Accident at the wheel and tyre shop

by Stanley, December 11, 2010

Having knocked my rear wheel into a stone curb yesterday, I took my car to have it checked by a mechanic. I also had both my front wheels’ alignment checked at the same time. The bump was fairly severe even my steering alignment were a bit off. But luckily the rear wheel was ok. No damage eventhough the bump felt very jarring and gave the rear passengers quite a shock.

The routine procedure took less than 45 minutes. But a 3-car pile up which happened right in front of my eyes caused a 30 minute delay. One of the cars involved in the accident ended up blocking the entrace to one of the wheel alignment machines. Which my car is supposed to go. I was lucky not to be standing there and also my car was driven away for a test drive. If not, it would be a 4 car pile up and my car’s rear would have suffered some damage.
