Oh no! With another day in Singapore, yet another unfortunate traffic incident... This time, taking place at this West Coast junction.
From here, we see a police car parked behind the trailer that is lying helplessly on its side as the surrounding traffic mills past, keeping a wide berth away from the accident area, cordoned off by orange cones.

The trailer cuts a rather lonely, hulking silhouette with the space around it.
A common car-sharing Getgo vehicle gets caught on camera blatantly ignoring the existence of the red traffic light. Strange since this seems like the fundamental essentials of driving theory.
This resulted in the vehicle side sweeping an oncoming taxi and, hitting into it and resulted in debris inconveniently left on the road.
It's extremely fortunate that this blatant disregard for traffic rules did not result in a more severe and damaging accident. It might be wise for Getgo to con

In the face of rising COE premiums and shifting perceptions of car ownership, we take a look at BMW Flow to understand the allure of leasing.
Spurred both by a hunger for more flexibility, and the rise of on-demand mobility options, the idea of locking oneself down over a decade with a single car is likely to make one think twice nowadays.
In Singapore specifically, an added dimension of complexity comes into play due to the taxes. This is especially pronounced now that the COE quota i
A video was recorded of a cyclist recklessly endangering his own life by cutting across the lane without checking his blindspot.
It resulted in him splitting lanes and almost colliding with the camcar behind him, endangering both his own life and risking damage to the vehicle.

Oftentimes when we see a supercar such as a Ferrari, Lamborghini or McLaren, we would wish to be in their position and understand how it is like to drive such a flashy and sporty car.
However, I, for one, would not wish to be in the position of this particular Ferrari driver.

Cam car has recorded a taxi speeding up while trying to switch lanes. The taxi also drove along the road shoulder and performed brake checks on the cam car. Are all these really worth the hassle and risking your safety over? It seems more like pettiness and insane behaviour to me.

A netizen made a public claim on Facebook about Changi General Hospital (CGH) making a false statement in his medical report in an accident involving him and a Porsche 911 Carrera.
In the public post, the netizen claims that CGH stated in the medical report that the motorcyclist (the netizen) skidded and collided with a car (The Porsche 911 Carrera).

However, in the dashcam footage provided by the netizen, it showed otherwise.

Time and time again, we hear of the age-old strife and conflict that other road users have with cyclists, who are colloquially referred to as “kings of the road” (sarcasm, by the way!) or acting as if they are riding on their “grandfather’s road” ...
But this video really shows it all--- walao eh! I wasn’t there to see it in person, but had I been, I would have been fuming as well. The whole scene is one of immense inconsideration and recklessness.

TL;DR – A Toyota Voxy with Singaporean plates plays the brake check game and blocks a Malaysian Van at the causeway checkpoint (Malaysian side) and ends up getting intentionally rammed in the rear.
It’s common sense to behave yourself when you’re in someone else’s territory.
But apparently, this Voxy driver did not get the memo.
The Story
According to the caption of the video, The Voxy was playing the braking game and blocking the Malaysian Van.

Yesterday morning on the busy Seletar Expressway, a lone motorcyclist (and those around him) got the biggest shock of his life when he drove over a wooden block on the road.
Due to the impact with the object, he then lost control of his bike, swerving like 'siao' until he was tossed onto the floor, with a hard landing. Ouch!
As shown in the video, readers can see the obstacle was not that visible from far away.

Most people in Singapore purchase an SUV for its spacious body rather than its utility.
And that makes sense as it is almost impossible to put an SUV to the test in a city environment such as Singapore.
However, a particular Volvo driver did just that.
