It seems to me that it all boils down to graciousness.� Both drivers were being ungracious.
�
You'll notice also at the pedestrian traffic light people were crossing from the other side.
�
Seems to me the van was going a bit too fast for the conditions, AND that the VW didn't check properly.
�
Both were being ungracious.
�
And the ultimate problem with an eye for an eye is that ultimately the whole world goes blind.
These type of drivers need to be taken off the road. What did cam car do to deserve that? Noob or not does not really matter. TP need take a serious view of these type of road bullies and hit them hard as a deterrent that such a behaviour is not tolerated.
�
That aside, with a cam, I would let him hit and then report TP and claim that bugger gao gao.
�
The VW wont hit. If he wanted to, why he braked during the reversing? Should just reverse full speed...
This VW driver sibeh guai lan!
Car still not even 2 years old already want to bang & change new car!
�
- Impatient
- lousy driving skills (since he had to do multi point turn and in the end still cannot squeeze pass the merc)
- maybe impaired judgement...that is a popular watering hole.
�
�
ultimately end up wasting more time for everyone....

VW driver is an idiot and wrong. I think we all can agree on that.
�
The issue here is that we should all practice defensive driving no matter if we are legally right or not.
�
Sometimes it takes years of driving to see the light...although admittedly some lao jiao driver still drive crappily.
bro the worst thing is those LJ drivers still think they are right!

i agree with you 100% but as a driver, once u see someone park ... bo bian right, just be patient .. u coming out while the guy is parking (no matter how blur he can be) makes it inconvenient for everyone. dunno why the audi so kancheong to come out sia ... lol.
yup there were 2 empty lots (could be the merc driver is not a lao jiao driver, but heck, we all had to start somewhere), but ill say this for the merc driver - when i signaled to park in front of him, he immediately reversed to occupy the audi's lot (i still reverse park, because i wanted to get as close to the kerb as possible). but at least the merc driver got common sense to reverse and occupy the behind lot and make it easy for me also ...
Both also a bit dud but the Audi is just plain impatient.
Side scrap that time both lose big time.

this is weird. The car braked for a moment, then decided to try his/her luck ??
reminds me of
Screenshot.188923.1000001.jpg
Maybe the driver thought he switch to neutral already so release brake and then prepare to pull handbrake. Then car suddenly move faster the moment he released brake, panicked and at that moment mind blank took another one second to react and step on brake but too late already.
All new VW nowadays have that.
Next time VW should consider an option,open up the flap,shoot water at the Cars behind.

I actually feel really weird driving in slippers, but mine are rather thick. I tried driving barefoot for the short distance before, felt weird too, all in all prefer driving with my shoes on. They're the type with a super-thin sole and barely any padding at the toes. Still provides the protection of a shoe but with a lot of feel.

I really want to get a new pair of this type, but the barefoot shoe trend died off and I can't find any besides the awkward Five-fingers...

yup....he was concentrating on trying to overtake the other motorcyclist but only realised the car on the 1st lane had come to a stop. He braked to late to avoid a collision and he was denied space to do any manouvre by the slow poke biker. I hate this kind of bikers who straddle between lane at their own pace making 2 lanes their own which actually denies 1st and 2nd lane motorists the space to overtake.

SINGAPORE - Two friends who raced with each other along a stretch of road in Seletar in the early hours of New Year's Day last year (2015) were jailed, fined and banned from driving for taking part in a competition without a permit and for dangerous driving.
Ryujin Tan, 26, and Gordon Tan Zhi Liang, 27, had each admitted to two charges each of racing and dangerous driving along Seletar Link towards Punggol Way. Two other charges were considered during sentencing.
They were jailed for three weeks, fined $6,600 and banned from driving for 18 months on Friday (July 8).
Deputy Public Prosecutor Selene Yap said that Ryujin, who was driving his aunt's blue Nissan GTR, and Gordon, who was behind the wheel of his mother's red BMW, were in Yishun Dam on New Year's Day last year when they decided to race.
They were flagged off by one of Gordon's friends and switched lanes and made an illegal U-turn in the course of the competition.
After the first race, Ryujin told Gordon that he did not accelerate fully and requested another race, saying he would accelerate fully this time.
Ryujin then drove at a high speed along the extreme right lane of Seletar Link towards Tampines Expressway back to the start point. Both drivers made unauthorised U-turns and repositioned their cars at the start point.
The second race started at 2.12am. After about 800m, both cars made unauthorised U-turns at a gap�and continued to race back to the start point.
A traffic police staff sergeant, who was part of a team conducting anti-illegal racing activities, captured Ryujin's car speed on the laser gun over a distance of 191.5m to be going at 146kmh.
The video of the races was played in court on Thursday when the duo pleaded guilty.
Ryujin's lawyer Desmond Tan said in mitigation that no real hazard was caused to anyone that morning, and that the only "spectators'' present then were his client's wife and the friends with whom he was hanging out before the race.
He said his client acknowledges that he had made an error in judgment by deciding to compete with the co-accused in a bid to determine who has the faster car.
Gordon's lawyer Mohan Das Naidu said his client was remorseful. Both men wanted to have some fun with their cars and hence decided to compete with each other.
The maximum penalty for taking part in a competition without a permit is six months' jail, a $2,000 fine and a driving ban of at least 12 months.
For dangerous driving, the maximum penalty is a $3,000 fine and 12 months' jail.

