Cyclist flung onto front windscreen
HER car rammed into a cyclist from the rear so hard that he flew and hit the front windscreen, cracking part of it, before rolling onto the road.
But Cleopatra Wong Yuin Ping, 30, thought the body that smashed into the windscreen was a rotten tree branch that had fallen.
She did not bother to stop and continued driving her car along Holland Road.
Wong was also unaware that her victim's bicycle was stuck in the undercarriage of the Lexus ES300 belonging to her father, despite the noise of the bicycle scraping against the road.
The bicycle was dragged for about 2km before it was dislodged.
When Wong, who was a teacher then, reached home, she went to bed.
She realised something was wrong only when she woke up in the morning and found out that the police had towed away the five-year-old Lexus.
Taken to court over the accident, Wong claimed that the soundproofing of the Lexus was so good that she thought the "sounds" she heard were caused by the tree branch.
Last month, she was fined a total of $2,400 – $800 on each of three charges – and disqualified from driving for a year.
She had pleaded guilty to inconsiderate driving, failing to stop after an accident and failing to render assistance after an accident.
Wth sia~~~

Her “can’t be bother” attitudes will continues, as others are lesser mortals.

That's what I'm thinking too! ![]()
Good sound proofing can be a valid excuse for not watching what's in the front of the car when driving, and knocking down cyclists like tree trunks.
But I wonder if I can hear other drivers honking at me on a quiet road at 5 am in the morning, coz the sound proofing is so Good.
it's in the news .......
she got off with only a fine .......
was the cyclist one of the many banglas who insist on cycling at night wearing dark clothing?
probably this:
1.Shes a mentally retarded housewive dependent on her dear old husband for moolah, so given shes retarded, its a wonder she can drive in the first place, so, option 1. is out
2.ITS A FAT LIE, so there, shes smart enough to drive, so how can she think a cyclist is a branch? get real, at least give a believeable expanation will ya? u mean what? its so foggy in singapore not only did u not hear u hitting the cyclist, u couldnt see him as well? how retarded.
so conclusion? shes jus retarded:)
