Jesus told you again
When you stand, the view is different from the driver who is seated, you are basically looking down and the view is better, but the view from the driver at the side is almost blind.
hope victim not opposition voter lah
Ahbuden? You think? Or drivers must just pay more attention.
Best case scenario the driver is ft and victim is pap supporter....
Then the family will turn anti pap and that's a few more opposition votes right there

Crossing at T-junction is the most fxxking dangerous thing to do in Singapore.
Vehicles, coming out from side road and turning right into main road, always try to beat the pedestrians.
I myself have seen one accident and quite many near-misses (and had personally experienced 3 near-misses so far).
Wtf is the authority doing? :oIo:
This accident happen in Sengkang in 2012.
A SBS Transit Bus Service 159 made a right turn and simply ran over the woman without stopping to allow her to pass. The woman was reportedly dragged under the bus before other motorists alerted the bus driver to stop.

I once sat on the right side of a SBS bus, that almost hit someone on the right side during a right turn. I saw the near-miss, the driver did not.
Another off-duty driver was on the left side of the bus, not knowing anything. Since I was about to drop off, I told the off-duty driver about the near-miss and asked him to alert the driver when it's safe to do so.
The first thing he said to me was: "whoa! you are so smart har???" in chinese. Really felt like a big KAYPOH.
Are they properly trained to think safety first? I seriously doubt so.
Thank you. Many times I think it is safer to jaywalk, than to follow the green man to hell.
Relying on red man is safer because there are no vehicles to turn unexpectedly into your path.
Used to be quite safe to cross when green man is on, but not anymore.
The import of these foreign drivers that comes from a land which shows little respect for traffic rules is now a danger to take for granted that they would stop when turning.
Safety rule of thumb is even if green man is on, wait for the vehicles to come to a stop before crossing.
Collateral damage from the 6.9m policy
Which part u saw say victim using phone.
Clearly is driver tired n reckless.
F your family die by roadside.
A turning bus isn't exactly a fast-moving vehicle. That gives you more than enough time to see the bus coming, provided you are observant instead of playing with your handphone while walking.
I saw a video of a bus driver looking into his handphone for a good full minute when he was driving. Before he could lift up to look, the bus which he was driving smashed into a stationary lorry packed on the side of the road. He was fortunate to have survived.
This accident can be prevented if the bus driver has been more alert. He should have watched out for the woman crossing the road. She had the right of way as the green man was on. I think the bus driver must have been distracted when maneuvering the bus to make the bend ... as most drivers would do when making a bend, we first check out the traffic on the opposite lane , and if there is none, we would drive forward and will slow down before the next crossing and look out for any pedestrians before turning...
But of course ....if it is below , the bus driver is more interested to look at the other "woman "...
