Tea with AK71: Fallen tree paralysed traffic.

These were a couple of photos I took when a tree fell across all the lanes on Jalan Bukit Merah after an early morning thunderstorm. It brought traffic to a standstill. This was on 18 May and I blogged about it in "Tea with AK71: Life".

Here, we see a car making a u-turn going back the way it came. There was also an entire line of SBS buses on the extreme left lane as they could not move on. All the passengers had to get off the buses and look for alternative transportation.

Working hard to saw up the fallen tree to unblock the road. It must have taken at least a couple of hours before the road was cleared of debris. The metal fencing on the center divider was totally destroyed.

The weather has been getting more extreme lately and we have been told that it would get a lot worse in December. Reminds me of all the movies about climate change.
