In most cases, a loss of traction is likely to occur when a car negotiates a bend at high speed due to the drastic weight shift in the car's weight distribution.

As such, it is never a good idea to negotiate a bend at high speed, let alone overtake at a bend. 

However, some drivers still do it regardless, such as this BMW driver: 

What Happened?

This incident occurred along Lornie Drive.

At a bend towards Lornie highway, a BMW 320i performs an aggressive overtaking manoeuvre.

He switches from lane 2 to lane 1, overtaking the cam car from the left.

After that, he overtakes a lorry from the right on lane 2.

During the multiple lane switches, the BMW went too close for comfort with a motorcyclist in front of it. 

As a result, the motorcyclist lost balance and fell, rolling multiple times on the road. 

May I also bring to your attention how the BMW driver diligently used his signal indicators amid all the overtaking action?!

Unclear of What Happened

Some netizens retorted, voicing out that the BMW sideswiped or bumped the motorcycle's rear tyre, which caused the motorcyclist to lose control.

Well, there is a possibility that the situation above could have happened. 

However, it is impossible to determine from the dashcam video above due to the camera angle. 

Regardless of the incident, what is important is that the motorcyclist emerged from the incident unscathed.

  • Japan: The trend that became a turn-off

    Ahh Japan. The destination that many travellers desire. The perennial trending subject on social media. Japanese cuisine, culture, quirks, technology, and everything kawaii have inspired endless posts, stories, reels, YouTube videos, and TikToks. If one didn't know better, you'd think it was the dream destination on this planet. While I love the food, the service and the shopping, the sheer number of tourists (me included) has become a turn-off. I'm not talking about those who inconven

    Forget resolutions, just focus on starting fresh

    The start of a new year is always a happy time for me. Apart from gatherings and mini reunions, January is when I reflect on everything I've accomplished last year, while mentally noting the things I still need to work on. Resolutions, though, are not for me. While it's not wrong to list some and strive towards them like goals, I think making resolutions is not the optimal way for me to reach new milestones, because more often than not, they're declared 'in the moment'. Or worse, after you'

    We happy few, we Band of Brothers

    It is safe to say that one way or another, the majority of Singaporean men have served their country. Be it sleeping in the jungles of Mandai, walking the beat on the streets of Clarke Quay on New Year’s Eve, or putting out fires (literally) clad in heavy protective gear, most local and naturalised male citizens have given up, as the song goes, “two years of our time”. But many have differing views of National Service. Some see it as a hindrance, a waste of time. Some see it as an opportuni

    Journey to the West: First Steps in Southwestern China, Pt. 1

    It used to be that when a person was visiting China for the first time, the natural choice was Beijing. No better way to learn about a country than a visit to its capital, amirite? Having had their fill of Peking duck and climbed the Great Wall of China, the next places they would likely look at are those on the east coast - Shanghai, Nanjing, perhaps Harbin. In recent times though, the southwestern parts of China have gotten much coverage on social media. Chongqing, the country’s largest c
