[deathan9el]

just some comments on fb seem to suggest that. However there are comments to say that it is not true. There seems no official announcement either. That’s a relief.

spinal injury no joke

to lose another will be so much devastating for the family to take :/

I am reminded of a phrase. Something like “accidents don’t just happen. There is a chain of events”. Also called the swiss cheese model. All the holes must line up for the light to go through. As long as something is not aligned, the accident will not happen

What people do to shirk responsibility is to look at what might not be aligned but was aligned and then say it’s not my fault. If only….

Like the SAAB. Maybe the forum if they want to say the Saab driver is innocent, say it’s not his fault. If only the Merc and bike gave way, people look left and right before moving off etc etc. even if it’s shared responsibility, the responsibility has been diverted liao.

It’s a bit like a man goes to a pub, sees a lot of sexy girls then gets horny , goes out and rapes someone and then says if only when I went to the pub people don’t dress so skimpy I won’t be horny and I won’t rape so “not my fault” or “partially must blame the crowd at the pub”

What’s also sad is nothing is mentioned about the 57yo lady who died. She may have no family , if Pakcik dies like that no one will know and mourn too.

From the videos, merc is also a bit of an aggressive driver.

It’s a driver(s) issues.

Not every issue, one needs to look towards the Authorities.

No la, car issue, need to ban car. Imagine you replace speeding car with speeding ebike..

with our crazily lenient laws against errants drivers, most likely the culprit is just gonna end up with a light slap on the wrist

There is another serious tampines accident before this:

Not sure the other car was a saab, from the shape of the car doesn't look like it

 

[deathan9el]

should it be made mandatory for driving license here to last only for a short period? 6 months maybe?

to extend it, they will then be required to be tested on the roads again, just like how before they earned it back then, under the guidance of a driving instructor

seems that after they earned it, some are becoming that reckless & throwing out all the knowledge on what they had learned before

the saab driver shld get mandatory death penalty...

Still got cheek to appeal? Hope judge increase his sentence during appeal

Still got cheek to appeal? Hope judge increase his sentence during appeal

Best to do life time prison.

After this tragic accident hope the judges can mete our harsher penalties for this appeal and set precedent for this matter

Ought to get the knn driver to pay for all the vehicles damage, loss income,hospital bills plus compensation ..make him broke..live a pauper life..make life difficult for everyone involved

 

[qhong61]

News reported he was conscious

Hope he survive.
