Here I am writing two back-to-back articles on accidents involving reckless Singapore-registered vehicles in Johor Bahru, Malaysia. 

This time, it involves a hotter hatch than the Volkswagen Golf GTI (Read it here) - the Mercedes A45 AMG.

Watch the video of the accident here:

What Happened?

The following accident occurred in Johor Bahru, Malaysia, in the early hours of 8th May, Sunday.

A Mercedes A45 was gunning down the road of Jalan Johor Bahru - Kota Tinggi (Jalan Serampang Intersection) at high speed.

Somehow or rather, the Mercedes driver lost control of his hot hatch and skidded.

As a result, it slams into a total of five vehicles (including the cam car) before coming to a stop in the middle of the road. 

Among the five vehicles, four were waiting at a red-light in the opposite direction where the Mercedes driver came from. 

According to Johor Bahru Selatan District Police Headquarters, the Mercedes driver was tested negative for driving under the influence of alcohol and substance. 

Also, Johor Bahru Selatan District Police Headquarters have since launched an official investigation into this accident under section 43 (1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.

Thank goodness those involved managed to escape with only minor injuries. 

Here's wishing all those involved in the accident a speedy recovery!

P.S. I am guessing the Mercedes driver's insurance company ain't gonna be happy about this!

The involvement of numerous parties and foreign-registered vehicle(s) seems like this will make this accident claim a troublesome one.

Aftermath of the Accident

Below are some snippets of the accident scene.

The Mercedes A45 seems like it was damaged the most during the accident compared to the other vehicles - the hot hatch looks like a complete wreck! 

Do you think the A45 is salvageable? Or would it be heading for the scrapyard back in Singapore?

It seems that the Mercedes A45 driver was hell-bent on speeding through the junction and trying to beat the red traffic light. 😕

it is unfortunate. The Merc driver should get seriously injured, so he won't endanger others life again in the future.

As for the watermark, maybe can ask the graphic designer/ webmaster to reduce the opacity :grin:

  • 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

    The art of doing nothing?

    Here’s a quick fun fact for those who’ve sworn themselves entirely off TikTok, out of the fear of having to run yet another social media account: You don’t actually need to log in to the app to scroll it. Quite incredibly (but also quite scarily), the platform’s algorithm is still able to curate an incredible array of videos that it thinks will make you want to keep scrolling. And for this existential-crisis-ridden 28-year old, it’s decided to feed videos more along the 'self-help’ route re

    When suppressed feelings arise

    "Don't keep it bottled up inside" is a saying many of us are familiar with. By now, most of us are aware that ignoring your emotions is an unhealthy practice. Yet many of us do it anyway. I don't think I'm particularly stoic, but as I get older, I've realised that I do tend to not express how I'm feeling, and that this practice has led to anxiety. One example of this happened just a few weeks ago. Prior to this year's Motor Show, I had trouble sleeping. I would keep waking up with my m

    Fascinated by honey

    If there's one natural food (aka can be eaten raw) that I absolutely love, it's honey. Yes, there are countless varieties from around the world, but for this story, we'll talk about the kind that comes straight out of a hive, complete with honeycomb. I'm not an expert on this topic, but every time I consume raw, unprocessed honey, it tastes a lot better compared to honey that comes in a jar. No squeeze-bottle honey for me, please. Perhaps it's just my imagination, but raw honey doesn't
