A video emerged online showing an accident that happened on an expressway involving a BlueSG car and a lorry.

The accident happened along the CTE on 2 May at about 12pm, and it was captured on the rearcam of another vehicle in front.

The BlueSG car was seen in the video losing control and smashing into the rear of a lorry that was slowing down, completely destroying the front of the car.

The occupants of the lorry in front could be seen being flung forward inside the lorry cabin.

A netizen commented on the video and explained how the engine and gas pedal of the electric BlueSG car works:

BlueSg (EV) car has a highly sensitive gas pedal compared to the normal engine car. The moment you slam the gas pedal, the acceleration is very high due to its high torque.

When you release the gas pedal, the car decelerates very quickly without applying brake pedal compared to the normal engine car. Also, the brake pedal needs to be extremely cautious as this will result in jam brake.

BlueSg car remained stationary without depressing the gas pedal either in drive or reverse gear. Therefore, I urged non-ev drivers need to take extra careful and cautious while driving ev.

The “pretty girl” scammers technique has been used too often by criminals to cheat men who are tempted.

However, a man decided to waste the time of the scammer and troll the scammer.

The scammer use a phone number originating +852 which is a country code used by Hong Kong.

Not long after the conversation start, they will start to ask victims to invest in bitcoins or some other financial instruments.

The man then replies the scammer stating that his a billionaire and he does not need such “investments”

The basic salaries of Singapore Airlines (SIA) pilots will be gradually restored two years after the airline commenced pay cuts for their staff members due to the pandemic.

SIA confirmed with CNA on 4 May that a memorandum of agreement was signed with the Air Line Pilots Association Singapore, the pilot’s union; with effect from 1 April.

The additional pay cuts to the basic salaries of the pilots will be progressively reduced over a period of 9 months, from 1 April to 31 December 2022.

The pay cuts that the SIA pilots previously took in September 2020 were a reduction of between 10 to 60%, which is part of an agreement that was aimed at protecting up to 400 jobs.

The pay cut agreement went into effect in October 2020 and expired in March earlier this year.

A spokesperson for SIA said that SIA is grateful for all of its staff, including its pilots, for their sacrifices over the last two years, allowing the company to navigate the challenges passed by the covid 19 pandemic.

My bf is always on the phone, what can i do? For context, we are together for 2 years from uni to working adults now.

Initially during the 1.5 years of uni life, he will very often take his phone out every 30 min or so and reply his friends for a couple of minutes, laughing at some meme they shared etc while we’re out on dates. Sometimes he receive 1-2 important message and he will stop our conversation to reply that, then proceed to reply his other friends on memes and chitchat. This could go up to 10-15 min of him just fixated on his phone each time he whips it out. I expressed my annoyance previously and he mentioned that if I couldn’t take it, i wont be able to handle it when he starts getting busy with work in the future.

It has been 6 months since both of us started working. His workload has increased and he is managing a small team of analysts handling time-sensitive work. His phone usage naturally increased and he seems to be on the phone 50-80% of the time we are together. Even though we spent the recent long weekend together, he is constantly on his phone. Sometimes attending to urgent messages, sometimes less urgent, and sometimes just chitchats with friends. Even when he is driving, he would start texting once the traffic light turns red.

Occasionally we have our nightly calls with one another and he seems to be on hold for 50% of the time now, replying to his friends or colleague too. Once i actually noticed him dming his colleague and though he claimed its ‘important work stuff’, i saw that they were just chitchatting on what to eat the next day at work and complaining about how the analysts under them are underperforming etc. Doesn’t seem like anything important that warrants an immediate reply.

While im not as busy as him and doesnt manage a team at work, i do understand the need to reply to urgent work messages. But i feel it had somewhat crossed a line now that he is mostly on his phone during our dates.

Recently we celebrated our 2nd anniversary and we spent the dinner mostly in silence as he was busy texting his friends/colleagues before, during and after our meal. I simply can’t understand why he has a need to reply to all his messages immediately.

He always says sorry for using his phone and says that i have to understand his pov. Although i wanted to be that understanding gf, i cant seem o comprehend this.
