Don't say drivers, even pedestrians and cyclists I encountered on CNY too. Many people suddenly turned brainless these 2 days.

No problem at all.
Most BMW coupes can fit 4 passengers becos the back seats are very similar to saloon seats

it isnt quite a true blue 2+2. 

thats why i like BMW coupes, for their spacious  rear

Never have a chance to see BMW coupes, so my impression of such 2 door coupe, the rear seat should be cramped. Maybe only can sit 3 ladies but now they were 3 growing adults of guys who were behind, thought not possible?! 😅

Even 2 series quite OK to accommodate 2 normal guys (170+) at the rear comfortably. 3rd rear passenger probably must lean forward a little.

so now you know
Only the roofline abit low, rear space is quite fine. Of course expect a slight squeeze if bigger than average size, but certainly can fit 3 skinny men

but the center guy has no seatebelt

ALL car insurance companies MUST NOW put a high premium load on ALL insurance agents and financial advisors as they are considered HIGH-RISK group. MAS pls make the necessary action.

Unfortunately this round not handled by law but nature. 

RIP to the young chaps, and hope for the best for the gal, whichever way it goes. 

Condolence to their close families and friends. The pain and loss can only lessen with time, can never be forgotten.

🙏

Yes, we should respect the grieving families, whatever their fault, they have paid the ultimate price (what a horrible way to go).  Some comments in HWZ are really insensitive. 

RIP and condolences to their friends and families.

P.S. I am not related but my mum says never to 说死人的话. Perhaps I am in the minority.

We are not sure if this happened because they were avoiding some pedestrian?

We are also not sure if everyone in the car was equally complicit.

Legally and practically, the consequences far outweigh the deserved punishment.

Why harp on it and make the tragedy worse than it is?

 

What do you think is the deserved punishment? Fine? License suspension? Jail? 

Make no mistake - the car is a weapon. Like the failed businessman who drove the wrong direction along AYE in his Mercedes Benz only to kill a regular guy in his Vios who was minding his own business.

Someone else paid with their life. 

What we are sure is that there is a video showing the car flying down the street at ridiculous speeds - over three times the speed limit there. Punishment is one thing but the consequences to others is another. 

The only good thing in this case is that only the people playing with the weapon had to pay.

Fast cars today are too easy to acquire and too easy to drive fast - just floor the throttle. 

I'm also "not sure" by filming their exploits what they wanted to do with the footage, but they've sure become famous now and have made front page news.

人死，账消恩怨了....

I don't agree with their action,  but they have already paid for it in FULL.  

It's fate and fated.  

They may not even rest in peace,  but let's allow their families some space.  

It's easy to criticize,  condemn and complain,  but do it only when you are 100% sure your children won't do stupid things,  and you yourself have never done anything stupid.

This type of driver will always continue the way they drive. They will always think this will not happened to me, my skill is good.

I don't think anyone is searching out their families and criticizing their upbringing or whatever. 

We all did stupid things in our youth, but we lived to talk about it and grow wise. 

Sometimes you listened to your elders and believed what they said (e.g. don't touch that flame)

Sometimes they had to bribe you (e.g. don't take Class 2 license and I will sponsor your Class 3)

Sometimes you met Death and he decided it wasn't time for you yet 

Sometimes it is your turn.

I disagree about whitewashing matters such as this because if people don't talk about it, others don't even have a chance to learn. Not all will, because such incidents continue to happen, but hopefully some of them will, and don't end up being next week's headline story.

And those, you won't hear about anymore but they get to grow up, get wiser, and hopefully have a long and happy life.
