Red-light-beating AETOS driver exclaims "Potong Jalan" after getting T-boned by taxi!?

A video of an accident between an AETOS car and a taxi has become viral.

The video was uploaded on Singapore Road Accident's Facebook page less than 13 hours ago and has since garnered 267 shares!

If you haven't seen the video, here you go!

In the video, the AETOS driver makes a right turn when the right-turn arrow is in the red. The oncoming taxi was unable to brake in time and crashed head-on into the side of the AETOS car.

How do we know this? The video is so blurred!

It's a simple skill of deduction, my dear Watson.

Spot it? Just in case, here's how it should look to make a proper right turn. Now compare it with the screenshot above.

Potong Jalan siol

A few second after the crash, the AETOS driver starts shouting (to no one in particular): "Potong Jalan siol."  

I always thought that this phrase meant "steal" or "walked away". Like "I potong jalan-ed his girlfriend."

Ooooh. Thanks, Smart Local!

I digress.

There was no way the taxi “potong-ed” the AETOS driver because the taxi had the right of way.

If you don’t speak Malay, you might have missed this

I went through the video with my Malay-speaking colleagues, and they picked up something interesting.

At 0.33 – 0.35 ish of the video, the driver says "Kau suroh jalan eh?" - "you said move eh?". This was probably directed to the passenger who told him to go ahead and make the turn at the start of the video.

This AETOS driver damn fast to push blame sia.

Another guy caught it too! And, yes, I hope everyone is fine as well. It was quite a hard crash.

Agreed.

There’s always a practical commenter.

To think these ppl are outsourced to direct traffic when the traffic lights are down.

Whoever exclaim "potong jalan", he must have hit his head so hard he dunno what he's saying. Probably a flash back of how his gf got potong jalan by another dude.

Just admit it is mistake of not waiting for the right turn arrow to turn green and make an illegal right turn lah! Anyway the repair cost will be settled by one of the insurance company mah!

The AETOS driver is WRONG but still thinks he is RIGHT and keep thinking he is the victim.

The funny thing is every day on the road

People that are WRONG also keep thinking they were RIGHT.

Fortunately most times it doesn't result in an accident.

How to get these people know they are actually wrong?

:grin:

The problem is not only driving, people that think they are ALWAYS RIGHT and never WRONG suffer more than anyone else in life and are never happy.

How to get them to relax and open their minds and lighten up and remove the ego that stops them being happy?

  • Manchester United's "promising" transfer window should be taken with a pinch of salt

    Having followed this club for more than 20 years, I'm well aware that a promising transfer window does not directly equate to an improved season. Forwards Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, as well as Diego Leon, the young Paraguayan wing-back, have been Manchester United's signings for the 2025 summer transfer window so far. On paper, this team should have no problem challenging for silverware. On the pitch, the current crop of players finished 15th last season. While both Cunha and Mbeumo ha

    23 years on, Infernal Affairs remains the best gangster movie I've watched

    TL;DR It's over two decades old, but Infernal Affairs remains THE gangster trilogy. *SPOILERS AHEAD* *SPOILERS AHEAD* *SPOILERS AHEAD* The Hong Kong Police and a triad have placed moles in each other's ranks. Tony Leung is Chan Wing Yan, an undercover cop desperate to leave his assignment. The antagonist is Senior Inspector Lau Kin Ming (Andy Lau), a decorated policeman who is actually a mole for Hon Sam (Eric Tsang), a triad boss. It's a game of cat-and-mouse, with poli