I don't think the other biker is a slow poke biker la. He was more cautious and looked out for traffic infront. Notice his speed was higher in the beginning and was overtaking cars at a decent pace. Only slowed down when lane 1 slowed down. He was practicing defensive riding. He moved further to the left and only sped up after he overtook the broken down taxi.
aiyoh, red light ......
��
think press brake but slip then press accelerator
But from what i see,the driver thought the traffic light it going to change to green light,so he/she don't want to stop completely..
maybe.....but the taxi aint travelling that fast and the 1st biker had 2nd thought and indecisive about overtaking after he saw that the vehicles in the 1st lane had come to a stopped resulting in the 2nd biker's collision. 1st biker didnt even looked behind eventhough the collision happened very close behind him. My friends and I had purposely done this kind of manouvre in some occasions on rivals....but that was intentional! The 1st biker was oblivious to what was happening behind him and i doubt he saw the 2nd biker behind him coming at speed trying to squeeze through. Of course 2nd biker have to share most of the blame but that 1st biker is like a road hogger eventhough he was straddling the lane. Sorry lar.....have not been on a bike for close to 20 yrs so my interpretation maybe out of sync with the riding community.I don't think the other biker is a slow poke biker la.

90% sure his foot slipped from the brake, looking at the video can tell when his foot slipped too lol (about the 14 sec mark), most likely the guy was only partially stepping on the brake pedal after lifting off the gas.�

Tipper trucks......i dont expect anything else from them. They drive as if they own the road expecting everyone else to give way. No signal, sudden change and speeding faster than a normal car....thats why they are called tipper truck.....the odds are heavily tipped in their favour in an accident! Others will surely get crushed and trampled!
�
Yes bro, i agree with u.. many of them in the West speed and cut each other like sports cars, with loads on their backs.. no wonder some end up in drains..
�
The law must be harsher on those with greater impact on other road users, and these trucks would be the first choice.. penalties meted out for errant truck drivers must be harsh enough to discourage them from being reckless like now.. �jail and revoke of driving licence would be best,,�
i kana at about 50km/hr but was actually accelerating from low gear when the car in front e braked. I flew, my wife (that time was fiance) flew....result was torn sweater and baju kurung....Front brake too good,tire too grippy...

The problem with some bikers are they always feel it is their right to lane split and give all sorts of justifications to do that. My take as a rider, wanna lane split no need to give any reason, do it at your own risk assessment. I personally dun like to lane split a long stream of vehicles as it leaves me no escape route at all plus I get unnecessary pressure from fellow bikers below. Msians bikers love that however n I m puzzled with their mindset til this day
�
But when I travel in the centre of the lane gg with traffic flow, I do get a tailgaters in whatever lanes I m in. To counter that defensively, from 2 secs rule, I create 4 secs rule to make up that 2 secs rule that silly tailgater who did not give me. Well I do admit some will call me a b**tard here creating a far larger distance with the vehicle in front of me, I am creating a safer distance so that I can do a quick acceleration to a safer adjacent lane to get away & probably piss that silly tailgater off. Some tailgaters are plain habitual anyway.

He said his client acknowledges that he had made an error in judgment by deciding to compete with the co-accused in a bid to determine who has the faster car.
Gordon's lawyer Mohan Das Naidu said his client was remorseful. Both men wanted to have some fun with their cars and hence decided to compete with each other.
The maximum penalty for taking part in a competition without a permit is six months' jail, a $2,000 fine and a driving ban of at least 12 months.
For dangerous driving, the maximum penalty is a $3,000 fine and 12 months' jail.

Is it my eyes or the pedestrian signal portion is red at the point of crossing?
�
Don't get me wrong, the bus should have stopped if the light was red whether there was anyone crossing or not.
�
For the man on the motorised kick-scooter, if he wanted to enjoy the privilege of using the pedestrian crossing, at the least press the button for crossing. Whether he should have dismount or not is up for debate.

Omg! Ya,the poor boy might hv internal injuries after this broadside hit..must go hospital check immediately, esp if got internal bleeding..the driver sibei ai wan..suay place suay time...Shit! How can the boy be fine with such an impact?
And the driver of the cam car just stayed in the car doing nothing all this while???� Doesn't matter if the boy was wrong to dash across the road.
�
Or a woman driver crying in the seat after the accident?
Unlikely to have no injuries although he can stand up and walk. I hope they called the ambulance to send the boy for checkup. Internal injuries no joke. Best outcome is the poor boy recovers fully and will remember this experience for the rest of his life.Hope the boy is fine.
Parents just have to keep nagging at their kids about road safety lah no choice. I sound like a broken record every single day.
WTF was the driver doing after the accident? Fainted?
P/s: I will show this video to my boy to reinforce the importance of road safety. Not the gory type so suitable for kids education. One video beats my one-year worth of nagging.

Got a shock watching the video ...
No way the driver able to react on time ... too sudden ...
Hope the boy will be ok ...
Parents, pls educate our kids to cross the roads safely ...don't run across ....
Look left, look right and look left again ...
?????....
I've seen many cases where people just dash across the road after alighting from the bus. And they usually do it in front of the bus. I don't know why they do it but they must have felt invincible that the bus could protect them from other vehicle.
Anyway, pity the driver. Most likely he will get fine from TP.
Jialat. The driver should have slowed down when approaching stationary bus.

Well, hindsight is always 20/20 right? While we should slow down, most of the time we don't not bec of recklessness but bec we dont expect it..Jialat. The driver should have slowed down when approaching stationary bus.

It's an accident, caused by the boy running across the road suddenly.. the driver did nothing to exacerbate this accident and wasn't speeding..should not be faulted .. hope the boy is ok now..

Ouch!� One more reason not to overtake on a single carriage lane.�
i was so dumbfounded by the vid that i needed to pray for his safety immediately.
�
This is one vid that i will show my kid for sure. The danger of running out in front of a bus.
look like bmw
�
...in before someone say ccb bmw.
Hope the boy will recover well and learn a lesson from this unfortunate accident.
everyone was pointing at the car and driver - not fair.
�
he wasn't speeding - he couldn't hav seen the boy.
�
no one could have reacted in time
�
pedestrians shldn't cross in front/behind big vehicles.
Probably why the driver remains in the car. Got a shock, haven't recover and everyone already faulting him / her.�
To be fair to the driver, he or she was not speeding. Just unfortunate. Hope the boy is not seriously injured.
These type of drivers need to be taken off the road. What did cam car do to deserve that? Noob or not does not really matter. TP need take a serious view of these type of road bullies and hit them hard as a deterrent that such a behaviour is not tolerated.
�
That aside, with a cam, I would let him hit and then report TP and claim that bugger gao gao.
�
Totally agree, car cam guy should send the video to TP.�
I saw a video by Suzy Adorabella Lyliana in All Singapore Stuff Facebook.� Wanted to post the link here but cannot be done.

