  1. enjoyyyyyyyyyyyyyy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEH_iO4_XPM
  2. Since today's a Friday, just wanted to share a light hearted yet ugly incident which happened yesterday... Adapted and tweaked the title of my thread from bro Roverboy - since its rather catchy and befitting a fri...ha! Unfortunately, it is the works of the infamous Kia Koup again.... (or Koups, this round) Yesterday, I had sent my car for regular oil change. As I had a busy working schedule, I don't have the luxury of waiting till the servicing is done. My mech kindly lent me his Avante so that I can meet my business associates and have lunch before bropping back to collect my ride. (So nice of him.... ). I must say honestly, Avante is a great car in its class. Very responsive... I had a quick meeting with my business associates and decided to head to Potong Pasir to pack lunck before heading back to office at Media Centre. The route was CTE (from town) -> upper serangoon then Potong Pasir. Along CTE ( before the moulmein road exit), the M&Ms appeared... (it was 3 Kia Koups, red, blue and green - thus the namesake, M&Ms). They were in a convoy I presume, cutting in and out of lanes... and tailgatting some poor souls who eventually had to give way to them.... At one juncture, the Blue one tried to cut out but was blocked by an equally rude taxi who cut into his lane and jam brake... So blue was left behind and red and green sped ahead..I overtook the blue... It was business as usual, I went ahead to PP to pack my lunch (the area opposite the Hindi Temple). When I reached there, I was pretty surprised that Red and Green was there... Parked one ahead of the other, opposite the temple with their hazard lights on. (I presume they were heading to Mac Donalds). the space behind them was unoccupied so I slotted in , put on my hazard light and went to the food stall to pack lunch (about 5m away). Suddenly, blue came.... and started blasting his horn... Its the extremely irritating kind whereby the driver pressed and held on to his horn... My mind was occupied with work, so I just stood there in a daze wondering what blue wanted... he wound down his window (rather i would say it wound down its window... because the driver was an extremely ugly looking, four eyed monkey with a super corky look) What he said was even more appalling.... "Eh... move your car leh... can't you see my 2 friends ahead of you... can park elsewhere or not??" I responded " sorry, why must I shift my car... I was here first" Blue monkey " Wa leow eh... please la, your one not sports car, dun park here and spoil the completeness of our convoy can?? Move away your lau pok car... please....." With a highly irritated monkeyed look, specs glimmering in the sun" OK Kia Koup is a sports car !!!! in his monkey brain.... and Avante is a lau pok car compared to his?? I thought specs are pretty similar... and I thought both MIK? shouldn't he show some mercy to his fellow MIK Hyundai?? Anyway, my food was ready, so I just took my food and drove off...
  3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgLrAdjvUVg before anyone start shooting/commenting..the driver/person who records the video is not me..
  4. Wonder what the driver did to piss the cabbie off. No one would react this way unless severely provoked. But doesn't make the cabbie right either.
  5. Today went to lunch with colleagues in white sand meet a reckless toyota wish driver, driving recklessly, cutting lane here and there without signals. Ok nevermind let him cut. dun let him spoit my day. unforunately he went to the same eating place with me. proceed down to the carpark at whitesand, with him in front. he stop to let a car infront of him reverse into a lot. then suddenly he see a couple getting into a car beside his passager side and preparing to go off. He suddenly reverse gear and reverse in a very fast speed toward my car KNN. I was only half a car body length away from this A****** I was unable to reverse as there are car behind me honk and high beam at him but he continue, after he park his car and alight with 3 , went confront him ask him how he drive, but he reply make me even more , he reply i see your car, not happy complain to LTA. Mr, you want to show off your FARKING driving skill to your female colleagues dun do it in other driver expense.

