Over 60 guests gathered at the Volkswagen showroom on Leng Kee Road last Friday, to get up close and personal with the facelifted Volkswagen Arteon.
Here's the recap.

TL;DR – A Toyota Wish with p-plates dangerously cuts in front of a cam car, beats the red light and almost gets t-boned by another car
There’s a reason why car insurance companies charge a premium for new drivers.
This 62-second video is one of the reasons:
What happened?
The video starts off by highlighting the exciting bits (think that’s the format SGRV is going for these days).

Yes, ALOT is happening in this video, and the title speaks for itself.
NGL, I am actually surprised I managed to summarise the entire video within the title itself.
Watch it here:
What Happened?
After entering the AYE, a Honda HRV driver decided to perform something bizarre - he changed lane into a red Lexus ES not once but TWICE, despite having empty pockets of space to switch lanes into.
During the second bump, the Lexus ES was forced into lane 2 of the AYE,
Cyclists are a menace on our roads and will continue to be one. Nuff said.
It is almost impossible for cyclists and motorists to co-exist and share our roads safely.
Here's why:
What Happened?
3 Clowns clad in their spandex cycling attire decided to tailgate and draft behind a freight truck to reduce their drag and achieve enhanced aerodynamics on West Coast Highway.
Yes, you read that right - BEHIND A FREIGHT TRUCK.
And not that it changes anything, but the th
Ever seen a car with a big plume of white smoke in its wake? Guess you are going to now!
Passers-by who happened to be in the vicinity of the local Jaguar dealership were treated to the amazing sight of a trail of billowing smoke from a black car that peeled into the premises. Watch the video here:

That's crazy! Talk about smoking!
At the start the car's smoking trail was already quite a sight to behold.
But then, t
TL;DR - A Hyundai Tucson reverses into a stationary car at the traffic lights along Esplanade Drive. Plot twist; the Tucson is a Singapore Police Force vehicle.
A video of a Singapore Police Force Hyundai Tucson reversing into another car has surfaced on SGRV’s Facebook page.
Since its posting around midnight, it has garnered a whopping 203 shares.

Touch your heart and tell me the worst type of driver on the road - In most cases, it's either car-sharing drivers or the drivers of the lethal red car plate + p-plate combination.
IMO, car sharing drivers are the worst type of drivers as they lack both driving experience and skills and also simply don't give a [email protected] about the publicly-shared car.
Watch this video here:

A BlueSG leisurely ran a red light signal along Outram Road and got t-boned HARD b
One thing that annoys me is the inability to find an available lot in a carpark - but that's part and parcel of driving, right?
However, what's worse is when you stumble upon an empty lot, and another car decides to be a d1ck and 'vultures' your parking lot away.
Just like the couple of a Mercedes-Benz GLB200 here:
What Happened?
A Singapore-registered Mercedes-Benz GLB200 swooped to the front of the cam car and stole the parking lot that the cam car was waiting for
As many of you know, and as written in many of our past articles, errant cyclists who pay little heed to traffic rules are often complained about and mocked online due to them misbehaving on the roads but quickly zipping away after, with no consequences in sight. For this very unfortunate cyclist however, he got the results of flouting the rules---- instantly.
Watch the video here to see what I mean:

Horrifying to watch

TL;DR - An owner of a BMW iX Electric gets caught charging his $460,000+ car at a public power outlet.
I pay taxes. You pay taxes. We all pay taxes. But, when you see $hit like this, you can’t help but get angry at where some of our taxpayers’ money goes to.
Watch the video here to see if it infuriates you as well:
How much is the car?
A quick search on Sgcarmart revealed that this car is the more expensive variant and costs a whopping $460,888!
It doesn't matter if you are a motorist, a pedestrian or a cyclist - road safety is of paramount importance and should be instilled in us from a young age.
NGL, I felt very heartened after witnessing what this father did for his family to ensure their safety:
What Happened?
A father stopped his bicycle to "block" oncoming traffic so that his family could cross the zebra crossing safely.
However, the cam car driver he blocked wasn't too happy with his thoughtful act to
Why sports/performance cars are called sports/performance cars is pretty self-explanatory — they are either fast on a straight line or possess superb handling abilities.
And these cars are pretty impressive...until a d0uchebag driver gets behind the wheel of one of these cars.
Watch it here:
What Happened?
The driver of a Mercedes-Benz CLS63 thought it was a good idea to cut into the path of a heavy vehicle while joining into the main road.
And he did so by lit
Road rage incidents are common, where we see cases of retaliation such as flashing signal lights or playing the braking game. I wouldn't want to be caught up in such a scenario as its unpleasant for everyone involved (some drivers thrive on this aggression however!).
Just recently, another mini spat was captured on camera and was published for the world to see. Take a look below:
Fierce meets fierce
Let us recap the crucial parts.
First, we see the driver driving as
I think all road-savvy and up-to-date drivers have heard of the phenomenon known as "accident touters". For those who are not familiar with this term, they are basically people who cause car accidents or wait for car accidents to occur, before rushing forward to offer their workshop services. Shake my head.
Recently, such an incident was sighted on the PIE. Watch the video here:
Wow, such kind-hearted people.
Or is it too good to be true?
In the video, we spotted se
There are various meanings behind tailgating or "poking" another motorist.
In general, it is used to show displeasure towards a motorist who is "road hogging" lane 1 of an expressway and telling him to move to a slower lane, or to "jio" someone to race.
Watch this video of an Audi S3 who decided to "poke" and tailgate a Honda Accord Euro R to show his displeasure:
What Happened?
Two drivers of an Audi S3 and a Honda Accord Euro R got into an online dispute over a m
Many drivers flock to the expressways or tunnels in order to have a quicker and more efficient journey. Most usually drive reasonably and abide to traffic customs and display good road etiquette.
However this Honda Vezel took the meaning of 'quick' way too seriously, and his rush to get ahead ended up affecting the poor Mitsubishi Lancer who stood in its way. See the video here:
Honda Vezel 1, Mitsubishi Lancer 0
The poor Mitsubishi Lancer! Its side mirror never stood a c
NGL, no one likes it when another driver attempts to squeeze past your parked car for fear of getting damaged.
However, it is a whole different story if you "parked" your car like an inconsiderate driver like this elderly woman:
What Happened?
An elderly lady decided to park her Toyota Yaris Cross aCROSS two lanes at the pickup/drop-off point of Marina Bay Sands.
After that, she opens her car door and proceeds to alight from the SUV.
Just then, the cam car dri
Some events are beyond our control, such as getting into an accident with another motorist, due to plain oversight on his part.
However, if you were to get into an accident on your own like this Mitsubishi driver, then you only have yourself to blame:
What Happened?
A Mitsubishi Lancer EX was travelling on lane 2 along Sengkang East Drive when he veered off course, mounted the kerb and crashed into a lamp post, sending it to the ground.
The driver then alighted from
Singaporeans in general are quite interesting. When an accident occurs, 99% are quick to whip out their cellphones to film, or to crane their necks just to kaypoh at the scene--- but end up not helping at all!
However, this man here is the 1% that actually does try to help. He actually came forward to help direct and guide the flow of traffic in the wake of an accident! Watch the video here:

Wow, really one in a million.

The popular saying, "It takes 2 hands to clap" has stuck around for a long time; and it could not be more true for many drivers locally and worldwide. I think most Singaporean drivers have this phrase engraved into their hearts, haha!
Recently, a video showing a Mercedes-Benz S-Class (cool car) misbehaving on the PIE (not cool behaviour) on the way to the ECP made its rounds on the various Facebook traffic communities, garnering a lot of activity in the comment section. Video here, below:
An act of God refers to unavoidable events that are beyond human control.
And more often than not, being in an accident is every driver's nightmare, let alone an accident involving the act of God.

While turning out to the main road along Horne road, a Honda Vezel driver failed to stop at a stop-line and rear-ends a motorcycle in front of him.

Sometimes we encounter mind-boggling sights on the road that leave us scratching our heads. What happened and how did it get there?
Recently we spotted yet another such scene circulating on one of our favourite pages:
The page had captioned it "You can't park there, Sir."

Changing lanes can be a risky manoeuvre, especially with oncoming traffic behind you - That is why:
(1) Our vehicles come with side mirrors; and
(2) We must check our blind spots before performing a lane change.
However, a BMW 520i driver does the unthinkable despite oncoming traffic approaching from behind:
What Happened?
After exiting the infamous Newton Circus Roundabout, a BMW 520i found himself stuck behind a Mercedes-Benz B-Class in a "go straight or rig
Is car blocking black cars the new trend? Apparently it is, because after the infamous Causeway license-plate-plucking incident, another copycat comes fast on its heels!
This time, in the heart of one of the seediest neighbourhoods in Singapore, and in broad daylight! You can watch the video here:
