Its a good thing that we dun have such roads in singapore. The
99 bends, 40-tiangs, changi per-kee-lor, pioneer rd have cost alot
of death oredi. Its ok that they die as its their own choice that
they wanna play but prob arises when they DONT die.
Just my POV.[/b]
personally i think it's BECAUSE we don't have roads like this
that we have all these so called ah beng racers, becoz the only
thing they know how to do is open their bloody throttle to play
drag racing.
with roads like this, you actually learn how to control your bike,
better skill, less chance of tipping over.
you're putting it as though the japanese riders don't buang over
there. they do, and the numbers are high, not to mention there're
even cases of cars breaking the railings and falling down the
cliff.
yes it's a cliff, that aspect alone would already instill caution
in most sensible riders, beng or not.
the vehicle insurance industry has been making a loss for quite a
few years, not just the past couple years because of the insurgence
of 2b bikers. it's because they've been charging too low rates, and
were afraid to spoil the market by increasing the prices.
singapore is a small market, our riders are limited, if they were
to charge us the same price as they do other countries like japan,
us, europe, they'd be bankrupt long ago. the market there is
bigger, the larger number of riders offset the costs incurred for
the infloated payouts.
if you want to blame anything, blame it on the fact that we're a
small nation.
