The following incident took place along the causeway between Singapore and Malaysia.

And needless to say, it was absolutely terrifying.

Watch it here:

What Happened?

The incident reportedly occurred on the JB towards the Singapore side of the causeway.

A Malaysian cargo truck lost control before ramming through an entire causeway worth of vehicles stuck in traffic, almost resembling a Grand Theft Auto gameplay.

As a result, numerous Singapore and Malaysia vehicles were damaged, including a Singapore-registered Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X.

NGL, it breaks my heart to see an iconic JDM sports car get wrecked by the Malaysian truck.

The Big Question

Now, for the big question that has been on my mind since I watched this video.

How on Earth are all those parties involved in the accident going to claim for their damaged vehicles?

And also, I am guessing those Singapore-registered vehicles involved in the accident would have a hard time claiming their insurance, considering that the accident occurred outside of Singapore.

Regardless, this unfortunate incident brought a massive headache and a ton of inconvenience for everyone involved.

And hopefully, everyone involved in this massive accident are doing alright🙏

This kinda big trucks should be on compressed air brake system. The system must have leaks to prevent the truck from stopping.

  • A sole-ful tribute

    Car enthusiasts are an emotional bunch. So, I naturally develop feelings for things on wheels, be it four wheels or two. However, I was surprised to discover that I had become attached to my old pair of sneakers, whose soles are so worn that it hurts to wear them.  That is the unequivocal signal to retire them. But I must say "Thank you" before bidding them goodbye. The laceless design is convenient, saving time when you need to rush off in the morning Through thick and

    Cleaning is relaxing?

    Every once in awhile, I find myself watching 20-minute long videos on Youtube on something that most people will probably find quite bizarre: Carpet cleaning videos.  (This video has 5.4m views!!!!) It's... a particular kind of Youtube rabbit hole. I concede that.  However, I must say that I find such videos strangely relaxing and soothing. Beyond the ASMR component of it, I do find something quite nice about the specificity and particularity of such videos, and in some
