Black CS5 Lancer Smash Up on ECP after Bayshore Exit

What a spectacular crash...

the car obviously lost control at a very high speed... smashed left into the guardrails... and spun a few more times before stopping in the middle of the road on the second/third lane.

Air Bag Deployed...

One front wheel plus shock absorber/spring left on the road shoulder...

this one is a TOTAL LOSS.....

and we were convoying up to Changi Village at 11.30 pm ++... delayed us quite a bit... traffic was doing 2kmh to look at the carnage... and to filter left and right to avoid the main wreckage...

some of us even had to run over the dropped bumper - which by the way already chui chui and flat already la... so no real issue about damaging our rides...

phew... bad luck for driver man... hope he's ok...

the driver was still moving inside... suspect his legs kanna cramped within...

unlucky day for him lah...

yeah man... i was abt to start the topic liao! Hope he is alright!

Can see that he is stuck inside his car... poor thing:shock:

Nan Dao Ni You Qian Li Yan!

wow just before CNY!

just a second of wrong thinking and action amounts to a few years (loan and minor injures) to a lifetime of regrets (deaths!).

Yi nian zi cha!

No need to mod brakes la... the one we saw... stopped lor.. quite well too... permenantly... wun ever go again

:lol: :lol:

it's slowing down and slowing rapidly and being in control during slowdown that is probably the problem.... stopping ? no problem... one way or the other sure stop one...

:twisted:

nvr stinge on ur brakes, be it pads/rotors/bbk upgrades.....i've gotten one too many cynical remarks/sneerings/queries abt y my slow car nids a 4 pot brake upgrade. to me, i say tis again: one may not need to speed...but one DEFINATELY nids to brake in time. believe me, all u nid is tt ONE time when ur brakes saved ur arse, n the brakes wud hv paid for itself liao....case in point? my WW saved my arse 3 farking times. 'nuff said......

as for the cs3 driver, i hope tt he is alrite......CNY is jus round the corner....n to those who r reading, upgrade ur brakes b4 anything else. please. as wat George has aptly mentioned, its chilling to think tt folks of watever make/model out there lup TC n run it w stock brakes.....recipe for disaster man....n front row tickets to meet his/her makers.

I hope that everyone who meets an accident and survives learns a lesson. Many a times, it not about the car. Lousy awareness because bad mood, tiredness, etc can cause a wrong judgement or reaction. We all know our rides limitations in our peak awareness, normal awareness, but tend to not realise them when we're in the wrong frame of thought.

i can only agree up to a point. many younger drivers these days... know very little technical knowledge about their cars...

it's worse when they grew up playing PlayStation or XBox and did not ride bicycles very much...

they have no idea where is the real live limit to mechanical things, and the skill was never honned through the bicycle crashes (they never ride enough so how to really have heart stopping scares and crashes on bicycles?)

they only want to go fast. faster, faster still, until like ps or xbox games... crash, just press reset button.. on they continue...

it's no offence to our younger driver brudders here... not all are so 'blur one' but it's not the blur ones who crash... it's those who got money to mod and blur but dunno they are blur who crash...


Yes , a momentary lapse is 90% of crashes. But this magnitude of a crash means going insanely fast and have a lapse of concentration... hmmm...

in that case, he has 8 pot brakes, front and rear on 360mm brake rotors and slicks (dry condition) oso cannot stop ...

the local authorities shud make it compulsory for people who pass the basic driving test to take ongoing defence driving course, and track driving course...

it's the 'illegal' thing that is so attractive... make them speed until they puke... and learn all the driving skills to handle skids, slides, power drifts, etc ... and crash umpteen times on track and for real... see whether they still wanna do it or not on the road ...

:twisted:

Hehe, then you should teach them more about their cars.

I just hope that it's not another idiot that cause that car to make an evasive reaction and crash. But that my also implies that he is speeding.

the accidents i kena last time, most of them are not due to speeding.....but slow driving....which means, doesn't mean that you drive slow will safe.....doesn't mean that you drives fast is dangerous....

IT MEANS YOU SUAY MEANS SUAY... !!!

Just drive with care and make decisive decisions... If you wanna drive fast its your perogative but know the consiquences...!

All my previous incidents were due to another drivers neglect... go figure.