  6. i was travelling on TPE towards Sengkang at about 80-90kph along a slight bend. an SBS bus was travelling on my left at the same speed, about 2m in front. there were only two lanes (merging lane). a taxi, those MPV type sped towards the rear of the bus at at least 120kph. without braking, the taxi swerved in front of me, through the 2m gap. for a split second i thought the taxi was doing a kamikaze into the bus, for the next split second i though it was doing a kamikaze into my car. crazy idiot
  7. Hi guys, this is my second contribution. I dont know who is more reckless in this video , the guy parking the beautiful black porsche to be destroyed (look where it was parked!!!) , or the bus who at the end caused the accident. http://www.megavideo.com/?v=TPBTRFMR I think that even if the porsche wouldnt have been parked there , the accident would have ocurred , what do you think? Regards,
  8. >> ASIAONE / MOTORING / DRIVERS / STORY Thu, Jul 30, 2009 my paper Why I have never learnt to drive By Victoria Barker I HAVE recently developed a fear of crossing the road. Yes, you heard me right. And, no, it's not because I've had a close call with a speeding taxi over the past couple of weeks. The reason for this sudden, if irrational, fear is the findings of a survey conducted by insurance company AXA last month. According to the survey of 521 Singaporean car owners here - of which 415 were private- car owners and the rest, cabbies - "our motorists are a truly reckless bunch. Firstly, 75 per cent of those surveyed did not know the normal speed limit on most Singapore roads. You would think that was a basic enough question, right? The answer is 60kmh, by the way. Unsurprisingly, more than half also admitted to engaging in at least one dangerous driving practice. These practices included using a mobile phone or text messaging while on the road, tailgating and drink-driving. But what left me dumbstruck was this: When asked what would deter them from doing so,"the safety of others - personal safety aside - ranked very, very low. In fact, not harming others came in a measly fifth, after the possibility of getting demerit points, being caught by a speed camera, stricter law enforcement and personal safety, in descending order of importance. Cue raised eyebrow and a step or two backwards onto the kerb. These findings lead me to wonder if Singaporean drivers have their priorities on the road completely mixed up. I think they just might. I do not drive and I've often been asked by colleagues, friends and family members alike why I've never learnt to do so. I always answer with a question: What if I hurt someone? Sure, I may come across as a little paranoid and it's not a good enough reason to be destined to our highly-efficient public-transport system (we can't all be scaredy-cats like me) for the rest of my life. But, to me, the fear of hurting someone unintentionally far outweighs the thought of getting demerit points, or, worse, a (gasp!) fine. It is not the fear of the law, or of getting caught that should be deemed most important. To me, that is a selfish, "me-first" mentality Think about it. Could that call on your mobile phone be more important than the life of an innocent pedestrian on his way to school or work? That's not to say that us non-drivers are completely free from blame. I'm sure you've seen your share of jaywalkers, aunties with a death wish and people who refuse to make use of the many overhead bridges. Keeping our roads safe is a two-way street. For now, though, thanks to the survey findings, I think I'll stick to good ol' public transport. [email protected]
  9. Beware of this comfort sonata taxi SHC 8**9E I have seen this taxi travelling at high speed on PIE towards changi airport a few times. He always put his headlights on high beam while tailgating cars on lane 1. And changing lanes abruptly without signalling Feeling like making a police report against him for endangering other motorists' lives
  10. A 30-hectare car "showroom" By Samuel Ee AUTO distributors are "looking east" these days in a bid to ramp up flagging car sales - east, as in the Changi Exhibition Centre. The CEC's sprawling 30-hectare grounds at Changi Coast Road are better known as the site of the Singapore Air Show. But between aviation events, the CEC also attracts car companies, which use the site for everything from launching a new model to conducting driver training. For them, the CEC's huge 100,000 square metre outdoor display area is the biggest draw. The space is equivalent to 33 soccer fields and can house 10 Boeing 747 jumbo jets at any one time. "This space allows me to do everything in the safety exercise programme," said Gilbert Kwek, GM for sales and marketing at Mercedes-Benz Singapore. "It's the only car park of its scale in Singapore." An 11-day Mercedes-Benz Driving Experience was held at CEC last month, the second such annual event held there. Previously, Mercedes had used venues such as the old Police Academy at Thomson Road and an unopened stretch of road in Tuas. "But the size was not ideal," said Mr Kwek. "The Tuas road was a very straight road but not wide enough for certain exercises which require a run-off area." He added that overseas venues like Malaysia's Sepang race track have also been used, but the cost of transporting people and cars was much higher. So does having a driver training event with overseas instructors at CEC help to sell cars? "Definitely," said Mr Kwek. "We get to showcase our technology and demonstrate how far the car can go in terms of braking, stability and dynamics. Yet from the customer's point of view, this is not a sales pitch