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

    Japan is weird. I love it (Part 4)

    I recently finished watching Shōgun (yes, I'm a little bit late to the party). Released earlier this year, Shōgun has become an utter revelation - going on to win 18 Emmys at this year's Primetime and Creative Arts Emmys, making it the most awarded single season of television in history. It's also the first non-English-language series to win Outstanding Drama Series.  And it truly is outstanding, fully deserving of all the awards that it has garnered.  As you would expect, the show rev
