Seriously how will the family of taxi uncle survive from today onwards?

The medical bills, the future kids school fees and the wake money.

[Cklasse]

I think there may be a slight chance of surviving if the taxi has side and window bags. Research has shown that window bag helps in cushioning the head during a side impact.

Taxi driver gone. From the video footage, seems like the Ferrari driver was not aware of the red light and dashed across causing the fatal accident.

i saw a youtube clip on side impacts.. at 62mph, it was already quite bad even after the curtain bags were deployed

at that speed this ferrari hit the cab, they probably won't help..

Cabby's daughter puts plans to further study on hold. Seriously with the cabby being the sole breadwinner, sad to say if he did not buy sufficient insurance, now everything has gone haywire. What a freak accident, wrong place at wrong time.

"Friends said he was a hard-working and righteous person who worked as a financial investor. He was also applying for permanent residency in Singapore."

Wake of Mr Cheng, the taxi driver who died at the Ferrari crash, is at Blk 306 Canberra Road (13-17th May). He was a sole breadwinner.

Via mr brown.

I tot was ferrari driver (PRC) with a young lady passenger (PRC), not only beating the red lights but also tavelling at insane speeds and crash into a taxi driver (S'porean) and passenger (Jap). No?

Must be ferrari driver trying to impress the young passenger and cause the accident. Sad.

Man steals $300 from struggling woman in taxi instead of helping her

tsk tsk tsk..

Nevermind, that man will meet his accident soon... He is a beast! People asking for help and still steal the money...

[knighthunter]

Based on the video no sign of the ferari breaking...I feel sad for the taxi driver and passenger who died.

It seems drunk driving or simply senseless speeding.

[chsurfer]

It's really obvious that the Ferrari driver didn't see the red light.

If you look at the first 5 secs, the road in the opposite direction of the ferrari (right side) was in the 'turn right' signal for some time already, which then turned red before the sonata moved off.

That means the Ferrari's road was already red for more than 10 seconds, plus the Ferrari never braked.

[HYM]

a few of my friends are rallying their colleagues, my wife is rallying hers and I'm doing for mine too. collecting white gold to bring down to the wake.

[Ppp]

That ferrari idiot driver is totally drunk... Or he is play with the girl beside him thats why never see the red light...

[chsurfer]

Also notice the merc driver who stopped and hazard near the end of the video.. hope he/she did some good

[Seaclass]

That ferrari idiot driver is totally drunk... Or he is play with the girl beside him thats why never see the red light...

Either that or he was misled by the Next traffic light ahead as the next traffic light may confuse motorists from afar that stretch.

In any case, from now let's take our own sweet time to move off once e lights turn green if you happen to be 1st car. Must always check before proceeding.

[twisti]

the traffic light at the ferrari's direction might have already been red even before the video started!
