Chitchat how much would you settle????

[theblackhole]

The couple involved in an accident along the Ayer Rajah Expressway last year, when a man drove his car into oncoming traffic, has reached a settlement with the driver in High Court.

Mr Teh Tze Yong and his wife Janice Choo, both 35, were on a motorcycle on their way to work when a Mercedes-Benz driven by Lim Chai Heng, 53, hurtled towards them on Dec 19 last year.

Lim's car caused a collision involving four cars, a motorcycle and a bus. The incident left one dead.

Madam Choo, an administration executive, broke her left leg while her husband, a forklift driver, had fractures on both hands and injured three fingers.

According to court documents, Lim has accepted full responsibility in a civil suit filed by Mr Teh and his wife. The exact amount of damages will be determined at a later court hearing.

The couple had put in a combined claim of about $553,000 against Lim for damages such as medical and transport expenses and loss of earnings.

Me come back Singapore dare not drive here. Bangkok safer and easier to drive. Drivers there so courteous you signal they slow down and let you go. You wait at a U-turn long time on coming vehicle can stop let you go, vehicle behind the car that stopped will never horn they will let all the vehicle do their u-turn until no more vehicle then they move. I asked why the Thais said there are many vehicle on the road so if he don't give the u-turn vehicle chance to turn that car may have to wait forever. Big heart, cool heart, good heart.

In Singapore when one signal to change lane the rest will be like kan-ni-lau-bu-chao-jeebye it's my lane right of way limpeh block you gao-gao

 

[dancingshoes]

i also was back in sg for a while, i think the consequences of such accidents are too frequent and mainly attributed by the siao charbors at SPH and mediacock. they have to bear full responsibility for publishing stories that stirred up the feelings of "wire-loose" jealous sinkies. at this point of time, i sincerely hope there won't be another accident at braddell road soon.

It was the wife's fault. She scolded him all the way to the Tuas checkpoint. He endured her nagging throughout the journey. It was when she told him that she forgot to bring their passports and told him to turn back that he finally lost his mind. The rest is a tragic history.
