place where you can park your car (what the?) Ok,i will be late,so instead of arguing with the guard,i look for a space where i can park,and luckily i found one just nearby. After 15 mins or so,the guard came looking for me and told me that my car is in the middle of the road causing traffic jam Without having second thought i run leaving the guard behind,and there i saw my car in the middle of the road in a vertical position. How did it happened? I forgot to pull up the hand break

ohh.. I never face incident like it.. As i am having regular practice for hand break on normal surface too. But I guess this kind of mistakes can occur with anyone.. You are lucky that your car didn't get reversed when other car or child on behind it.. Better do take care of Hand Breaks too :)

Hi jai, ho it is terrible. Here in India if see the traffic its so worst. So what happens next, hope nothing gone wrong. It happens jai, once we gone for shopping to buy jeans and tops for me in GVK at Banjarahills, Hyderabad, and that building is having level like 1, 2, 3 etc., we didn't get parking there because of the huge crowed on that day, so we don't have an option other than to park our vehicle out the complex. But complex is corner one of the roadside there is huge heavy traffic. That area is like that much crowed and heavy traffic. Along with us there are other customers are there parked their cars outside and it was like mess on the roadside. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9ee9BqEIWA see this is the one.... but good shopping mall in Twin cities. If you happen to visit Hyderabad just visit hear also.

hello Jo, I watched the video and i saw that water tank aquarium in the center,standing proud. Well,the traffic here in the Philippines is still tolerable,but of course during rush hours after office hours,it's kind of really heavy,and some people stayed at malls rather than being trapped in heavy traffic. Nice mall my dear...wish i can visit Hyderabad someday.

Mi bonita mia....good morning. Yeah..until now I can't help smiling myself what had happen to you. Well, at least you made me laugh.. Good for you! Police never issued any violation of what had happen or maybe the police liked you... Life is full of experience and what had happen to you was another unusual experience you better log it on your calendar, blog it! Always take good care next time mi bonita...

The guard must have looked for a place for your car. Because he failed to do that, then it's his problem. :-)

Wow, luckily, you didn't cause any accident happen around there. You should know better where to park is the safest for your vehicle. Do not listen to the guard, they simply work there, and won't give any constructive advice for people. So, be careful next time.

Hopefully nobody was injured when this happened! Finding Parking is getting to be a problem at workplaces,where the space taken up is becoming more valuable..and then you have to factor in your parking costs for the working week...there were rumours recently here about maybe taxing parking spaces..it would depend on where you lived and worked,I suppose! I can sympathise with you being distracted from parking properly,in a rush to be on time for your appointment..I had to go for a Job aptitude test,and on finding the place,drove up to the gates of the building,which appeared to have plenty parking available inside,but the Guy at the gate pointed me towards another public car park a little way up and across the road..it was staff only inside the gates.thankfully I wasn't late! So,How did your appointment go? did you get through your interview ok?

hello Sheperd, Well,no one is injured nor any car's been damaged. Police was there too,i was not charged either,just given some warning and sermon (normal thing) I missed the interview and,i didn't pursue either,since i lost my concentration. But,it's fine,maybe there's a good reason why it happens and why i missed my interview. Thanks for your response and have a good day always

Hello Didi, It must have been all due to the anxiety of be there on time to the interview. It happens sometimes when our mind has opened a lot of tiny windows and all actively working at the same time, causing the "system" to get overloaded. Pray that the interview went well, and you and your car was safe. Personally it has become very mechanical for me to pull the hand brake as soon as I turn off the ignition key! Have a great evening!

cars causing traffic - to all motorist becareful
Hello Jaiho, That's kind dangerous i think. i mean, if the car reverse that you didn't use the hand break, any car who is running fast could have collided with you're car.if that happens more trouble could have caused more trouble in your part. anyways, it's your car. remember what needs to be remembered so that it wouldn't get you into trouble. having a car takes a huge guts of responsibility. but i know it's not you're fault since you're in a hurry. be careful there sis.
