This video is, as the kids say, very 'happening'. 

For those confused with what had just happened in the video, let me unpack it for you. 

We start with the camcar (the Volkswagen Roc driver) driving down Yio Chu Kang road. 

As the black car in front of him starts to speed, the camcar driver revs his engine and chases his 'friend' in a silly speeding game.

As both cars speed down the lane, the drivers try their best to avoid crashing into other vehicles.

However, to the camcar's dismay, he crashes into a grey car after entering a bend. 

Luckily for his 'friend', he manages to squeeze past the car before it changes lanes and avoids a collision.

The video ends with several pictures of the blue Volkswagen Scirocco after the crash.

Who is at fault here?
As evident from the footage of the accident, it is safe to say that the Volkswagen Roc is at fault here.

After all, it is common knowledge that street racing is illegal in Singapore.

According to the Road Traffic Act, individuals found guilty of street racing will face a punishment of a hefty fine, mandatory imprisonment and forfeiture of the vehicle involved. 

Following the Tanjong Pagar incident earlier this year, the authorities have introduced a series of amendments to the Road Traffic Act. This includes higher fines and longer jail times for individuals found guilty of street racing in Singapore.

First-time offenders will face a maximum fine of $5,000 and up to a year in jail. Repeat offenders will be fined up to $10,000 and jailed for up to two years.

While I'm not an expert at car insurance, I highly doubt that the insurance company would be willing to pay the Roc driver after they find out about his little game of cat and mouse with his 'friend'.

Yep, and they look like this:

I thought the video was shot from a third person's perspective as well, it took me a while to realise that it was the Volkswagen driver's POV. 😓

The Audi filtered into main road from a small road and tried to cut 3 lanes at once. How is he not at fault? 

Not saying the Scirocco is innocent, but all 3 of them contributed to the accident. 

If the ROC owner was smart, he should kept the video or burn the SD, and try to push the blame 100% to the Audi since he changed lane without checking or without care. 

Of course, unless other witnesses gave evidence they were racing.

You, Sir, are an Idiot. If you actually ever driving a car in 30mph area you would realise the audi driver wouldn't have a chance as the two cars were not even in junction at the time audi started to move lanes and only due to going what looks like well over 60mph the two idiots connected.

Judging by you quoting MPH, I can assume you're not from Singapore, so I wouldn't blame you for knowing jack-shit about how our traffic laws work. It doesn't matter if you're going at 50kmh or 100kmh, cutting across 3 lanes without checking for approaching vehicles and your blindspot is just waiting for an accident to happen. In our country, we drive on the left side of the road, so he is cutting across to the right-most lane, where faster vehicles drive on. It doesn't matter where you're from, cutting 3 lanes at once into the fastest lane is the stupidest thing you can do while driving. 

Also, in case you are unaware, the video is uploaded by the racing scirocco himself. Which is why i said if there is no video evidence, there will be no proof of them racing. He should have just burned the SD card away. 

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure all these out. Idiot.

  • Is 'tiny living' really irrelevant in Singapore?

    I discussed the possibility of living in tiny houses in Singapore in an earlier blog post. But as we know, it isn't an option to begin with – no thanks, of course, to our lack of land space.  Someone also pointed out that the idea of tiny houses is "romanticised" – which, I don't deny (but hey, that's why it's a dream). While it's clear tiny houses aren't going to work out here, the concept of 'tiny living' is; not just physically but also mentally. Anyone who has lived enough years lo