I could almost imagine one of my boys doing that
from this video, many say heart pain and not harsh on the boy jaywalking.
�
So drivers now probably be more caution and slow down when come to bus stop, especially in neighborhood area with single lane road.
I will�pray�for�the boy and wish him well. It was painful to see the way the boy tried to stand up�but failed...
�
The driver should have come out of his car immediately to assist the boy,�I dono what�was he doing after that. WTF man...����
Driver heng its single continuous line.� Double line confirmed chop stamp he / she hang.
Full speed impact. The cam car did not brake until impact.......
�
When driving pass an obstacles like a stopped van or bus, I make it a point to look at the hidden spots where a person can dash out.
�
My right foot will be off the accelerator and positioned just touching the brake pedal. It might not prevent an accident but it will shave milliseconds off the reaction time in such classic case......
�
Please remember to drive defensively for sake of yourself, your loved ones at home and everyone else...
�
�
agree for your 'high class toyota' , that you have to be more careful as knock and run over ppl, wun feel one....scary
�
�
agree with keeping situational alertness on high when seeing such areas like buses, etc when anything can happen. Expect the unexpected

I had a similar brush in the evening near my home while picking up my wife from the bus-stop.
�
Was turning right at junction when it was green in my favour and the pedestrian light was already red.
�
I crossed the junction carefully and while approaching the already red pedestrian crossing, a boy on a bicycle dashed down the slope and crossed the junction while I was a picking up speed to cross.
�
The boy and bike brushed the rear left fender. I quickly stopped�at the side of the road and ran to see the boy whom had taken off.
�
Luckily, 2 pedestrians caught up with him before he could get away and they told him off in my presence that the light was not in his favour and he should have stopped and waited and push the bike across instead of riding across.
�
I heaved a sigh of relieve and thanked them and left with a scratch on my car.
Did schools stop teaching kids how to properly cross roads? (with appropriately gory pictures)
Aiyah just take it as Darwinism and a reminder for us drivers to expect the unexpected, especially around built-up areas.

I think sch principals should show this video during assembly (still got such thing?) to reinforce road safety.Did schools stop teaching kids how to properly cross roads? (with appropriately gory pictures)
But hor knowing softie parents these days, sure will complain about the content traumatizing their fragile snowflakes kind of nonsense.
My heart skips when I see the video.
For those who bash the driver, I think its really not right (Just my own view).
�
My reason are as below :�
1. the driver was not speeding
2. No matter who is it, the reaction time is really too short and can see the driver did try to brake ASAP thus the lesser impact
3. The driver did get out of the car, from the auntie who have eye lvl contact and the direction she facing when talking show the driver should be somewhere outside beside his door.
We are not sure if he was calling the ambulance or what thus we should not just jump to conclusion and said its his mistake.
4. Some ppl may due to shocked react a little slower after the incident
�
Hope the boy did not have major injuries and learnt his lesson of not dashing across the road in future
�
Anyway everyone have their views and just my 2 cents worth
�
I empathise with the driver too. Why? Because 10 years ago i had an�almost exact�accident like this. That time�had 2 ladies waiting to cross a traffic light which was in my favour (not theirs). Then suddenly�one saw the opposite oncoming bus and decided to dash in front of the bus to intercept it, most likely that was her intended bus. The time she decided to dash across was so sudden, I wasn't able to brake in time to avoid. But luckily my ebrake was so effective I merely "tripped" her onto my bonnet. So the impact was only her face when she fell face first on my bonnet, she did not fly like the boy.
�
So then came the interesting part. Every passerbys�then came to me and started scolding me for reckless driving, some even accused me of beating red light. I had no time for them as I was�busy checking on her and also calling ambulance for her and calling�police. As you can see in the video, this boy most likely saw his bus coming and trying to dash across in front of it. Yes its unfortunate and hopefully nothing serious happen to the boy. But clearly you see the boy was at fault and he learnt a painful lesson. Say now its not a car but a motorcycle and the motorcyclist flip and�he get a even serious injury, will the same driver bashers still side with the boy?
�
Its human nature to defend someone suffering but to start bashing the driver for unsafe driving I think we have to put ourselves in his/her shoe first.
�
For my case, I calmly told the TP what happened and said light was in my favour and asked him to ask the friend of the lady. Because she was waiting to cross while her friend decided to dash, so if she was truthful enough she would agree I was not lying. The TP asked if I knew other witnesses, I told him to ask the bus driver. The bus driver mostly like saw what happened especially when a woman on the opposite side trying to dash across to board his bus. Furthermore, she would not need to dash across if the light was in her favour because the bus would have to stop anyway.
�
In the end, I was free of any charges and the lady got a letter of warning for indiscriminate crossing. This was at the time where there was no in car video to prove my innocence. I am glad this driver has one.

Kids are kids and they have to be taught right from young. I wouldn't point the finger at the school at all.

Just this morning, I have someone "jay riding". Someone riding a motorised wheelchair was crossing the traffic when the lights were in my favour. Can't she wait for a few minutes to cross rather than to take the risk.

already open and unmanned for many years. U can just bring your kids there to play.�
Gone are the hey days....
�
Nowadays very desolated. Minimum caretaking. Alot of mosquitoes. Even if you bring your kids, it will just be an empty riding park with simulated roads and structures.
�
But the main idea about Road Safety Park is to have the "drivers", "riders", "pedestrians", NPCC cadets pretending to be TP to expose the chewren to simulated road conditions and to teach and show them the rules and safety tips in practise.

road crossing is a habit to be conditioned into the child's brain, no point telling one thing and do the other. Saw many time parents pulling the child hand to jaywalk although the kid say 'teacher say cannot'.
�
even now when my kids are already older, every time i try to jaywalk sure kena scolding from them.

