This is at Beach Road turning left to Raffles Blvd towards Suntec. Taxi did not follow lane, nevermind. Stop liao, honk liao, let him go. NVM. Case closed. Best part... lao hero in Vios honked from behind, cut in front of me, then stop on the right started staring and gesturing at me. What is your view?

Of late, I noticed many drivers tend to encroach into another lane especially when they drive at a bend. If you happen to drive along Lornie Road towards Adam Road, ECP along Benjamin Sheares Bridge etc., you will likely to notice that drivers on the 1st lane tend to 'jiak' the 2nd lane because of the centre divider. When a driver is not in the habit of sticking to his own lane, this habit will be brought along even on a straight road. As such, I have regularly seen drivers driving between lanes even on a straight road. Driving into another lane often happens when one is driving fast and is not able to control the vehicle to stick to its lane. Therefore, the next time you drive, check out how many times and over what distance you encroach into another lane because many may not even be conscious of such driving habit. Have a nice day and drive safe!

The original thread was posted by Hhx87 in Tips & Resources under the thread "For those who met an ACCIDENT! READ!" which is apparently accessible to members only. Hence, this thread which is under General Car Discussion. Quote Hhx87 "hi guy sorry to hijack the thread... as i have low posting... i am unable to create a thread... My In-Cam Car recorded one accident along Chua Chu Kang Road junction of Teck Whye Lane on 20 March 2012 at about 0718hrs. One Gold 5-series BMW rear hit onto a P-plate M/cycle. I wish to state that I have the footage of accident with me. If you (motorist victim) need the video accident, kindly contact me so that i can pass you the video Unquote -------------------------------------------------------------- From the video, it appears that the BMW driver was callous to cause such nasty crash into the motorcyclist. While the motorcyclist may appear ok, I hope he will not suffer bad injury following the aftermath of the accident. For Hhx87, it may be a helpful to make an on-line report to TP website and send the video for their record and/or action if the VRN of both vehicles are available. Such accident could have been avoided if the BMW driver had PRACTICED LANE DISCIPLINE!!! Drivers who caused such accidents should be suspended and resend for retraining!
