The vitriol in the comments is palpable. 

What happened?
A motorcyclist hit a Volkswagen Golf while lanesplitting on the Pan-Island expressway (PIE) on 7th August.

The motorcyclist made a sudden swerve and hit the car, causing him to flip forwards and off his bike.

Looks like when an NPC glitches out in a video game.

What has people in the comments riled up is that the motorcyclist was registered under a Malaysian plate, which would (apparently) make it difficult for the Golf driver to get compensation for damages as it is a foreign vehicle.

Online chatter

Some blamed the motorcyclist for the crash, coming up with a multitude of reasons.

Others took pity on the driver’s situation, which was indeed very suay.

  • Christmas colours: What do they actually mean?

    The members of the Sgcarmart media team recently put its heads together to prepare something special and festive for our readers and viewers - which you can both read about and watch on Instagram - and as we were sitting down to plan things out, we were faced at one point with a deceptively simple question: What are the different meanings behind the colours we associate with Christmas?  In my very non-expert eyes, three distinct colours stand out: Red, green and white primarily,

    Japan is weird. I love it (Part 5)

    There are plenty of strange sports in this world. People running from bulls. People running after cheese. Power Slap.  But of course few places do weird quite like Japan. Introducing to you: Bo-taoshi.  The name means 'topple the pole', and that's exactly the name of the game. Except of course its never quite so simple.  You want teams? Oh, you get teams. 150 players, split into 75 offensive and 75 defensive - one holding your pole up, the other attacking another team to topple th
