Okok... I happen to know the SE personally... And my heart goes
out for her....
And if strike TOTO was me it would be great but i strike it in
another way which is the I also know the driver of the MX 5.
Firstly, Rest In peace Angelia....
2ndly the story goes like this:
The driver was driving and he wasn't speeding, cos any kid will
know the road is so congested at that time along upper paya lebar
road and no way for u to speed under such congestion and a car
swerve into his lane. he wanted to avoid the car by swerving left,
but the road is made of metal plates and mind u the plates are
slippery even if it's not wet, thus the MX 5 being a FR car the car
oversteered instead. the driver isn't familair with a FR car tried
to counter steer but the rear right of the car hit the divider and
the car was tossed to the next lane. Mind u when a car oversteers
with a driver not knowing how to control the oversteer( many of
singapore drivers do not anyway) can go above the speed he was
actually travelling thus going over the divider is not surprising
at all.
Anyway with the rear right side hitting the divider, the force will
make the frontal of the car slid to the left in a 180 angle, thus
causing the car to flip (not somersault that type of flip) to the
oppersite lanes. before the car actually landed again on the ground
(it went over the divider of course not all 4 wheels are on contact
with the ground), it so happen the angle the car is facing is the
front of the car facing the right side meaning oncoming vehicles is
going head on to the pessenger side, the BMW came smashing onto the
car. and the MX 5 is still not really on 4 wheels yet thus the
impact of a 1700kg car would easily flip a 1100kg car a few rounds
into mid air as the mx 5 is in midair before the impact. (Kids also
will know this). Doesn't nees the MX5 or the BMW to be speeding to
cause the flip... 50-60km is all it takes. the the car landed on a
van...... the rest is already publish on papers.
I wouldn't say it is not his fault BUT i would say judging from the
situation it is not entirely his fault too... Call him names and
assume watever theory all U want. But one thing I know is that the
driver is going to live with guilt for the rest of his life. He
hasn't been himself and is not in a right state of mind saying
weird things like " I think i should go down and say sorry to her"
such stuffs.
The gal is my Fren. And my heart hurts more than any one of u here.
And I so happen to also know the driver which I was damn angry with
him at first but after hearing how the accident occured and seeing
him ao remourseful and sucidal makes me lost and pity him too......
Anyway he will sure face his punishment from the law but his worse
is to live with a guilt the rest of his life.
And if u guys wanna ask me how come i know so much details of the
whole accident.........................
I rushed down to the accident scene shortly after the accident. in
fact the driver was in a daze and dun really know wat happen and i
got the whole story fom the workers that witness the accident and
from the van driver that the MX5 landed on. Later on then i get to
hear the drivers side of the story which very similialy tally with
the rest of the eye witnesses.
watever it is:
To Angelia: May your soul Rest in Peace and see u in heaven when
it's my turn.
To her family and Boyfrend: My heart goes out to you. Sincere
consoledense.
To the Driver: You will face punishment from the law and guilt
ridden for the rest of your life. But you are alive and life still
goes on. I know u feel like dieing. But u have your parents to
think for. We already have one tragedy where a mother lost her
daughter. we dun need another one where a mother and father will
lose their son.
