TL;DR - Reckless Lancer driver speeds, loses control and crashes into barricades upon skidding along Keppel Viaduct. 

Watch this 51-second video to see the dramatic skid. 

So what happened? 

On a rainy day, this Lancer was caught speeding and overtaking another vehicle along Keppel Viaduct. 

After it overtook the car, the driver somehow lost vehicle traction, which caused the Lancer to crash on the left side’s concrete barrier.

This was not all, the vehicle spun and slammed into the right barricades, crashing both its front and rear ends. 

The video was captured by the cam car and uploaded on SGRV.

Wet roads, bald tires or bad driving skills? This Lancer driver checked all the boxes.

Takeaway 

It’s the monsoon season now and weather reports expect showers to continue into next week. Therefore, it is highly advisable to be extra cautious on the road. Here are some tips to stay safe: 

  • Maintain a safe distance between cars
  • Keep to the middle lane 
  • Avoid e-braking 
  • Don’t speed
  • Ensure tires are treaded 

Alternatively, you can drive like this Lancer and look like you're in a pinball machine

  • 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
