Man charged over fatal accident
By Elena Chong, Courts Correspondent

A MAN was charged in court on Monday with negligently causing the deaths of his mother-in-law and son in a road traffic accident two years ago. Long Shi Pin, 37, was driving a car along Woodlands Road when it crashed into a tree, killing rear seat passengers, Madam Lee Tew Ngoh, 63, and six-year-old Matthew Long Chay En on May 28, 2006.
He is also accused of causing grievous hurt to his wife, Madam Jennifer Tham Ai Ping, 37, who was seated in front, and his sister-in-law, Ms Joann Tham Gek Peng, 33, seated at the back of the car.
He is said to have failed to keep a proper lookout while negotiating a slight left bend, causing the car to veer to the right, mount the centre road divider and hit the tree.
His mother-in-law and son died on the spot while the others were taken to hospital.
Bail of $10,000 was set.
If convicted of causing death, he can be jailed for up to two years and/or fined.
The punishment for causing grievous hurt is a fine of up to two years and/or $5,000.
A pre-trial hearing will be held on Aug 4.

I can still remember this accident quite clearly, as i saw the vehicle in a bad shape by the tree when i pass by the opposite road. By the time i pass by, only the vehicle is left there, saw airbag deployed. That day, I think i drive 60km/hr the whole day.

Increasingly, we are seeing more and more cases of husband killing children and relatives etc. type of cases. It's scary, given our small size, cos it really makes you wonder who these people are...and sooner or later, it's something we have to face up to and deal with.

The law is blind. he..he.. No passion, no emotions, no sentiments.
Basically the law is impartial and cold-blooded.

Agree that it is a sad story. But the law is the law. :smile:
