DURING the morning peak hours of April 23, salesman Chan Chi Heng was speeding at 160kmh moments before his car smashed into a truck.

 

He died and yesterday the Coroner's Court ruled it an accident or a misadventure.

 

According to a witness who was driving to the city with her father, two cars raced past her as she was travelling along Changi Coast Road in the direction of Nicoll Drive at about 9.30am on April 24 this year.

 

She told the court that they were racing 'recklessly and carelessly'.

 

She then saw Mr Chan trying to overtake the other car on the left before swerving right to escape hitting a slower-moving vehicle in front.

 

He slammed head on into an oncoming DHL Global Mail truck.

 

The other racer sped off.

 

Civil Defence officers had to cut the wreck to free the truck driver and to get to Mr Chan's body. The other driver has recovered from arm and leg injuries.

As for the driver, driving at 160km/h on Changi coast road is juz pure recklessness. Guess he paid for it with his life. [shakehead]

Well, at least he died a quick death and will not be a menace on the road anymore. Won't feel sorry for him at all.

 

Only feel sorry for his parents and the the truck driver he banged into.

 

As for the other speedster who got away, he will live to die another day.

Can be found in the ST Home page.

 

Btw in such cases what will his insurance company do when the judge announce it's a misadventure?

 

Does the family members have to continue to pay the car installments? And pay for the damages caused?
