3 die in Dunearn Road Car Crash
-
PREPARATIONS for a wedding ended in three deaths, with a fourth young man fighting for his life in hospital. All four were in a rental car on their way to get decorations to turn the Hyundai Avante they were in into a wedding car when it crashed along Dunearn Road, near Chancery Court, at 2.20 am on Sunday. The impact of the crash threw all four out of the car. The sole survivor, Mr Mohammad Alif Mohamed Shah, 19, was fighting for his life on Sunday night, as his family members kept vigil at Tan Tock Seng Hospital. Two of them, Mr Mohammad Khalil Mohamad Shah, 23, elder brother of Mr Mohammad Alif, and Mr Sunthereswaran Nadesan Mariyappan, 23, died on the spot. The third casualty, Mr Jaya Kumar Asokan, 27, a bus driver, who was also admitted to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, died of severe injuries within 12 hours of the accident. He was believed to have been the driver of the silver Hyundai Avante, a 1.6-litre car. The four were on their way to Mustafa Centre in Little India.

wat contribute to the crash?
-
1. Just after a cross junction by Chancery Court on Dunearn Road, the car skidded across the 3-lane road
2. Tread marks at the scene suggested the car slammed into the opposite kerb, smashing it into pieces
3. Next the car slammed into a tree - the tree trunk appeared skinned off up to about 2m, indicating the car might have been airborne at the time
4. The Hyundai stopped inside the bushes beside the canal. All 4 men had been flung out of the car. 2 were killed on the spot. A 3rd man died less than 12 hrs later

another fatal accident....
newspaper said the hyundai is few months old and is in good condition. i think the driver might have been speeding and then lost control -
another case of young drivers accident... do agree tat hving passengers flung out of car is some serious stunt hes trying to pull... speed at 120km/h?

To have all 4 pasengers flung out of the car... is quite a feat. In my opinion it is only possible when 1)the vehicle was travelling at an insane speed at impact with the tree that rip the 4 passengers out of their seatbelts or 2)all four of them didn't have their seatbelts on at all.

should have rented merc
might have been 2 dead 2 in hospital
-
I believe if the rear passengers were wearing selt belt, they will not be flung out of the car. Just remember to belt up next time, car manufacturer install them for a reason.

i dunnno izzit qiao-he or what..... always accident i see the car is Hyundai Avante..
-
yup, noticed that avante drivers are usually quite reckless
-
Maybe the car has bad handling. I don't know, i don't really like Korean cars. Some of them 'float' at only 110km/h. Like my dad's previous Daewoo. Terrible car that one!

Please rmb that the car u driving r not racing tune for u to race on normal road with bend , every car can speed above 150km/h but not the brake and tyres to hold u well at high speed cornering. That's why those sport brake disc and tyres cost so EX.
