You kinda proved my point........ Skill.

Too many people have cars they cannot drive, because of the badge.

There are several ex-circuit racers here like me, many others that drive the autobahn also like me (virtually once or twice a year for 20yrs), and we can testify to the importance of skill and knowing one's limit (whether driving or parking).

How a Singaporean (and others) can just rent a car and rock up to the autobahn scares me. THIS is the point, not pointing to "speed" itself as the cause, that's an easy excuse and way out.

Speed and drive fast as you like. as long as you crash or get into an accident and only kill yourself and don’t drag an innocent along. No one cares. 
same with all the reckless jiuhu motorcyclist. 
public roads are a shared space. Probability of accidents increase with speed. Others cannot judge your intentions when speed increases.

Just, missing the point.

6th Gear

Today, as some of y'all seen on news, Adam Road fire.

Drove down from Lornie and all the cars that came down started braking to see the fire on the opposite direction (Adam Road/Arcadia).

Bunch of idiots.

That stretch from Lornie after PIE exit towards Farrer Flyover is a steep decline and most cars usually reach 90 - all braked to 60, 50 just to kay poh🥵

I also installed all my dash cams and even one reversing cam/display myself. Given a choice I would do the OBU too and connect to ACC rather than leaving it on all the time.

boss, how to know if the connection is to ACC?

Haiz.. that stretch is an accident area. Very notorious for catching people out if they follow too close or when the road is wet.

Need to reach under the hood to unhook the bonnet. His fingers probably have some burns. 

He's very lucky to have gotten help from the bus driver.

I think it applies for all BMW...

I had been filling up my water tank wrongly in the past😅.... 

That's where the signal stalk went for the mechanism 🤣

And told my kids the real use for the grill.