�
sigh, you are one of those rare parents who educate your kids to be responsible for their own actions.
�
Nowadays, I observe that more and more parents are blaming everything else that happens to their kids. �They are just not willing to take the responsibility that it is their own failed upbringing of their kids, by either setting bad example or simply bochap, that resulted in certain behaviour in their kids.
�
I had a teacher who shared with me that a school boy in sec 2 broke his fingers when clowning on the chin up bar during recess, and the parents blame the school for his injuries. The thing is that the form teacher has called and informed the mom many times that the boy is behaving in such a way that will endanger his friends and himself by clowning around in class and PE lesson. �The mom response was epic.... My son is expressing himself and making his class relax by clowning around, what is wrong with that? the school shld understand his kind intention..... �
�
�
and yet when shit happens, she goes arnd blaming the school. The dad even better, simple asked, what can I do? you school shld do something abt it....�

Was travelling on centre lane when this Stream suddenly swerve into my lane. As I knew there was no vehicles beside me, I made a sudden avoidance maneuver. Can hear the tyres screeching as I stamped on the brakes and swerve. After recovering, I stopped, wind down my window and shouted at the driver. He apologised and say there is car exiting the carpark and he also trying to avoid it. I told him that he should have stopped and not swerved into me.

Use the kerb markings to see. you can see the point where driver hits the brakes, the kerbs slow down �+ the car dives downwards just a few milliseconds before hitting the reckless boy, but enough to prevent a full speed impact.�

No offence, but if driving defensively that shouldn't have happened. Always expect other road users to be complete idiots, and you'll rarely be disappointed.This morning had a scare of my life as I experienced my car's ESP kicked in and saved me from crashing.

In this case, the actions of the car were fairly easy to anticipate.
Also, ESP shouldn't be kicking in on a dry road. Maybe it's time for a tyre check. But anyway, if you plan a little ahead, emergency manoeuvres may be avoided, and ESP, ABS etc. won't be activated.
Just some pointers, not meaning to criticise. Anyway, good that there was no accident, and since the guy apologised, let it go. I would.

Stream overreacted slightly by swerving out so much but mostly is the car that is coming out exceeded the white line. People like these cause accidents.�
On what planet is that reckless driving?

Also - the video angle might be misleading, but can see the stream moving braking and moving out and the car coming out from the carpark quite early.�
Easy for me to say in hindsight, but in a situation like that, I often move one lane over in preparation of just such instances (yeah, Monday morning quarterbacking quite bad...which is easy on the video)�
�
In short - watching the video, there is a lot of predictability - may not have been like that in real life, but there may be lessons to learn from the video none the less and self examination / reflection�might be worthwhile.

Parents Fault, poor up bringing.� They have this kid to milk wealth out of insurance claim.� This is the sole function of this kid. Very sad.
�
Driver Fault, too fast, look like 40km/h to me, never slow down/stop/prepare to stop near blind spot, never attend to victim in a timely manner.

Well George was right to chop the tree that time

If it were an 80 yo. I will pick remains al
Stream overreacted slightly by swerving out so much but mostly is the car that is coming out exceeded the white line. People like these cause accidents.�
�
IMO, the car didn't just exceed the white line. Seems like he didn't even stop at the white line. From the rear camera, can see that the car exiting was taking up the whole left lane already.

The driver is very careless and only care to reach his destination. Driving in hdb area should be under 50km/h. Obviously he is speeding and distracted. If the boy is my Son, sure I give the driver Teruk Teruk! Be a responsible driver not hurting the minor on the road. Drove on road for more than 25 years, always look out for pedestrians regardless they are on the zebra crossing or not. Hitting someone on the road should be guilty and not try to find fault on the poor kid.
the impact he did is high as the kid might have internal bleeding which might cause him to coma stage on next few days. Just pray he is alright!!! If he dies, driver, all the best to you!!!
good good, come i giv u a dislike.�
seriously? Did you see the video? The kid dashed across from a blind spot! There is no way the driver could have averted the accident. The onus is on the boy not to have crossed the rd in front of a big vehicle and not watching for traffic.The driver is very careless and only care to reach his destination.

we can spare him the blame but we have to blame the parents for failing to teach him to cross the rd safely. I just showed my 11 yo daughter the video and used it as a lesson on crossing the rd safelyHe is a minor though after all. Spare him the blame as he is already suffering.
Gone are the hey days....
Nowadays very desolated. Minimum caretaking. Alot of mosquitoes. Even if you bring your kids, it will just be an empty riding park with simulated roads and structures.
But the main idea about Road Safety Park is to have the "drivers", "riders", "pedestrians", NPCC cadets pretending to be TP to expose the chewren to simulated road conditions and to teach and show them the rules and safety tips in practise.
My son been there as a TP during one NPCC outing. A few primary skool kids called him uncle! LOL!

From your avatar i think the answer is clear..cb..think i cannibal ah
After watching the video, yes I think it is hard to react in time to avoid hitting the boy, but what happens after the boy is hit? I read that the boy got up and went away before the ambulance came. Did he suffer any major injuries, did the driver alight and offer help, did he report the case to the police, did he take the the contact of the boy, or did he just drove off?
�
Yes, I agree is a matter of wrong time wrong place for the driver, bad bad luck is all I can offer him/her as consolation. However, from the footage of the video, and what I have read, it seems like the driver did not offer help to the boy after the accident. Is this correct?
�
I think the law state that even if we hit an animal, we are to alight and offer help, otherwise it would be a case of hit and run ( I hope I am correct, please correct me if I am wrong), and it is a human being we are talking about here, and a young helpless one. Never mind the fact that the boy was the cause of the whole incident, the driver did hit him and he flew away.
�
If this case was not reported, and now that it has gone public, would �the police classified this as a "hit and run" case?�
�
I hope the boy learn his lesson, and help to spread the message to his friends and mates on road safety. This also remind us all drivers again, please alight and offer assistance if we ever hit someone, human or animals alike. Never mind who is the cause, we need to make sure that life is not endanger before anything else, less we get sleepless nights and nightmares for the rest of our life...
I wonder what you will say if you are the unlucky driver to encounter a jayRUNNER dashing into the path of your car and you knock him/her down being unable to avoid the collision.
�
From the video you can conclude the driver was speeding. Fantastic CSI skill. Please go sign up to join Traffic Police.
�
Lastly, kindly stop your senseless preaching, which is totally irrelevant to the case in point.