because he gets to appreciate what he paid for." But he could not give exact sales figures, saying: "It is hard to quantify because the purchases are not made immediately." Mr Kwek added that Mercedes is planning to go back to CEC next year, subject to instructor availability. Audi Singapore is another fan of the CEC venue. The German premium carmaker was one of the first car companies to use the facility when it launched its A4 sedan there last May. The month-long event - the biggest at CEC to date - cost Audi $2 million and it even used CEC's air-conditioned exhibition hall for a driving display. "We certainly had more converts from an event like that versus a normal showroom test-drive," said Audi Singapore managing director Reinhold Carl. He explained that the CEC was a unique event venue and ideal for demonstrating the "dynamism and performance of the new A4" with the customer behind the wheel. "Space is at a premium in Singapore," said Mr Carl. "The fact that the roads are well-paved and the accessibility to the venue sealed our decision to hold our launch at CEC." In addition to the proximity to both the city and the airport, CEC also offers car event organisers the advantage of minimising the impact of noise disturbance to others, said Jimmy Lau, managing director of Singapore Airshow & Events Pte Ltd, which owns and manages CEC. "It is also one of the very few venues in the world which offers a breathtaking panoramic seafront view," he said. "The amount car event organisers pay for rental is also definitely less than a city venue." http://www.asiaone.com/Motoring/News/Story...519-142328.html RELATED LINKS - Porsche spends $500,000 on Changi roadshow - New Audi A4 makes a splash with $2m launch Mr Lau added that currently, car-related events account for "more than 80 per cent of event days at CEC". Rental of the CEC, which opened in February 2008, can cost anything from $8,000 to $40,000 a day, depending on the area required, and whether the open space and indoor options are chosen. For example, it was $8,000 a day for the Lexus Driving Experience event, while Porsche paid $120,000 to hold its six-day Porsche World Roadshow in February. For Porsche, the area it took up included the 2.6km Aviation Park Road straight. Together with additional logistics like marquees, catering and the importation of the cars from Germany, Porsche spent $500,000 on the whole event. Authorised distributor Stuttgart Auto said the amount is worth it even though there is "no immediate link" between its driving event and purchases of Porsche cars. "It raises awareness of the brand and it begins the process of convincing the potential customer about the car's capabilities," said Porsche distributor Karsono Kwee. "It does not lead to a direct sale on the spot, but it helps. From there, we need to follow up," he added.
  11. You were weaving in and out of traffic along SLE - CTE at speed of more than 100km/h. Squeezing into tight spots, which was supposed to be the safety distance between vehicles. And mind you, you did not do a slow squeeze in, in fact, you cut abruptly into their lanes! From behind, i can see many drivers frantically activating their brakes to avoid hitting you. And most importantly, YOU DID NOT EVEN SIGNAL ONCE. NO ONE CAN READ YOUR MIND. All it takes is someone who is not alert and you'll get a new bumper. Please drive carefully and signal before you change lane! I know you are driving a company car, but that doesn't mean you can anyhow drive! To all, just be alert when you see this car. You'll never know when he will cut in front of you. PS. No, this driver did not cut into my lane. I saw the whole episode from 1 or 2 cars behind.
  12. Hello Everyone! Apa khabar? Pandu Kereta must jaga jaga lah! With the increase number of irresponsible & reckless speedsters cum racers who drive their super-cannot-make-it cars with some cheapo modifications from Johor Malu to malu themselves by crashing and dying on the spot, I am indeed a Happy Man. Mana Boleh? You may ask. I am often on the road, Singapore or JB roads clocking no less than 200km a day and 5000km a month on average. These kuku speed and cut into every conceivable ends, causing white drivers from PAP branch like me to jam so so so hard on my brake that my brake got this curry smell coming out so many times. I am so pleased to announce that many more drivers of these calibres are doing down the path of this joker who speed at 160km/hour on a 70km/hour while racing with another Proton wira! A Cork driving a Colt thinking he is a F1 Singapore Rep doing a 3 times over the speed limit! What is this? Asking for trouble? Nonono.. he is asking to DIE. Asking for trouble is different from asking to die. Death to reckless racers. If they breed, you will BLEED. Happy CNY and hope those racers die before CNY if not they will cause a few of u here to die for them. I am asking for trouble here by posting this because many losers will come here to shoot me, thinking I am easily intimidated. But i am a brave man you know! As a self-declared loyalist cum supporter to PAP, even if u were to punch me or even burn my body, I will still post my very learned arguments here to HELP my fellow innocent motorists who have their families waiting for them to go home. Those who speed recklessly and irresponsibly must die. No two ways about it. If they dont die, what will happen? YOU DIE! No joke. That evo joker who CRASHED and killed/murdered the innocent taxi driver out to make some extra cash for his family is still very yaya papaya cos he has his own life but another innocent chap lost his life due to this yaya papaya young idiot.
