2) install deterrence humps on the stretch of about100 meter before all traffic lights, pedestrian crossings and zebra crossings
3) phase all milo sheet cars
4) confiscate cars and fine heavily to the tune of S$1 million for each drink driving and irresponsible/ speeding drivers.

Mr Muhammad Azril Mahmood is still in Intensive Care Unit but in a stable condition.

"He's depressed and keeps blaming himself," Mr Azril's father-in-law Mohamed Kassim Yusoff told Shin Min Daily News.

"But there are counsellors helping him and we, too, try to comfort him."

Mr Kassim, who lost his granddaughter, 17-year-old Afifah Munirah Muhammad Azril, in the crash in Tampines on April 22, told the Chinese daily he was angry about the accident but "time heals".

Fascinatingly the MOT isn’t a bit concerned… not sound at all…

Thin we can do away with MOT pls…

Could have drive alternate routes, the sense of guilt will be overwhelming..

17 years of upbringing gone just like that while the selfish rich dude pay his bail on the spot and can have his lunch under aircon

Knn PCB

All this talk about conti car being better is just no different from victim blaming. If the deceased is not a car passenger but a pedestrian then is it the pedestrian's fault for rightfully crossing the road? The wrong is still with the Saab driver who sped and didn't stop at the traffic lights

Drive alternate route means he already foreseen the Saab going to speed there... Not possible.

Yup. Life is unfair. He was being a really good dad by driving his daughter to school activity.

Jail sentence is a joke here. Just a few years of jail for murdering someone? Time to change to death sentence for tragic accident. Life imprisonment if someone is seriously injured.

Somehow somewhat the light sentencing is very troubling to understand and accepting…

Is it $ n $ only will make a difference?

Still remember my late bro death was so unnecessary and preventable if only PUB had responded speedily to do the repair… He was electrocuted several hours after the supply line was struck down by thunderstorms for the whole kampung..,

We were poor and PUB walked away free… if we had $, we would hire USA lawyers to see that justice is served…

The dad will never get over it…

I witnessed how my dad would follow a young boy home cos he resembled by late bro…

the loss n pain to the family is unimaginable …

I still feel the pain now talking about it…

He stepped out after pulling a prank and that was the last I saw of him… his laughter of his successful prank stays till today…

I agree on this, for example, right now Tesla Cars are all the hype, but have you seen the car? The feel is so cheap, if I were driving one, high chance won't survive.

Must really belt up even when sitting in the rear

 

[-nyox-]

This tragedy highlighted 2 issues:
1) importance of belt up
2) safety of conti car

Can all these non conti cars / milo sheet cars be “banned”?

I have clarified this multiple times in this forum and I think your persistent claims are getting more and more ridiculous.

Frontal impact vs side impact is very different. Front and back of the vehicle have crumple zones, the side at most have a reinforced door or door frame.

If u use another vehicle to ram a BMW from the side in excess of 100kmh, the result is prob not going to be any better than a Toyota going through the same side impact.

I'm not siding any particular make, I have owned both conti and jap cars but if I were particularly concerned about passenger safety, I'd get a Volvo as they are known for their active and passive car safety features.