Looks like there are many angry drivers on the road. I believe we have forgotten the basic traffic rules on the road. Though been driving daily on the road. Courtesy and good road sense are still the main core to get home safely to my family. Without harming others, I can sleep better every night and see my kids at home. Being a safe driver is important, please be mindful of words use online. If not, you are no different from the careless driver...please repent before it is too late!!! Life is short, it is important for us to do the right thing, not get things right. I have received multiples ugly words from you guys, no worries, it is not getting me agitated but allow more people to know�that good social etiquette online is significant and we are moving away from it.

U dun even hv gd social online etiquette and u expect ppl to give you tat?! Ur profile pic also give us an impression u r nothing but a dirty o' man! We dun hv many angry drivers on the road but probably self-righteous like u. U seem to enjoy telling ppl alot of "should hv", why dun u tell ur mum what will happen if she "should hv" married someone else but not ur dad? Do note that this is not a personal attack but a reflection of what u r doing to others! We know we cant get u mad but ur post indeed make real righteous ppl mad. We both felt sad for both kid & driver. Driver suay cant avoid & kids should not hv to go thru this experience to learn how to be safe on roads.
I do pity kids being knocked down cos I think it is a hard lesson for them especially when they are still in learning stage. Ptiy the o' folks too, can tell they r hoping they can be faster themselves by their willpower but cant in reality.
�
I hv to be honest that I no longer pity full grown well-abled yaya adults who sometimes really deserve to be knocked down to let them wake up when crossing the roads & those reckless motorist as well.
To those harping on the fact that the driver did not step out immediately after the accident, I would applaud your calmness if *touch wood* a similar incident happens to you and you would react like what you said on hindsight.

�
not difficult cos it was a small boy that you hit, first reaction is quickly step out to see if he was ok. no need to be on hindsight.
�
I mentioned before a bike knock me from the back and he fell, my first reaction was get out to see how bad was he although he keep apologising. I didn't even bother with the damage on my car and check his bike as ok and if he need to go hospital.

�
Don't talk cock lah .... are you sure that if you are in the same situation, you can avoid the accident. Accident are accident ... it happens,�
�
And it has nothing to do with angry drivers.
I think in this case, the speed at which the car is traveling is only factor for how badly the kid will be injured.�
�
At a reasonable speed of 40km/hr to 60km/hr, I believe no driver would be able to stop in time. Even if it is a manual cyclist encountering such situation, I doubt they can avoid running down this kid.�
�
Lastly, I don't think the car was speeding even the video makes it look like it was. The car was probably in the midst of accelerating. The kid appeared in front of the bus at the 0:02 mark, impact was at 0:03.
It would be reasonable to assume that the driver only noticed the kid half a second later and applied brakes immediately. That's just half a second of reaction time for the driver. Unless the driver is expecting something to appear out of nowhere from the bus, then I certainly, think the driver reacted reasonably well under the circumstances. The powerful braking also probably save the kid's life.
�
Let's be reasonable and say that pedestrian has to do their part. The kid is as good as crossing the road blind-folded and leave the consequences to God to decide. And he was lucky. No amount of care by drivers is going to help to avoid such accidents. All road users must do their own part. Don't leave your part to others to take care.�
�
That said, I wonder why the driver didn't go up to check on the kid he just ran down. Too shock?

Do pardon me then for using the word "us" as u probably felt it involves u and unintentionally stepped on ur tail. I agree that his avatar has nothing to do with his comments
�
Yes I did bring his parents into the pic but by no means a personal attack I stress. So may I know which part is a personal attack? By just mentioning his parents? By posing a question concerning his parents for him to answer? I can try to amend my comments if it caused u great distress.�
�
But I personally do feel that some ppl just needed to be treated this way (personal attack if u prefer to label it) by having such qns posed to them, to let them feel the position they put others into with their replies tats all.

I'm likely in the minority on this, and I'm probably gonna get flamed and possibly "disliked" - that's OK - just remember to leave your name and not be an anonymous coward about it, I won't bite back.
�
But I don't agree with this relentless persecution of street racing. Yes, it's illegal. But if they're doing it away from other earthly traffic at ungodly hours on a deserted road, who, other than themselves (and possibly willing participants/spectators) are they really putting at risk?�
�
The TP are diverting resources to catching people at ungodly hours like these in addition to putting people on bridges (and yes, they do this to catch non-racing speeders on empty roads in the wee hours too). Meanwhile, road hazards during rush hour are allowed to continue - dangerously overloaded trucks, weaving and lane-splitting bikes, irresponsible pedestrians, cyclists and e-cyclists. I know it's fallacious to attribute the lack of enforcement of some important things to the enforcement of other things, but it does seem like they're "squeezing the balloon" of limited resources, or maybe even going for the low-hanging fruit. Revenue-generation, example-making, and all that.
�
Street racing should remain illegal. But catch the really egregious garang ones like those guys at Orchard Gudang mixing it up with "innocent traffic". Don't gun for these guys who are keeping it to the ulu places late at night and who don't put the innocent at risk. If and when you build a track in Singapore, I'll say you can go all out and catch people, but until then, a little restraint can be shown.

