Netizens’ comments
- such accidents are only to be expected in an increasingly hot-tempered culture.
- A perfect example of egotistical drivers refusing to give way, such drivers very common in SG because wasting $100K on a piece of paper does funny things to people’s character.
- My admiration to these drivers is who willing to lay down their lives (and love ones) for their right of way.
- If seniors accident, people will say ban seniors from driving. So like this how ? Ban everyone ? Asking for my senior dad.
- Every drivers think they are F1 drivers … must also win first?
