TL;DR - An accident involving a Ferrari with a Singapore-registered licence plate and a Toyota Altis occurred in Muar, Malaysia recently. The result of letting a 22 year old drive a ferrari… Here’s some pictures of a $600k supercar losing the entirety of its value in different angles. And a beyond damage Altis. What Happened?

What do you do when the lights turn amber? Do you floor the accelerator and hope to make it past, or would you depress the brake pedal and slow down like what your driving instructor taught? The driver of this black SUV probably hopes he had went with the latter. Look what Netizens have to say of the incident... These commenters actually have a good point, by keeping a safe distance and preparing to stop (slow down when approaching traffic junctions!), many accidents such as this can be avoided. So, remember, keep a distance, stay sharp and always be prepared to stop, then you won't have to deal with the headache when your car looks like this.

I had the unfortunate case of being rear ended last Sat while queuing up for the traffic lights at a cross junction. As my car (Nissan) had a remaining warranty of 2 months left (registered in Jan 2012), I have decided to go to Tan Chong Ubi to report the accident. They gave me 2 options, claim own damage or third party claim. I choose the third party claim from NTUC (the other guy's insurance). But since the boot of my car cannot be closed, I am quite tempted to claim my own damage from AIG (my insurer) and from then claim it from NTUC. The Tan Chong Ubi guy has advised me to go for it if I want to repair my car asap (within 14 days of reporting the accident), but I am aware that I will lose my NCD (currently at 50%), have to pay the excess ($1000) and may be subject to insurance loading when it comes for renewal in Jan 2015. The good thing is, my car can be repaired immediately. Not sure what are your opinions on this.