I also kena near IMM area along Boon Lay Way last week, BMW decided to rush out from filter lane even though I was about 5M away from him, true enough, the BMW scraped into my left rear side. His argument was that I should have stopped my car for him to exit and he didn't see any Give Way line.
dunno to cry or laugh...![]()
15 July 2016 - 11:42 AMAdrianliNo sound in the VCR, but my guess is the taxi must have horn at the VW when the VW filtered out into the main road. The road ahead of the VW �(lane 3) was cleared, why did he jammed his brake twice? I suppose he bay song tio horn, so did it on purpose. Anyway, the taxi waited for the VW to clear so far ahead before moving off, I think that was good enough, he didn't gave chase. But as he filtered right and most likely wanting to turn right into toh guan east road, see what the VW did, he purposely cut ahead dangerously to block the Taxi.
�
A case of young, high ego new driver is my thought. And maybe he still has the mind set that you hit my back and I am protected. Interesting to see what is the outcome. I think this "you hit my back and you are wrong" concept has to change...
�
The taxi never wait lah. Can see that the taxi driver got out from the taxi when the car stopped. Assume to confront the polo but it ran away instead. Noticed the jerk in the recording, its caused by closing of the car door. Those in car cameras using suction cups type of holder will experience such jerking motion more than those that uses double sided tape.
At least the taxi driver never swerve to the other lane like my incident. He braked and stopped in his own lane.

I think you are right on the taxi driver alight part...LOL
�
But seriously, I am no saint, I think I would have alight also if I were the taxi driver...LOL
�
My point is, without the recording, taxi confirm is up lorry. Road condition dry, traffic moderate, traffic light red (i think), VW has come to stop already, and taxi bang direct from behind. But case in point is, there was an intention to cause an accident by the VW driver.
15 July 2016 - 12:05 PMEWanderi think you call him a jerk is being polite already... �
�
from so far away can see the VW already fully in his lane.. he still go smack the butt..�
�
and still have the god damn cheek to post this video thinking that he can be justified to cause and accident... �
�
VW is a cb kia.. watever reason.. but cab driver is much worse imo�
I chose to differ....think the cab is a bad tempered driver(like most of us, maybe not u but me definitely, wifey complained that I become an angry man behind wheels
�). He most likely horned to show his 'displeasure' and I think he is driving quite fast as well. But u can c that he waited for a good distance b4 continuing his drive off and he went to the first lane. Meaning he wants to get on with his business and journey. The VW chap jus wanna play punk and cut his lane and jam break. This resulted in the accident. IMO u can horn, u can wind down ur window and scold, whatever but y wanna create accident. Cars in SG beri exp u know...buay xim tia meh? So conclusion the VW the bigger of the 2 jerks!

15 July 2016 - 12:28 PMWeez911For this type of accident, the insurance company for the cab will contest in court for a lower liability. Both lawyers will fight it out. I suspect the liability will be 50/50, reason being the VW has stopped repeatedly in a rash manner with the intention to cause accident. I won't be surprised if VW driver suffers higher liability to be honest if the judge reviews the whole recording.

2. These racers are likely to bring the fun to the next level... Street racings for more kicks and funner

15 July 2016 - 09:02 PMTurboflat4No worries bro, I welcome dissenting opinions. I don't think the sort caught for street racing to now are the "no good poor loser" sort, do you? More like the pampered by rich relatives sort. I don't think they're likely to turn bad. Ironically, the prison sentence will probably do far more to affect the trajectory of their lives than a little street racing - a prison record can wreck your whole white collar future in this strait laced judgmental place. So the judgment does more harm than good in my opinion.Turboflat4, the problem is allowing such illegal racing at quiet, secluded places have the following issues, real, imagined or waiting to happen or still in movie scripts or in movies :

I take a humorous view and will be a flame b4 you... � the pressure is mine.
Seriously, it is not something I personally am for. If they have more sense and burning desire to race please go to a safer place like racetracks. At the end of the day, why is a simple and easy way to do so not used?
Thanks for sharing your views. It's always refreshing and usually out of the law... I mean the norm type. You lead a fulfilling life... Kudos to that.
Safe ride
Cheers
With regard to racetracks, why do we still not have a single one, not even a dragstrip, but we have too damn many golf courses? I know the old fogeys in white love to waste their lives away on the green, but some of us prefer to waste our lives on the Green Hell. Or at least a local equivalent, watered down as it may be. I think there's definitely demand. As I said, once it's built, there will br absolutely no more excuse for any sort of public street racing or speed trials. There is room, by the way. CEC is frequently used for car events, they can just make it a dedicated setup. And there are even better options in the really ulu places.
(Don't talk about Malaysia, that's another country, we need one *here*).

If this is in Singapore, then we now know why there are hoggers on Lane 1 and why Lane 2 are always filled with trucks and other big vehicles!�
19 July 2016 - 09:34 AMJoseph22Sometime drive Too Long on the road will be a bit numb and body take over... Think this is what happen...In that split second, he had to decide to move left or right. I guess he was hoping that the taxi driver stopped his car then the civic will zoomed past on the left.
The taxi should not just chiong out followed the car in front of him. He never checked properly before turning...
Actually I do feel taxi at fault.
19 July 2016 - 09:36 AMVratenzaDon't think he hogging lah, that stretch is the part where traffic from Telok Blangah Road all try to join the upramp to Keppel Viaduct from the extreme left of the 4 lane section. As the section is relatively short, a lot of them takes on more risky lane filtering manoeuvre �in order to make it to the right most lane in time.
�
From the video all those who seem to be "overtaking" are in fact from the left most lane from Telok Blangah Road
�
Hahaha...Bro Karlzeiss...what car you driving ? How come every car want to overtake you?�
�
19 July 2016 - 09:50 AMFireball0088Actually, if the civic just keep to his lane instead of swerving left, he would have made it even at that high speed also. I guess he panicked and didn't know what to do. Swerve left already then realise cannot make it so jam brake but the wheels locked up and couldn't swerve back to the right lane.
�
My guess (guess only hor) is the Civic was traveling at high speed on the right lane. Then the Estima was cruising at 55km/h also on the right lane which made the Civic filtered from the right to left. The Civic wanted to move back to the right lane but the Taxi came out. So at that point, he decided to move back to the left hoping that the Taxi would stopped. Guess that was why the Civic didnt brake until it was too late.�
�
As for the taxi, based on assumption again, he didnt really see the Civic because it could have been blocked by the Estima and until it was too late. Based on the two car cam video, it sure looked like a gloomy day. So gloomy day, f&f black colored car, the taxi turning busy looking out for the car turning in front of him and wanting to rush across.... accident
�
Another thing I noticed was the second cam car. It was moving off from the bus bay and made the Civic moved to the right lane to avoid it just in case it came out the bay without checking.
�
On hindsight, the Civic should have just brake the moment he saw the taxi. He could have stopped in time... �
�
(p.s. There was a mandatory give way to bus exiting from the bay - probably that was also one of the reason he was drifting from left to right)
30%/70%, civic take most of the blame?
�
Not sure. For me, I will give 50/50 or most blame to the Taxi for failure to look out for cars. But I will fine the Civic jialat jialat for excessive speed...

