a man and his car

as i was about to start my one-round run at the oval tonight, i happened to see this white car being driven at the bikers/joggers lane. i just couldn't believe that the car passed only a few feet away from me. the only excuse in my mind was that the driver was probably drunk (come to think of it, he was already drunk by 7p?). i followed the progress of the car and then noticed that the driver seemed to be deliberately running in the biker's lane and intentionally hitting the guard rails. i couldn't believe it that i heard myself say "that must be one crazy guy!" and then this guy behind me who was also looking at the car, answered back that "that is the second time he ran pass this lane!" crazy!

when the car was out of my sight, i never thought of it anymore. after all, i thought that the runners and bikers were, for sure, alert and won't be crushed by that slow going but haphazardly driven car. yet not even halfway through the oval, i saw this same car, now on the right lane along the engineering building, being "escorted" by the oval tanods. i heard the tanod shout and then this car just drove away so fast. i was astounded! and then here comes a biker hot on his heels, yelling "p.ina mo! hoy!" as he tried to catch up with the car. later, i saw this other tanod on his radio, telling whoever he was talking to that he was on his way. i caught up with him near the music building but there was no white car and no tanods, except for that other one. now i'm wondering, what had happened to that driver? i'm guessing he had hit another bike on his way out of the campus, when in the university avenue, there's this group of tanods and bikers looking at a fallen bike. the driver must have gotten away with his crazy act but i hope, he would be sober soon and realize that what he was doing had endangered all of us who were just there, minding our business, and making our runs.
