Accident SLE/CTE
-
Just sad to see a motorcyclist lying motionless and seriously injured on the road this morning. The implication means a family behind is also "injured" if he is the sole bread winner.
Drivers up there, please be more careful while changing lanes. Turn your head over the shoulder to check for blind spots. The rear and side mirrors are just not sufficient to cover all areas. -

This kinda driver should be shot!

Last night I was driving on the ECP towards the east at about 7pm, the portion from Benjamin Sheares Bridge, descending on a slope towards the Fort Road exit, many cars were travelling haltingly. There was a Lexus RX300 travelling behind me, and an Indian lady was behind the steering wheel with an old man next to her. The car in front of me slammed the brakes, and so I followed suit. The Indian almost lost control of her vehicle as she was picking up speed on the downslope, and I could see the vehicle veering to the left, almost sending the Vios on her left slamming to the left, cascading the impact sidewards.
In my mind, I was thinking: What the hell was she trying to do? Why step on the accelerator when u are travelling downslope??
Oh yeah. The drivers nowadays. When they crash, blame themselves. -
Drivers will never learn the soft way unless they see it with their own eyes or get it themself

Thats why Singapore should show to first time drivers when they're learning how to drive, videos like 'faces of death'.Originally posted by johncooper:Drivers will never learn the soft way unless they see it with their own eyes or get it themself
In this video, it depicts all the fatal accidents caused by cars, mcycles, bicycles and pedestrians. Pretty gruesome details of people's bodies mangled under bus or arms torned off by the force of the collison. And to top it off, these are real scenes!!!

I do sympathize and always keep an eye out for bikers. However, they really should learn that they are vunerable themselves... a good 90% (seems to me anyway) of bikers here think they are made of steel. Weaving through traffic, cutting dangerously infront of cars... squeezing inches between cars travelling at 80, 90, 100 km/h on the highway, etc.Originally posted by Phua:Just sad to see a motorcyclist lying motionless and seriously injured on the road this morning.

Too many times I had to hit my brakes at traffic lights when they turn green, cause some biker shot between cars and cut right in front of me as I was moving off.
These bikers are nothing more than road casualties waiting to happen. It's always easy to blame the driver cause he's protected in his car while they are out in the open on 2 wheels. People should realize though that the driver is not always to blame.
Just to clarify, I do have a class 2 license on as well as my class 3. I was always thought right from my Class 2B, 2A and 2 lessons to behave as a full vehicle on the road and stay in my lane, signal when required. Not to squeeze through traffic which is not only dangerous, but illegal. Bikers here don't seem to want to do that though... 9 out of 10 times they are to blame for their own accidents even if they do get the brunt of the collision. -
condolences

all bikers out there should be more careful while on the road, try not to hao lian and do those dangerous manourve, or else u might just end up sadly
Safety MUST come FIRST! -

But motorist too have to be extra careful on the road ... especially
those who is with passengers behind..... sometimes I do occur such near accident situations with motorists becos they are at a spot where the side mirrors are almost ompossible to see them ard... or else they are travelling at a fast pace...
Being able to drive and ride is a privilage and having the road to speed is not an entitlement..... -

This morning, I was travelling along Lentor Ave towards the SLE, and the slip road that leads into the SLE (towards CTE) was so jammed packed, trailing all the way back to Yishun Stadium.
When I finally reached there, I saw this chain accident whereby this silver car, being the 3rd car in the accident, all crushed up like some scrap metal.
Plus one car stranded on the divider between the slip road and the main road......