not road hog lah, there is only one lane going up the keppel�viaduct, all vehicle have to start filter in early cos you never know how soon the jam going to start queuing up.
19 July 2016 - 10:12 AMBeehive3783There are 2 lanes to access Keppel up-ramp from day 1 leh.
�
Don't think he hogging lah, that stretch is the part where traffic from Telok Blangah Road all try to join the upramp to Keppel Viaduct from the extreme left of the 4 lane section. As the section is relatively short, a lot of them takes on more risky lane filtering manoeuvre �in order to make it to the right most lane in time.
�
From the video all those who seem to be "overtaking" are in fact from the left most lane from Telok Blangah Road

Nope. There are 2 lanes now.

With hindsight I should have stick to lane 2 since I was trying to be very caution during rush hour on this stretch of road.

19 July 2016 - 11:43 AMMockngbrdNope, Taxi will take majority of the blame. Civic's speed cannot be 100% determined, even with video.
Video does not show any recklessness on Civic's part. No weaving in/out, no dangerous lane cutting, just maybe going quicker than normal. But again, the speed cannot be 100% determined.
Even if the Civic was going fast, the fast driving did NOT cause the accident, it might have contributed as a factor, but the accident was entirely caused by Taxi driver's misjudgement and turning without checking for traffic.
Also, Taxi is turning while Civic going straight, it is also not a traffic junction, onus is on the taxi driver to check clear,�Taxi driver will take majority of fault. $10 bet.�

Yes civic can be shown as speeding, but actual speed cannot be 100% determined, unless you think mata/insuran going to wanna spend $$$$$$$ csi the video, in most likelihood, they'll just make the taxi driver jiak the liability unless taxi driver got $$$ to fight.

Speeding is not always reckless driving. Reckless driving is not always speeding either.��
I agree with your last statement as I am always guilty of both, thus my own personal interest.
�
The authorities will judge according to the cause and effect of this case, which the cause is Civic speeding and Taxi turning without due consideration, effect of course is the accident.
�
So they will look at why the Civic is driving faster than the video speed of 53km/h(+/-), on a 2 lane road, speed limit probably 50-60km/h.
The higher the speed difference, the higher the responsibility of the Civic, that's what I assume.
�
I do not foresee the taxi taking larger share of the blame, regardless, because no.1 it is obvious Civic is speeding, no.2 Civic changed lane without signalling and no.3 if the authorities decides that if a person was jaywalking instead of a taxi turning, what would have been the consequences? I doubt Civic would be let off easy.
�
Oh Addendum: the reckless charge could arrive if the authorities questions the Civic decision to drive above speed limit in an area like this, endangering other road users and pedestrians, highly raising chances of accidents.

I still think taxi can push around 70% blame to the civic la. Their lawyer very good one. Seen taxi get out of getting 100% blame from rear end accident before also. If only got the first video from the car in the bus bay, hard for taxi driver to argue. But now with the new video from the car being overtaken by the civic, taxi can argue it was clear and he know can clear cuz civic was going to right lane but how he know the civic decided to change his path and aim for his taxi after he took the turn. The video does show clearly that if the civic did not change lanes so suddenly without signalling, he wouldn't have hit the taxi.
badly damaged meh? looks ok what.�
�
This Taxi the side very hard one leh. My dad ever drove this as a relief and t-boned by a bus that ran red light. Damage also not as bad as this even though the bus never even brake.
My guess (guess only hor) is the Civic was traveling at high speed on the right lane. Then the Estima was cruising at 55km/h also on the right lane which made the Civic filtered from the right to left. The Civic wanted to move back to the right lane but the Taxi came out. So at that point, he decided to move back to the left hoping that the Taxi would stopped. Guess that was why the Civic didnt brake until it was too late.�
�
As for the taxi, based on assumption again, he didnt really see the Civic because it could have been blocked by the Estima and until it was too late. Based on the two car cam video, it sure looked like a gloomy day. So gloomy day, f&f black colored car, the taxi turning busy looking out for the car turning in front of him and wanting to rush across.... accident
�
Another thing I noticed was the second cam car. It was moving off from the bus bay and made the Civic moved to the right lane to avoid it just in case it came out the bay without checking.

Not sure. For me, I will give 50/50 or most blame to the Taxi for failure to look out for cars. But I will fine the Civic jialat jialat for excessive speed...
�
Nowadays they don't teach drivers where to swerve if really got to avoid an accident? My driving instructor did tell me that if really going to t-bone someone, best it to aim for the rear of their car at the boot area cuz that part won't be as hard as the middle or the front.�

1. Based on the clip, I would say Civic's speed is about 10 to 15 km/h faster than the cam car. So if cam car is driving at 50, then civic maybe around 65.�
�
2. The taxi driver made a bad call. He took for granted there will be no car speeding that fast and assume cars going straight will slow down a bit when he is turning.�
�
3. Civic's driving skill not as good as it should be.�
19 July 2016 - 01:15 PMJoseph22Point 2- taxi drive likely didn't check. When he turn the civic is only 5 to 6 car space away??1. Based on the clip, I would say Civic's speed is about 10 to 15 km/h faster than the cam car. So if cam car is driving at 50, then civic maybe around 65.

