It can be pretty tempting to take shortcuts in an empty carpark to get to that available parking lot or to exit the carpark. 

After all, who wants to 'waste' time and petrol by making one big round around the carpark to exit the carpark, right?

Unfortunately, this motorcyclist took a shortcut down the carpark and learned his lesson the unpleasant way:

What Happened?

A motorcyclist decided to take a shortcut down the multi-storey carpark (MSCP) by going against the traffic flow and driving down the MSCP slope. 

Just then, a Honda Civic drove up the slope, and both vehicles almost got involved in a head-on collision with each other. 

Both vehicles came to an immediate halt on the slope.

And needless to say, the Honda Civic did not budge one bit.

As a result, the motorcyclist was forced to 'reverse' from the slope.

He and his pillion rider subsequently dismounted to manually 'reverse' the motorcycle.

What was going through his head?

The shortcut performed was a mindless, convenient solution for the motorcyclist to save time and petrol.

Little did he know, by doing so jeopardises his life as well as his pillion rider's life.

Imagine if both vehicles were unable to brake in time; the outcome for the motorcyclist would be exceptionally undesirable for him.

He would undoubtedly regret performing such an act to save that mere few seconds of his time. 

Hopefully, the motorcyclist learns his lesson from this near miss incident.

Only those who are guilty of performing such shortcuts will post this type of comment🤡

  • Sgcarmart Explores: Japan Edition (ft. the Nissan Ariya)!

    The approach of the year-end holidays often also means the annual pilgrimage Singaporeans take to Japan to soothe their souls after a long year will soon kick into high season. (Just open any of your social media applications - Instagram, Facebook or TikTok - and you'll see.) For the many amongst us who can spare neither the financial expense nor the time, however, there's no reason to fret. Allow the mind some space to wander, and one will find there are many places on our sunny island tha

    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

    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

    Still learning to let go

    I believe that you need to let go of things in life to make room for new experiences. It sounds hypocritical coming from a former hoarder like me, but it is quite possibly the most important lesson I've learnt these past two years. Decluttering or tidying up is cathartic. That's why I feel clearing out your house can improve your life. Like many, I discovered this before moving into my BTO, as my better half and I attempted to clear out our guest room. Horrifyingly, it had become 'The
