This motorcyclist shows us why it’s important to always keep your eyes on the road!

In this video, a seemingly distracted motorcyclist follows closely behind a white Renault Fluence as the pair navigates through roads filled with busy roadworks.

Throughout the entire video, the motorcyclist could be seen tilting his head up and down multiple times.

Upon approaching an underground tunnel entrance, the white PHV slows down to join the long queue of vehicles waiting to enter.

However, the distracted rider fails to anticipate this sudden change and ends up rear-ending the Renault.

The impact force forces the motorcycle to flip forward, throwing the rider down onto the road face-first.

With his feet against the car, the rider manages to lift his motorcycle off of himself.

He walks to the side of the road and removes his helmet, revealing broken pieces inside.

Concerned, the driver of the white Renault and the cam car alight from their cars to check on the rider’s condition.

While we may never know for sure if the rider was looking at his phone, the number of times he kept looking down was suspicious.

He can represent SG at the next Olympic games. #motorcyclistforparis2024

Indeed! Kudos to both drivers for immediately checking on the motorcyclist! Hope he is alright!

It is already not easy to look at the screen and drive in a car. How can motorcyclists be able to do it under the sun and ride safely?😬

This exit is a hazard because of the bend. Your line of sight of the traffic is obstructed by the bend. That's why the "SLOW" painted on the road telling road users to slow down. If there are cars stopped after the bend you cannot see it. With road works/tree pruning it is even more precarious.

  • 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

    Curry does not exist?

    Curry. When many of us think of Indian food, we naturally think of curry.  Except, well, 'curry' isn't actually a thing. Not the word, and not even technically the food that we think of.  Many of us probably think of curry as some sort of dish that has a gravy or sauce. But that is in fact a generalisation of a wide variety of Indian dishes, and also a decidedly Western invention intrinsically tied to India's Colonial past. 'Curry' as a word doesn't actually exist in the languages spok

    The Music that Shaped Me, Pt. 2

    Note: If you’ve stumbled onto this post without any context, do read Pt. 1 here first! It is said that the average person’s music taste starts to solidify early on in their adult lives, and by their early 30s they will begin to say things like “Music was better in my day”, “>insert your favourite artist or genre< is not real music”, something to that effect. Of course, I am speaking generally. With four more years to go till I hit 30, I’d like to think I try to expand my tastes o

    Forget the Future - Embrace the Past

    Ah, the future. That shiny, chrome-plated paradise we're all supposed to be chasing. Well, I say bollocks to that. Let's take a cheeky detour down memory lane instead, shall we? Imagine you're lounging in a velvet smoking jacket, sipping brandy from a crystal snifter, surrounded by dusty tomes and antique globes. Sounds rather spiffing, no? That's because old is gold, methinks. While everyone else is frantically scrolling through their social media feeds, we'll be gleefully embracing t
