Stupid or ignorant? Mercedes driver films himself speeding and post it online for the world to see

Not gonna lie; Mercedes does have some sick, sporty-looking instrument clusters in their cars.

But don't get me wrong, driving a Mercedes Coupe with a sporty-looking instrument cluster is not equivalent to driving a sports car.

Watch this video to find out what I mean by that: 

What Happened

This 15-second video seemed to be originally posted on the Mercedes driver's Instagram story.

In the video, the driver performs a "launch control" upon the traffic light turning green. 

With all the fancy instrument clusters of his car, you would assume that he is driving a Mercedes sports car.

But here is the anti-climatic part: It took the driver exactly 11 seconds to get from 0-101km/h. (That is equivalent to a Honda Civic's 0-100km/h timing)

I mean, a Honda Vezel Hybrid could probably outrun his Mercedes C180 Coupe in a 0 to 100km/h race EFFORTLESSLY.

But do you see Honda Vezel drivers taking video of themselves "launching" their cars? NOPE. 

Before the video ended, the driver could be seen hitting a speed of 118km/h. 

License Kantong Already

Let's give him the benefit of the doubt and assume the speed limit of that stretch of road is 70km/h; the driver still exceeded the speed limit by 48km/h.

Also, don't forget the driver's usage of his mobile phone to capture this priceless moment. 

According to the Road Traffic Act, exceeding the vehicular speed limit by 41 to 50km/h will result in 12 demerit points and prosecution in court. 

Furthermore, using a mobile device while driving will result in 12 demerit points and a fine not exceeding $1,000 or imprisonment of up to 6 months or both (1st-time offenders). 

Well, that is 24 demerit points and a court date just for that 15-second video.

The driver's stupidity is pretty darn amazing.

0-100Km/h in 11 Secs is a Mercedes Benz Sport Car.???I think just a CLA 180...If AMG-GT,by 11 Secs already can hit over 200Km/h.

My Hybrid Toyota and My Diesel Merc can finish him in a jiffy. Noted that entry-level Merc and BMW owners with cars such as CLAs and X1/2 Tourers are usually the asses on the road in terms of behaviour.

  • Carpark Review: Junction 8

    Built in the 1980s, Bishan (or Bishan New Town) may not be one of the earliest housing estates in Singapore, but it was the first whose HDB architecture saw a departure from the more brutalist designs of the past and featured more variation in height and design.  Residents are primarily served by Junction 8, which opened in 1993. Now more than 30 years old, it remains the sole mall in the Bishan East area. Driving there? Here’s our quick review of the carpark.  Manoeuvrability: T