  13. Has anyone tried sending videos of reckless drives to the TP? I just did and waiting for a response. I Was driving on PIE second lane at 90kmph. Came up to a slower car and I overtook via lane 1 about 95kmph after signalling.. whilst on lane 1 ..a very fast old Honda Civic with black bonnet came really close behind me and tailgated while flashing ... i signalled left and he kept tailgating and honking.. I admit i was pissed and slowed down to 90kmph.. he kept tailgating really close... for about 3 mins and decided to overtake from lane 2 and cut abruptly into my path jam braked really fast ..pointed middle finger and drove off.. All these was taken by my DIY video camera stick mounted on my dashbord.
  14. One of those mornings... Reckless driving and after kana horned, hogged the road.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPgMAeb9LsM
  15. Hi guys, I guess we always tends to stereotype.. but... let see the results. I am steering towards.. Civics.. hehe
  16. Time: 8.15pm Location: Road along Fullerton toward Suntec Was travelling on the road along fullerton towards suntec (4-5 lanes). As i was approaching the traffic light about 150 meters away, there came this black civic(the new gen one) cutting from lane 4 to lane 2. I was travelling along at lane 2. If i never remember wrongly there isn't any signal. i was quite sure about it. He didn't even see my car approaching beside him. (didn't check blind spot) i sounded my horn and hold on to it until he swerve back to his lane. When he was coming to a stop at the traffic junction, as he drive pass my car, he turned his face and give me one kind of look with his beside him. ( At the point of time i was thinking.....SURE ANOT? you know what the heck are you doing? you are at fault and still dare to give that kind of look ) As the traffic light turn green , i overtook a van infront of me and manage to get to the front of the traffic, then i saw his car was coming from behind chasing after me....... Racing time. As he came closer, i waited for him to be close enough, then i tap my brakes hard. managed to force him to do a e-brake. after that he was still not happy trying to catch up with me , but after that i ZOOM off. What kind of Attitude is this? With this kind of driving sure will get into accident someday. This was my first time tapping brakes on others, all along i feel that is dangerous to do it but was really pissed me off this time round.
  17. Cabbies who cause accidents up 30% April 06, 2008 YOU'VE probably seen them speeding down the highway, suddenly cutting into your lane on the road, and abruptly stopping in front of you, forcing you to stomp hard on your brake. Cabbies have also been making headlines, knocking down pedestrians, slamming into road dividers, and creating road hazards. Yes, on top of having to deal with the recent fare hikes and rules on picking up passengers in the CBD, taxi drivers are now increasingly being accused of being reckless drivers. The New Paper polled 100Singaporeans over 18 years of age, and found that an overwhelming eight out of 10 perceived taxi drivers as being more reckless than the average motorist. OFFICIAL FIGURES And official figures seem to back this up. Statistics from the Land Transport Authority show that from 2005 to 2007, the overall number of accidents where taxis were deemed at fault rose from 749 to 972 - a jump of almost 30per cent. However, the number of taxis grew just 9 per cent - from 22,383 to 24,446 - during that period. Of these accidents, the number that involved fatalities rose by more than half, from 13 in 2005 and 2006 to21 in 2007. Some Singaporeans, like motorist Andrew Goh, 58, lamented that they see so many reckless acts by cabbies that they accept it as the norm. Mr Goh said motor workshop workers he has spoken to often nod understandingly upon finding out that the wreck they are working on was in an accident involving a taxi. 'It is as though they expect it. Taxis speeding, cutting into lanes and jamming their brakes suddenly to pick up passengers. These are all so common,' said the businessman. In the past month, eight in 10 of those polled had seen taxis both suddenly switching lanes and stopping for passengers without warning. And 65per cent had also witnessed speeding. Ms Valerie Tan Si Jie recounted one incident. The 20-year-old student's pleas for her taxi driver to slow down fell on deaf ears. He was barrelling down the road at 130kmh, she said. Reckless cabbies have also been making the news recently. Yesterday, The New Paper reported how taxis were creating a road hazard while queuing for passengers outside Orchard Cineleisure. Last month, a speeding taxi driver reportedly crashed into a divider on the ECP, then left his four passengers stranded on the highway while he drove off. Mr Abdul Mateen, 34, said one of the reasons for the increasingly reckless behaviour could be that taxi drivers may have become overconfident in their driving skills after years of experience on the road. 