19 July 2016 - 02:14 PMBavarianI am with Mockngbrd Spawn and Fireball0088 on this. The primary cause of the accident was the taxi crossing the path of the Civic. The taxi should have yielded. We learn when turning right across traffic, give way to on coming vehicles. It does not have any other clauses such as unless it is speeding, or a modded civic or driven by an a**hole. You just give way.i'm actually with Mockngbrd on this...
even IF the civic is speeding
even IF the civic is heavily modified
even IF the civic undertake the car cam
the onus is on the taxi driver to be ALERT, drive defensively. if you see a speeding car, or you know your lau pok chia cannot make it, why you still wanna attempt? the taxi driver failed to practise defensive driving ... when in doubt, DONT MOVE. wait for traffic to be clear if no confidence. he is turning from a minor to major, he has to give way regardless ... even driving instruction will say, "turn when it is SAFE to do so"... when you see a "speeding" car ... why risk it to save a few seconds.
The question here is: Did the taxi driver see he oncoming civic? If he did, why did he move? If he did not, why did he move?

most probably he only looked once when the car in front took the turn, that was when the civic was still further from the bus stop. By the time for him to make a turn, he probably assume the civic is not speeding or intend to slow down where the cam car was only at the bus stop.

If you cannot filter out safely it means you did not take into consideration the conditions of the vehicles on the main road notwithstanding the civic was most definitely speeding.

Yes but this accident would also have happened if (2a) the civic was travelling within speed limit. Imagine yourself as the civic driver driving safely, defensively and the MCF way when the taxi decided to cross your path last minute. Still bang.

I think pity that when they apportion the percentage... the taxi will end up taking most of the blame. But that's the law I guess.
�
EDIT:
�
The few times I've taken transcab taxis, I've noticed the drivers are somewhat old... a cousin doing projects for them also said they are more inclusive and tend to hire oldies and disabled people more.
�
Feel sorry for the taxi driver... me having a soft spot for oldies and such...�

Transcab also hire those rejected by comfort. I went to their office at defu before and they allow the drivers to pay rental by cash daily. Thats another good reason for old drivers to join them as most probably dont have a bank account and/or short on cash.�

Notice Paper No.�76 of 2015 Question No. 214 For Written Answer For Parliament Sitting On Or After�5�March 2015�
MP: Ms Irene Ng Phek Hoong
To ask the Minister for Manpower (a) how many taxi drivers, including relief taxi drivers, are there currently; (b) of these, how many are active taxi drivers on the roads; � what is their (i) average annual salary; (ii) average educational qualification; (iii) age profile; and (d) how many have been formerly working in PMET jobs and switched to driving taxis.
Answer�
- As at December 2014, about 98,000 Singaporeans held a Taxi Driver�s Vocational Licence. About 56,000 of them were registered with taxi companies. The average net monthly earnings (less expenses) of taxi drivers in 2014 was $3,173 for a single-shift operation, and $5,933 for a two-shift operation.
- Of the employed resident taxi drivers in 20141, about 8 in 10 were aged 50 and above, and over 9 in 10 possessed non-tertiary educational qualifications. We do not have data on how many taxi drivers were formerly in PMET jobs.

Looks like this is an old man's profession... guess I have to be more patient with them around.
19 July 2016 - 06:18 PMJoseph22He is smart.. He want the taxi driver to bang his side...It could have been avoided if the Civic braked instead of gunning for the gap in front of the Taxi.

You are sharp, did not notice it first time!
Persistent blinking lights means malfunction traffic lights? Possibly one of the traffic lights or the "control box" was hit by the vehicle during the accident, causing the "circuit" to malfunction.
Yes, in rollover seat belts minimise injuries.
Hope occupants ok.

sure or not? last car pay for all the cars in front?
21 July 2016 - 07:24 PMJellandrossAccording to chain collision scenario in BOLA. Back car only claim immediate front car and so forth. No more last car bao ga liao. Even if all got car videos to show it's solely last car's fault, not sure if the insurers will deviate from guideline and all claim last car.

22 July 2016 - 11:24 AMECONOMICAgree with you. All cars should have camera. GO get it guys!No video then cannot prove what you said is true.....
22 July 2016 - 11:36 AMECONOMICThe 'very standard' and 'always front car claim back car' are what the A-WS told me too.In chain collision, as long as you are not the last car. You are OK.
The claim procedure is "very standard". You are better off to go A-WS for repair lor. As you will be assign a portion of the total liability.
Last car ownself claim ownself lor.
For your case, just claim the car behind lor. And you don't have to pay excess.
I also kenna before. But Income released me of all liability lor. ????
Also agree on better to go A-WS. On this, let me share for awareness. ... the workshop touts arrived swiftly to accident scene and make me very pissed off. Have to spend half my energy to ask them to **** off, while handling the situation (raining, 4 cars owners to exchange details, huge traffic jam). They are VERY persistant. I can understand, because I heard that they will receive 3k commission immediately by bringing victims to their friend's workshop. The touts got about 3 of the victims. If I have followed the tout and not gone to my insurance assigned premium workshop, I may not have gotten the right deals, including a replacement car.
Bro Appletree, did your NCD get affected? If so, how much? I wonder how u managed to be released of all liability. Thx
22 July 2016 - 11:56 AMECONOMICWas told that that's the previous old rule. New one is as per what one bro described above.Our insurance ruling is such ....last car insurance pay for everyone
Just to add... something is not morally and technically sound regarding the front car claim back car rule in chain collision. It will not discourage illicit touts from workshop and bad driving habits (stop suddenly to change direction, view road signs or taxi pick up passenger). They all can do so with zero insurance and legal cost. DISAGREE!
If can prove front most car is at fault, all cars behind should claim that one car in front.
All get camera please.
