Sgkingkong Neutral Newbie August 3, 2010 Share August 3, 2010 Was stopped at the traffic lights this morning... a motorbike while trying to get through between me and the car on the right hit my mirrror... and ran away. My first reaction was to assess the damage, thus not taken down the number. Sadly, a long scratch was left on the mirror :( ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffang Neutral Newbie August 3, 2010 Share August 3, 2010 even u get the number also cannot do any claim... unless u want to use a lawyer to claim... this is singapore... mine with video... report police as hit & run... then police say no case... since the owner say NO! the first time i pay $600 to repair myself... when the car just bang my side & go... and $2000 for someone hit my car after he is drunk at town area... also with video... but 2nd time i never report.. as i know no use... unless i want to spent $5000-$10000 to claim back my $2000... this is part of owning a car...

Zyrofillica 1st Gear August 3, 2010 Share August 3, 2010 sad to say, not much we can do in hit and run if no one is injured. Police dun care, lawyers care only if u have $$$, god is blind, mp say Fcuk u, and there is no such thing as superman. suck thumb and either live with it, forget and forgive, or buy a rpg and place it in your car for instances like this. Make sure u get your vengeance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonTan 2nd Gear August 5, 2010 Share August 5, 2010 No wonder Police can PROUDLY claim crime rate down. Even with video evidence, as long as the other party says NO. There is no case. This is Singapore justice for you. You say no count, AhKong says count! "this is singapore... mine with video... report police as hit & run... then police say no case... since the owner say NO!"

Yenyenpark 1st Gear August 8, 2010 Share August 8, 2010 (edited) even u get the number also cannot do any claim... unless u want to use a lawyer to claim... this is singapore... mine with video... report police as hit & run... then police say no case... since the owner say NO! the first time i pay $600 to repair myself... when the car just bang my side & go... and $2000 for someone hit my car after he is drunk at town area... also with video... but 2nd time i never report.. as i know no use... unless i want to spent $5000-$10000 to claim back my $2000... this is part of owning a car... if u get that person and he/she refused to stop or settle, and u can prove the damage, it's HIT and RUN.. or any witness to see that will also do I reported a foreign motorbike and manage to get a police report and lodged to IDAC.. The police said they can't go and catch in Malaysia but can ban them from coming.. This is good enough for me.. :) My friend's mum was caught HIT and RUN in MSCP, and that's because 1 witness saw her rammed into the parked car, and run away.. that's all I really can't think of any reason why it's not HIT and RUN, unless your case abit too weak to support?

Jeffang Neutral Newbie August 8, 2010 Share August 8, 2010 the only thing police do was post a letter to the car owner/driver... then i got to wait for their reply... and this take 2mth for a small singapore... after 2 mth... police tell me no case... as the owner say he is not there... then i show police the video... they tell me to get my own lawyer to sue... once prove that the owner is there... then they will charge him for false report... anyway unless someone die in a hit & run... if not police will not work to check... so next time some car hit u... u got to get the car to stop then exchange tel number... if not no case... this is singapore... i havegive up long time ago...