'They are generally impatient and like to tailgate. Even if you are driving at 100kmh on an expressway's right lane, they expect you to get out of their way,' he lamented. Arrogance on the road was also noted by 23-year-old student Tsai Jia Jia. She could only sit tight in her passenger seat when her taxi driver and another cabby refused to give way to each other on the road, resulting in a collision. However, the 10 taxi drivers The New Paper spoke to said it is unfair to say that all taxi drivers are reckless. PENALISED Like many of his fellow cabbies, MrJasni Ismail, 48, said taxi drivers have no reason to be reckless because they are heavily penalised if they get into accidents. 'One accident is enough to wipe out half our month's income,' he said, 'That itself is a reason for a more cautious attitude.' Some taxi drivers said that rising fuel and rental costs have increased pressure on them to make ends meet. Cabby Jeffery Lim, 55, said: 'The prices are killing now, we need to drive more to meet minimum requirements.' He lamented that the recent fare hikes have reduced passenger demand, especially during peak hours, making it even harder to offset costs. Regardless of the possible causes of recklessness, some argued that taxi drivers were no more inconsiderate than the 'typical ungracious Singaporean' driving a private car. Furthermore, customers are sometimes as much to blame for accidents as the taxi drivers. Some, like 19-year-old salesman Hazmi Gasli, ask drivers to go faster. He said he sometimes prefers the taxi driver to speed so that he isn't late for urgent appointments. Madam Yen Wong, 42, a technology service manager, added that it is sometimes the passenger's fault for flagging down taxis at the wrong place. Ms Wong said: 'The taxis will be tempted to stop. They are just trying to make a living, it is their bread and butter.' Still, Mr Ismail stressed: 'Being deliberately reckless is inexcusable even if it makes your rice bowl, because you are not only endangering yourself, but others.' - By Swan Tan, newsroom intern.

  18. Apparently Sonata cab drivers these days are becoming hell divers in my opinion. Encountered at least 5 Sonata drivers this weeks who drive like there is no tomorrow. The worse part is they are actually carrying passengers. Kao!!! Dont they care for passengers' safety? My goodness..... Sigh.....if only i have a speed detector and a camera, then i sure see their faces to STOMP for review.
  19. To the driver of " GX 15 *" who drive recklessly alone ang mo kio ave 3 toward ubi at around 8.30pm on 13 March. I curse you and your lorry wrap around a tree and all the gas tanks on the lorry explose into frame. On such a wet and slippery road condition , most of the drivers are driving careful on the road but here we have this lorry driver who think that he some kind of F1 racing driver who change lane abruptly here and there for many times till i lost count. Are you rushing to delivery gas tank or what? You nearly cause 2 near miss accidents with me on two difference location. On both cases you actually horn at me and overtake me and immediate cut back to the lane abruptly and nearly cost cause me to skip when i jam my brake. What the hell do he wants from me when i was already on the left lane? I was fortunate that i wasn't travelling fast during the time. The way you cut the lane , i know you did it on purpose. This driver really spoilt my day. Thank for reading .

    Reckless

    traveling at bedok reservoir rd this evening, at quite high speed for that small road.. around 60-70km/h.. right after a bend, noticed this taxi very near me, stopping at those carpark entrance but part of the car was on the main road.. thinking that i cant stop in time, i swere abit into the right lane and managed to squeeze through but the side mirros of this 3 cars, including mine, was so close to each other.. now i'm here to confess my big mistake for driving so recklessly for the first time.. apologies to the black car at my right..
  21. Hi, I was involved in a accident in a car park while I was reversing. I admited my mistake and the other party claimed my insurance. The damage was quite minor. What I did not know was that a few days later the other party saw a doctor and claimed doctor fees. It become a police case, and I just found out that I got charge with reckless driving and to be fined $500 with 6 demerits points. I was shocked. I was only driving 10 km/h, reversing, and the damage was so minor. How can I be reckless driving ??!! Anyone of you encountered this before ? Can I appeal ??
  22. to the driver of SDM 91XX X black merc S300 around 1.15pm today 26/1/08 thank you for showing me what is means of being a "safe driver" yes. i was that sliver toyota wish on lane 2 along ecp towards jln bukit merah. i guess you where too used to driving a jap car that u forgot that ur signal control was on your left and not your right. or maybe your signal light fused. being just on my right. you showed me that even a merc can change lane from 1st lane to 2nd lane with less then half a car length. it really makes me realise that you are paying so much for a merc as it can change lane with such a small gap. although there was no car in front of me nor on lane 3. thank you for letting me test my E BRAKE and ABS on my stock wish by swerving to the left. wow! i suppose that you were in a rush as u dint bother to apologise by waving ur hand at me. to everyone else. i just learned a lesson from this elite today. and yes i know that you were definately going more den 110 kmh as i was going at 100. nice car!
