Fuck my luck, I have been waiting all day for a decent shot of something and finally when it happens turns out my camera was set on manual focus! Me and Nat where standing at the traffic light which had 3 lanes. We were parked the third row middle. Suddenly a car pulls up beside us with two people in it. The passenger wearing local clothing gets out and goes to the car infront of him and starts punching the passenger there. The driver then follows him and starts kicking in the side windows of the car infront of him and smashing them. By then I had my camera out (it was on my side since I was shooting earlier) and I started taking pictures. Then I realized my camera was out of focus and wasnt focusing because it was set on manual. Suddenly the car that was getting attacked climbs the sidewalk, nearly runs over the guy in local clothing who was trying to hang on to the car, and then crosses the red light nearly hitting an oncoming car. The two attackers get back into their car and rush off in a high speed chase through traffic. Our light turned green so I tried to follow them but it was impossible since they were weaving in through heavy traffic dangerously and then they ran another red light. It was such a rush watching all this happen and it all happened so fast. Damn my luck for having my camera in manual focus. I am sure they would have been interesting pictures. The picture above was the only picture I was able to take after quickly putting my camera on autofocus again. You can see the local guy on the floor and the car jumping off the curb through traffic. You can also see where that car was parked.

What can I say – it seems fighting is in the air in kuwait these days!!!!
I thought you’d have faster camera skills by now π
I wonder what the fight was about. Any ideas? Was it brought up on the news anywhere?
you just cannot expect what to find next at 2:48am! all the more reason to have it at the top of my morning visit list!!
thrills and spills π
hehehe cool! stupid native savages π
well native savages can have road rage
this was no ordinary road rage, the guys were crazy and really pissed off about something. the guy smashed two side windows by kicking it while wear slippers!
as said previously, stupid native savages
Which intersection is that… l0oks like somewhere in salmiya..
yup its in salmiya
Wow,
and you are acting like a rubberneck, encouraging this kind of violence and making a show out of it instead of writing something against it… It’s quite shocking to read about something so dangerous and violent in such a sensationalist way… in the end we are no better than the “natives”…
yeah i’ve seen many of those why is it shocking.. and it happens alot in wednesdays beside marina mall ..
so go take your camera on wednesday and start shooting till you say enough
