My opinion of reading the papers, looking at the graphics & viewing the site through Google Maps. It is not fair for Mdm Ang to assume that the cement mixer driver killed her two boys. The driver maybe at fault for being in a hurry, he had the right of way in that turn & had a blind spot. From the graphics, the boys rode into the left side of the cement mixer not head on.
I am sure the police investigation team would have done their measuring & recording of the accident site, we will have to wait for the coroners to present the findings. Then we can determine if the cement mixer driver killed her two boys.
My opinion is both is at fault, (1) Driver in a hurry (2) Boys in a hurry, (mum's heading for work at MacDonald's)
Why her two boys were taken away by God, only she & her husband will know. Cannot just blame others at the moment, i know it isn't easy.
What are you opinion?

He killed my boys but I forgive him
Madam Suliani Ang said her anger at the driver who killed her sons has turned into forgiveness as he must be suffering too. -TNP

The New Paper
When her sons were killed in an accident with a cement truck in Tampines, Madam Suliani Ang pedalled furiously to the scene, only to see their broken bodies next to their mangled bike.Recalling the traumatic episode, she breaks down in her first full media interview with The New Paper on Sunday.
But, she says, her anger at the driver has turned into forgiveness - because he must be suffering too.
SINGAPORE - It's a day she will never forget. Ever.
It was around 7pm last Monday evening. Madam Suliani Ang, 38, had just started her shift at the counter at a fast-food restaurant in Tampines Mart, not far from the flat where she lives with her husband and two sons, Nigel and Donavan Yap. Picking up her mobile phone, she noticed that there were several missed calls from her husband, and a text message in Chinese. It read: "The Traffic Police called and said our two boys have died in a traffic accident." Speaking to The New Paper on Sunday in her first full media interview last Friday night, Madam Ang recalls tearfully: "My heart went dead then."In a two-hour interview at her family's four-room HDB flat in Tampines Street 44, Madam Ang, born in Indonesia and now a Singapore citizen, recounts the events on the fateful day when her two boys were killed when a cement truck rammed into them at the junction of Tampines Ave 9 and Tampines Street 45 as they were cycling home from school. Her elder son, Nigel, 13, had volunteered to pick his brother Donavan, seven, up from school after the younger boy's wushu class. Madam Ang had planned to leave for work only after the boys had come home that evening.
She recalls: "I waited but they had not come home, so I sent a text message to Nigel and told him, 'Mummy is going off to work. When you're back, please remember to teach Ah Di (little brother in Hokkien) his spelling'."I thought since it was Donavan's first day of wushu class, he could have been delayed in school." Madam Ang reported for work at about 6pm.
