Road killers man, every time it's a biker or cyclist that pays the maximum price for these garbage drivers.

Driver arrested after accident involving elderly motorcyclist in Bartley​


SINGAPORE - A 70-year-old man was taken to hospital unconscious after the motorcycle he was riding collided with a car in Bartley Road East.

The Singapore Civil Defence Force said it was alerted to the accident at the junction of Bartley Road East and Airport Road on March 15 at about 4.40pm.

In response to media queries, the police said the accident involved a car driven by a 30-year-old woman, who was arrested for careless driving without due care and attention, causing hurt.

SCDF said the motorcyclist was taken to Changi General Hospital.

Images posted on Facebook show a white car at a road junction with a fallen motorcycle in front of it. Several people, including SCDF paramedics, are seen tending to a man lying on the road.

Police investigations are ongoing.

My wife observes first hand that a good proportion of poor drivers on the roads are women, so that's one thing she doesn't fight me on. Sometimes she chuckles. Everytime we come across a lousy driver and we eventually pull up alongside, it's either a woman, an old person, or someone on the phone.
And it makes sense, since evolutionarily speaking, guys have better spacial vision, awareness and reflexes bred into us as hunters.

Old man can sue in civil court and get hundreds of thousands. My neighborhood got one case. Hit by a BMW too. BMW driver got fine and license suspended in criminal court . And need to pay 150K for injuries in civil court
This. It is almost sure win the moment the driver is allocated full responsibility.

it's red light already. The adjacent traffic already moving along. 100% the car fault. She only managed to stop after the stop line, if no bang motor, she would have been t-bone.
not say i want to ** but this kind of driver deserve to get t boned

I would not say average female driver is generally worse driver than an average male, but when female drivers are bad they are REALLY bad drivers, hence those drivers that piss us off greatly on roads till we need to slow down and stare at them do seem to tend to be females or elderly folks.
