WARNING! Graphic video.

Damn, the 599 was going so fast the engine flew that far upon impact? And why the f**k would you beat a red light in a Ferrari? Recipe for disaster, it was.

Condolences to the families of the occupants of the taxi.

I heard about this. Really tragic. I hear this intersection is particularly bad for t bone accidents as well with a profoundly telling history of crashes. The Ferrari here not only blows the red but looks to be traveling at idiotic speeds considering it's in the presence of roads with cross traffic. Just no excuse. Gives exotic drivers a bad name .

On a more academic note, consider that this was perpetrated by a man in his 30s from the PRC (you'll understand why I'm dragging nationality into this soon) driving an unbelievably rare and expensive car with a passenger who's 11 years younger and for whom people have no explanation of why she would end up his passenger. Unless it turns out they're related, I'm inclined to believe the hostess/mistress explanation despite her friends saying she was a full time student and has a boyfriend.

The above is the exact type of decadence and attitude that Mao built the PRC to prevent. While it happened in Singapore (which is another matter entirely, don't let me get into what a PR disaster this has been for immigration sentiments) it still reminds me of an incident where a woman in her Mercedes in China was honking at an old vagrant woman to get out of her way and when the vagrant didn't react fast enough, she ran the vagrant woman over. That's about as anti-communist and socialist as you can get.

ferrari driver let off right before he hit he prob knew he was done for

Jesus, why the hell don't they know when to stop at a red light!? Condolences to the families of the affected.

That was scary to watch.. but seriously he was WAY over the limit

news update for this accident

the family of the dead chinese driver is suing the singapore insurance company AXA in court as the insurance company is not paying out since the accident is cause by the ferrari driver

personally this case will favor AXA esp with the video evidence

The Chinese driver deserves nothing.

His wife should be ashamed of herself for demanding money from the insurance company when his reckless behavior murdered 2 innocent people

This is the biggest problem with supercars. people who can afford them rarely have enough brains to poor s**t out a boot, with instructions on the heel in brale(sp?)

new updates for the news

http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/sin...1234500/1/.html

upon investigations the ferrari was travelling at 178km/h upon the moment of impact based on the onboard camera the ferrari was fitted with and the driver set the car setting into "Race Mode" plus he was on medication which made him drowsy on that day of the accident.


so bottom line is the ferrari driver was 100% at fault

supposedly there's three other videos of the crash from other angles including the in car footage. Anyone else able to find them?

Agreed.

Too much money, too little experience with driving
