Do Cars Need Extra Shelter?

One sunny day, I was driving and when I was about to reach a traffic light, this was what I saw.

Quite amusing, to be honest.

It was RED on that traffic light when…

…this car in front of me, stopped way behind the traffic light. Why?

Obviously, he’s afraid that the frigging blazing sunshine will penetrate the roof of his car and burn the hell out of him for the tree’s huge shade.

Or maybe the driver is a SHE? Since you know, ladies…

I’m not gonna victimize the motorcyclist because it’s understandable for him to stop under a shade when it’s sunny.

Another car on the next lane ALSO stopped way way behind. Why?

Bingo, for the shade too!

But I wonder – was it too hot too sunny?

I know it’s much a little “cooler” but still – why so afraid of the heat when this GRANNIE can even walk under the sun – only with her spectrum-coloured umbrella!

Grannie is the best!

Salute!

  9. # Borneo Falconon 04 Apr 2009 at 5:46 AM

    I hide in the shade also sometime, but when I am using my motorcycle. I don’t do that when using car. It might cause someone to piss off behind me

  12. # Cafferyon 04 Apr 2009 at 7:53 AM

    Haha, I really not so often see cars also do like this.

    But I think I have seen once or twice so far.
    I usually won’t get angry of this, but if I saw someone (that don’t worry about sunny or hot) taken the first/empty place, then I will angry.

  13. # LyS@™on 04 Apr 2009 at 8:22 AM

    I do that when it’s sunny too, and only if I won’t leave a VERY huge gap between cars/traffic light.

    And what’s with the hint of sexism?? It ain’t all that funny.

  14. # ce41on 04 Apr 2009 at 8:31 AM

  16. # TZon 04 Apr 2009 at 9:13 AM

    Hahaha… I think the driver cannot stand the sun… errrrr… if i were you i would have forced the person out to the actual space … this driver was so selfish… he/she would have caused the traffic jam. :(

  17. # sireion 04 Apr 2009 at 3:29 PM

  21. # BlurryLeoon 05 Apr 2009 at 12:53 PM

    Major road jokers ;) I think they can consider installing a huge umbrella on top of the car (big enough to shelter the whole car) .. hahaha.

  22. # KimberlyMayon 05 Apr 2009 at 1:57 PM

    it might have been a guy too~!

  23. # Peteon 05 Apr 2009 at 4:12 PM

  28. # kikolanion 06 Apr 2009 at 1:52 AM

    Maybe their air conditioning is broken. In AZ, I would totally understand. I’d be irritated, but I’d also understand. They must have felt like weenies when they saw the lady walking across out in the sun though.

  29. # Shinkyon 06 Apr 2009 at 6:58 AM

    This still consider okay lar. I met the same situation. Only the bugger stop before a lane turning to the left. Blocking me from turning left. Not only that, he was talking on his stupid phone and did not bug even I’ve horned him. Really there are such selfish people in the world. I can’t imagine what’s inside their brain. =.=”

    Hi Ken, first time commenting. Just LOL, I never thought such a thing would happen. It’s never happened in JB though, people would honk you from the back if you do something like that.

  43. # HappySurferon 14 Apr 2009 at 7:10 AM

    Hey, careful there! Not all ladies take such cute action as waiting in the shade, okay? LOL!

    Come to think of it, I do that too (once in a while) though not to the extent of stopping three miles away!

    Cute post. Made me laughed out loud.

    Hi Kenwooi. Thanks for stopping by.
