‘She had a whole life ahead of her’: Boyfriend mourns Yishun fatal crash victim

[Aaron carter]

SINGAPORE – One of the last memories Mr Pombuena Kevin Paul Famacion has of his girlfriend is when she sang a love song to him, just a few days before she died in a car accident.

Ms Queenie Leong was on her way home from a birthday party in Bedok when the private-hire car she was in with a friend crashed into a public bus at the junction of Yishun Avenue 2 and Yishun Central 1 at about 5.35am on Aug 2.


A photo of the scene showed a silver car at the rear of a Tower Transit bus, its windows shattered and right doors left ajar, as Singapore Civil Defence Force officers attended to the emergency.

Her friend had tried to save Ms Leong, 23, immediately after the accident. Despite fracturing her arm in the accident, she performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation until the ambulance arrived at the scene.

Both women and the driver were taken to Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, where Ms Leong eventually died.

The Straits Times visited the wake set up at the void deck of Block 162 Yishun Street 11, where Ms Leong lived. Her father was too distraught to speak but said he wanted to understand how the accident happened.

Ms Leong’s friend had told the family that the driver was allegedly driving erratically before the incident and may have fallen asleep at the wheel.

Several of Ms Leong’s friends were at the wake on Aug 4 to pay their respects, including Mr Pombuena, a polytechnic student.

He said Ms Leong left the party before it ended as she had to pack for her trip to Johor Bahru with her family. They were going there to celebrate her sister’s birthday.

She booked a ride from East Villa at HomeTeamNS Bedok Reservoir at about 5am. Her friend Ong Meiyi shared the ride with her as they live close to each other.

Mr Sir Ludvig Kong, who was at the wake, said he was awakened by a pre-dawn call from Ms Ong, who sounded frantic. “I heard a lot of honking. Meiyi was screaming for help, and she said Queenie was not responding,” said the 22-year-old polytechnic student.

He called Mr Pombuena, who rushed to the hospital with Ms Leong’s family. He said Ms Leong’s heart stopped beating when they got there, and she had to be resuscitated.

Always wear a seat belt especially in the back seat.

Most people will just console the familee and take it as an unfortunate accident.

They never think deep enough to know that this sort of accident can be prevented and minimised when the root cause is identified.

And when they attempt to identify, they will not think with a clear mind like I always do. Hence they will point finger at the phv driver. Whereas I will point at tp/Lta aka gov aka pap.
The phv driver is just a by product of the poor pap governance.

That is the difference with a person with a full clear mindedness vs a person without a clear mind.

While I was still a driving instructor, I was 100% strict about my students. I will ensure they passed my stringent assessment, before I will give them a chop on the booklet, in order to move to the next stage.
I wanted to ensure, only 100% well qualified drivers (like myself, with 0 demerit points) can be seen on the driver seat.
Unfortunately me alone cannot make this happen.

And of course, having 100% well qualified drivers on the road, accident will bound to happen.
But, it will be greatly leeduced, by at least 90% and above.
And I can even anticipate, at certain time, it could even reach 99-100%

With my governance, a coe might not even be necessary. Becos not many people will be issued a valid driving license.
During the beginner assessment stage, I would even start to strike off potential people that are simply not meant for the road.

In case, some 100% well qualified were to be issued a valid license, and down the road, they become deem disqualify, due to mischief or reckless, drink driving etc their license will be leevoked for lifetime, without any suspension in place.

Some taxi and PHV drivers may be affected by Pfizer or Moderna especially if they drive too long hours, never ever board a car after 1-2am here as u never know the driver's condition

Gov can think of hanging drug abusers, murderers, but they and the people, never do self Lee flection that at the same time, they are allowing killers freely on the road.

And finally.
Did the gov think
Why a pilot license is hard to get?
Of course is becos hundreds of lifes are in their hand.
Now, gov can anyhow issue license to a driver?
Is it becos gov thinks that each car has lesser life's?
Did they see the yearly statistics that rta death exceed that of a plane?

So from here, we can see, the gov, despite knowing it, allow it to continue becos of gdp.
