This motorcyclist shows us why it’s important to always keep your eyes on the road!

In this video, a seemingly distracted motorcyclist follows closely behind a white Renault Fluence as the pair navigates through roads filled with busy roadworks.

Throughout the entire video, the motorcyclist could be seen tilting his head up and down multiple times.

Upon approaching an underground tunnel entrance, the white PHV slows down to join the long queue of vehicles waiting to enter.

However, the distracted rider fails to anticipate this sudden change and ends up rear-ending the Renault.

The impact force forces the motorcycle to flip forward, throwing the rider down onto the road face-first.

With his feet against the car, the rider manages to lift his motorcycle off of himself.

He walks to the side of the road and removes his helmet, revealing broken pieces inside.

Concerned, the driver of the white Renault and the cam car alight from their cars to check on the rider’s condition.

While we may never know for sure if the rider was looking at his phone, the number of times he kept looking down was suspicious.

Indeed! Kudos to both drivers for immediately checking on the motorcyclist! Hope he is alright!

It is already not easy to look at the screen and drive in a car. How can motorcyclists be able to do it under the sun and ride safely?😬

This exit is a hazard because of the bend. Your line of sight of the traffic is obstructed by the bend. That's why the "SLOW" painted on the road telling road users to slow down. If there are cars stopped after the bend you cannot see it. With road works/tree pruning it is even more precarious.

  • 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).
