As the camcar so aptly put it, “this one not happy le” What happened? Just yesterday on Ang Mo Kio Ave 9, a poor Kia Seltos got the tongue lashing of their year after turning in just a bit too soon and tight on a Toyota Axio. Looking at the video, you might be thinking “eh he turn right but not in the correct lane, then his fault lah”. WRONG. As we can see from the above photo, the Kia is perfectly within their rights to make a right turn despite not being in the right-most lane. Now, is that an excuse for turning a bit too early and risking an accident? Probably not. But they could be a new and inexperienced driver. Rookie mistake, totally understandable. The Toyota driver DID NOT care. Bro pulled up and blocked the Kia’s path to make sure there could be no escape. As usual, someone please translate whatever the driver said. All I know is that if it was in Cantonese it would be far more severe. After that, he just got back into his car and carried on with their day. Not sure why it was so short, if he was willing to get out of the car to scold them. Online chatter People agreed it was the Kia’s fault, by turning so tightly an accident could have happened. Others also praised the Toyota for the scolding. Which is probably good, the Kia will consider their turning radius a bit more in the future. ========= Be the first to get the latest road/ COE news and get first dibs on exclusive promos and giveaways in our Telegram SGCM Community.

A 23-year-old woman died after the car she was sitting in, where she was the front passenger, rammed into a tree early on Wednesday morning. Paramedics pronounced her dead at the accident scene. The three other people in the car including 24-year-old male driver survived the crash which left the car in a mangled heap. The driver was trapped in his seat and freed by the Singapore Civil Defence Force. He suffered a fractured leg and is suspected to have suffered spinal injuries in the incident at Hillview Avenue at 12.20am. He is believed to have lost control of the car. All three were sent to the National University Hospital. The police said they received a call at 12.18am informing them of the accident.

Saw this accident on Loyang avenue last night. 4 car chain collision, just after the flora drive traffic light. From the looks of it, was a case of 4 cars driving in formation and first one had to e-brake for some reason. See a few such jokers driving in formation almost bumper to bumper at high speeds late at night. Seems to be a new in thing.

The pricing is just too competitive! S$2.80 for a hair cut..... if u use the member card, its only 80cents. for a lao uncle like me... its great value. and the hair cut itself is quite decent. he did use effort to make sure that i'm pleased with the cut. and i gave him tips willingly. both sides win.

furnished or unfurnished also can. need whole unit for 6-12 mths for family stay. pls PM me if u hv a unit available.

Encounted a jam just now on the way to ECP at Bedok exit. Saw an overturned van (landed on its right body) just opposite Casafina nearer to the Bedok Telephone Exchange. Cross divider destroyed! Saw TP car. Wonder what happened. Anyone else saw?

TEN hair salons at a Bedok Reservoir neighbourhood centre had hardly any business yesterday: A new kid on the block was pulling in those who needed a haircut - and those who did not - by offering them for just $2.80. Business was brisk at Snip Avenue, one among the row of shops at the foot of Block 631, Bedok Reservoir Road. Customers came from as far afield as Sengkang and Yishun for the bargain, which does not come with a pre-cut shampoo. Polytechnic student Jeff Lim, 18, who lives in Woodlands and usually pays $10 for his monthly haircut, said he was sceptical about the quality of cut at first. 'But the hairstylists are all very beautiful, so the haircuts here can't be that bad,' he reasoned. He had to wait 40 minutes for his turn, but it was well worth it, he said, emerging from the shop sporting the layered look he asked for, 'like the singers in 5566', the Taiwanese boyband. His uncle William Tan, 43, a project executive who lives in Katong, was another happy customer who now thinks he may stop going to Johor Baru for his monthly haircut. 'At $2.80, it's even cheaper than in Malaysia,' he said. Then there were others in the queue who were at first drawn by the bargain price, but ended up going for more than just a haircut. Customer service officer Eva Md Yussuf, 38, was taking her daughter for a walk when the advertisements outside the salon caught her eye. She got her five-year-old daughter a haircut and also put herself through the works - highlights and a treatment - and ended up spending $90.80, several cuts above $2.80. She said: 'I was attracted by the $2.80 haircut, but I thought I'd try the other services as well since I'm here.' She is exactly the kind of customer that Snip Avenue boss Jimmy Tan wants. 'When a customer is happy with the haircut, sometimes, he would go for other services like perms and highlights too,' said the 50-year-old, whose first outlet in Tampines opened last June with haircuts priced at $6.80. His other outlets in Bedok North, Serangoon Central and Yishun charge either $3.80 or $4.80. When asked how he sustained the business, he said: 'The profit margin is not high now, but the concept is to have many outlets and, hopefully, the mass volume can cover the cost.' His many outlets and the fact that the one in Bedok Reservoir is still in the game after eight months is a possible indication that his business idea is working. The traffic he gets probably more than makes up for his low takings from each head. The Bedok Reservoir outlet tends to about 85 on weekdays and over 100 on weekends. The six hairstylists work 10 hours a day at a steady clip, with few breaks. Asked how her job was, stylist Maggie Chong, 22, had only one word to describe it: 'Tiring.' Theirs is a happy problem which the other salons - charging between $10 and $13 for a haircut - do not share. Mrs J. Lee, 36, who charges $10 for a haircut, reckons her earnings have been crimped by at least half. She spent most of yesterday watching television and chatting with her two stylists. She does not intend to lower her prices though. Said Mrs Lee: 'How am I going to lower my price and fight with them? What if they decide to cut for free one day?'

Second time in about one and a half months, saw a team of people positioned on both sides of the road near the intersection with Bukit Timah Road. They were equipped with manual counters and video cameras, and also bright yellow caps! Too professional and organised for any other purpose. At last, the government going after the elite!

I was in my friend's car when she sped past a red light at the first junction after entering from ECP Exit 2B. I don't think there were any red light cameras there but not sure if there were any ambushes at that moment. Just like what I had experienced some time back, she is very worried now. Based on your driving experiences, any chances that she will be caught?

Anyone been to a shop at Sixth avenue? Duno call what something..accoustics?? How is the shop??? Anyone been there, any comments ? Thought of going there as it is near my house.
