Happy Labour Day, Singapore!

Some of us are thinking of how to utilise our pay that just came in.

Then, there are jokers like this Toyota Wish driver who blows it all in an instant (and more).

Speeding on PIE

A dashcam video of the said driver has gone viral and here are some takeaways after watching the video.

  1. No one drives a Wish to speed. It's a family MPV for goodness sake.
  2. Don't do stupid things with other people's car, much less a rental

Here's the 47-second video taken from SG Road Vigilante

 

The Wish loses control at the 0.09 mark of the video.

To the Toyota Wish driver, good luck paying for all the damages for a rental car.

Never doing a prolong hard braking such go during a wet day or on oily road. Driving a rental car must be double careful as the compensation to the rental company is very high. Just asking for trouble. The Wish is definitely not suit for high sped.

Rental car sometimes they use lousy tyres. A very expensive lesson for the driver and lucky he did not harm other road user...

Heavy braking while negotiating a bend causing oversteer on a front heavy FWD MPV. If not enough driving experience, don’t drive so fast.

  • A sole-ful tribute

    Car enthusiasts are an emotional bunch. So, I naturally develop feelings for things on wheels, be it four wheels or two. However, I was surprised to discover that I had become attached to my old pair of sneakers, whose soles are so worn that it hurts to wear them.  That is the unequivocal signal to retire them. But I must say "Thank you" before bidding them goodbye. The laceless design is convenient, saving time when you need to rush off in the morning Through thick and

    ERP 2.0: Possible positions for your processing unit

    Your OBU's processing unit isn't always mounted on the passenger footwell. Depending on the car that you drive, more than one option may be available! Since November 2023, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) has been gradually replacing in-vehicle units (IUs) with the new on-board units (OBU). The OBU will pave the way for smoother traffic as we transition to the new ERP 2.0 system that is based on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) technology.  The OBU comprises three parts: An

    Christmas colours: What do they actually mean?

    The members of the Sgcarmart media team recently put its heads together to prepare something special and festive for our readers and viewers - which you can both read about and watch on Instagram - and as we were sitting down to plan things out, we were faced at one point with a deceptively simple question: What are the different meanings behind the colours we associate with Christmas?  In my very non-expert eyes, three distinct colours stand out: Red, green and white primarily,

    Carpark Review: Downtown East

    It used to be most associated with Wild Wild Wet (or Escape Theme Park if you're of a certain vintage) but now is more typically visited by those looking to shop at the NTUC Fairprice of E!Hub or Don Don Donki. Downtown East spans a total of 147,000sqm and was officially opened on 5 November 2000 (according to Wikipedia). For those residing in the far east of Pasir Ris, this is likely to be their port of call for the grocery run (the other typical location being Loyang East). But just how g
