To add insult to grievious injury: Quote:
Despite the horrific accident that occured on Saturday, a man was spotted stealing money from the Japanese woman trapped in the taxi who was still alive at that point in time.
According to Chinese-language daily Lianhe Wanbao, 57-year-old Mr Lim saw the man, alleged to be in his 30s, pick up notes and coins scattered around the taxi.
There were three to four pieces of notes in denominations of 50 and 100 that amounted to around $300.
Mr Lim who is a cleaner from Malaysia and takes the bus daily from Johor Baru to Singapore was at the Bugis bus interchange when he heard a loud bang and ran to the accident scene. Man steals money from Japanese crash victim in Bugis accident | |

Holy shit, that's a crazy impact.
I agree with looking left, right late at night and I seriously hate driving late night on wide, long stretches of roads like you have in Richmond, Surrey and other parts of the lower Mainland, you always see idiots gun it.

in general, alot of people dont like PRC chinese..
i cant see why that cocky SOB martin guy can say all that crap..
“Why didn’t the taxi driver look at oncoming vehicles before accelerating off? They think green light = no threat? Serve the taxi driver right!”
WTF crap is this... WHO looks for oncoming traffic when you have a solid green for that long...

Why aren't all cars fit with a limiter to 120mph highway and 80mph in city like the GT-R where it would only come off at raceways. There is ways to control these things, why don't we start controlling them?

upon reflection thats exactly what almost happened to me but it wasnt a Ferrari, it was a loaded semi trailer, and i was the taxi with the dash cam.
slow off the light. heard an air horn blare. semi races through a red light smashing a car to my right.
horrible how your life can be taken in an instant due to someone being an idiot.

RIP to the taxi driver + Jap passenger
WTF to the GTO driver....
Not to side track Quote:
For some strange reasons, Ma Chi was found with another young PRC woman in his Ferrari who is not his wife and whose identity nobody knows at 4.50am in the morning.
| WOW... really? -.- you even surprised?
I am kind of indifferent about the mistress, she was innocent of getting into the Ferrari, but knowingly wrecking another's marriage cuz of cash?