  23. Reckless black evo driver SBX plate spotted inside CTE tunnel today at about 7pm. The driver was driving at very high speed cutting in and out on the left side trying to show off his loud exhaust. I am the one who horned at you. Most reckless driver i have ever seen so far. If you are in this forum good luck to you, if u wanna show off show it on track not on singapore roads.
  24. This morning around 7.15 am, I was driving in lane 2 along CTE towards town. At the entrance of Braddell Road, this bleach lancer comes in from the slip road of Braddell Road into CTE. Immediately it signalled and entered into lane 3 and was in front of me..... Then with his right signal lights still on, he cut into my lane when my car body is more than half of his rear car body. Immediately I jammed my brakes to avoid colliding with his car and blasted my horn to warn him.. ..He then jammed brakes and filtered furiously back into lane 3. I slowed down my ride and keep a good distance away from him. Then he increased his speed in lane 3 to the front and cut in front into lane 2. Then he repeated this stunt to the vehicles in lane 1. I am writing this to warn all road users and drivers of this errant driver who thinks that when he signals, he has the right of way and no matter how near your car is to his, he just dun bother to check blind spots and other cars around him and cut into your lane..... Drive safely.....
  25. As in any other weekday, I was travelling along the AYE towards the Buona Vista Exit on the 3rd lane of a 4 lane Road keeping a distance of about 1 car length from the vehicle in front moving at about 70km/h-80km/h. Out of the blue, a 20 year old SBN ****Y COE junk blue Merc cut into my lane forcing me to jam brake but realising that it was not enough to stop, (remember, it was only 1 car length away from the vehicle in front and he could pull such a stunt! the big lorry behind me also about 1 car length away) I swerved to the right, missing another car who drove defensively and braked a little sensing that I might swerve to the right. All this while my hand was on my twin magnum horn for a good 2 seconds but the blue merc driver calmly and confidently just took my lane. The result? 3 CARS sharing 2 LANES side by side! Blue merc, me in the centre on the dotted lines and a black sedan on my right! Next, I heard a barrage of horns behind at least 7-8 different long and loud horns. I hope it was not an accident as after we spaced ourselves out, I saw a big empty space in my rear view mirror. Quite a few vehicles had stopped! I horned after that bugger for about 5 seconds on his tail and he refused to stop. I drove along side him about 1km later on for about 3 seconds horning and signalling him to stop intending to tell him off about his horrid driving and the possible accident that he had caused but he refused to even look at me choosing to continue driving. For such an irresponsible and dangerous driver, I trailed him all the way right behind him into the cte and he drove his pathetic car to the Hong Lim police post. He stopped and called the police on the phone and i parked behind him. All this while we were both in our vehicles. When 4 policemen came out the door, i exit my vehicle to tell the police what happened but the police told me to stay near my vehicle and then that chao ah kwa finally came out and approached the police. some 40 something old guy. I explained the situation and had my particulars recorded before i was told that i can go. The purpose of this post is that if anyone was injured in any accident along the AYE at about 7.15-7.25 a.m. due to the inconsiderate driving of that joker please feel free to approach me to be a witness. I hope that there were no accidents caused by all the confusion and sudden lane changes. And that chao ah kwa, dare to do this kinda stunt dun dare to take responsibilities for his actions. c'mon. did he think that just because he was protected by a car's metal body he can pull that kinda stunt? When asked by the police why he did not stop after he knew he caused considerable confusion on the road by his reckless driving, he claimed that he was afraid that me or others will hammer him. hahaha and i replied the police that this is singapore and that road rage is a very serious offence. Both the policeman and me smiled to each other. So that ass of a driver dared to pull stunts which could have or maybe even caused an accident (i'm not sure but guessing so because lots of vehicles stopped behind me after the incident)just because he was protected in his car but dare not apologise or check if his actions had caused an accident. Initially, intended to trail him to see which office building he was going to so I could lodge an appropriate report to the traffic police but that chao ah kwa drove right to the poloice station. best now. If there was an accident, he cannot distance himself from it now as he had just positioned himself at the scene of the crime. ok thats all folks. p/s never let horrid drivers get away with such horrid acts.
