A frightening experience!!!

I was totally speechless... was in a shock for a long time... angry? scare? I don't know but it was a freaking experience!!! Everything happened in less than half a minute!!!

I was about to reverse my car into a parallel parking lot and I heard a very vague "Ahhh"... luckily I stepped on my brakes though I had no idea where did the sound come from... the next thing I saw through my mirror was a boy cycling pass the side of my car in an amazing speed!!!!

What is he doing? Thinking he is a stuntman? Thinking his body and bike will be stronger than my car? What?!?!?! I was at a loss for words!!! He shouted meaning he saw my car but yet decided to take the chance and race against it??? He did not even bother to stop!!! Then I saw a auntie cycle pass my car and supposed that was his mum... she mumbled "sorry" to me and went off.... OMG!!!

There are many "if" flashing through my mind... if I did not hear his "ahh".... if I reversed a little bit faster.... if.. if... if.... I don't know how old is this boy but if the parents think he is old enough to cycle on the road then he should be taught BASIC safety rules!!! If I knocked onto him, can I say sorry and drive off???
