The whole island was hit with a heavy rainstorm yesterday, with some experiencing more than just a heavy downpour. 

From this minute-long video, it seems that a Ferrari 458 was caught speeding down East Coast Road in 'not-safe-for-speeding' weather.

The driver subsequently loses control of the vehicle as he attempts to accelerate, swerving left and right across three lanes before hitting an SBS bus and losing its rear bumper. Ouch!

Netizens' reactions to the incident:

This video ticked off a lot of netizens as they expressed their contempt for the Ferrari driver's dangerous decision:

Although the Ferrari did not cause any major harm to other drivers on the road, it is crucial for drivers on the road to remember to slow down and be extra cautious as Singapore enters its next monsoon season in June.

Thoughts and comments? Please and thank you!

Looks more like the driver booted the throttle too hard and lighted up his rear wheels when the car in front of him finally moved out of the way. Not so much about aquaplaning.

I was hoping he did a 360 after spinning, like what F1 drivers do after a spin..

There's a reason why everybody else is slower than him :grin:

By the way, why he stick his head out towards end of video? Expecting cam car to do something?

  • Rewilding: A case for small wins

    I've always been drawn to the wilderness. It's perhaps a sense of adventure, but perhaps also an understandable response to growing up in our painstakingly curated and unyieldingly artificed Singapore. The wilderness represents an otherness, a mystery, a case of what-could-be. I've also been fortunate enough to have had opportunities to spend time in various remote landscapes, far away from the vicious machine of modern civilization. It's never truly wild, but it's a stark contrast to the glass-
