Pedestrian dies after being struck by Ferrari
By Sujin Thomas
An Indian national was killed after he was hit by a Ferrari along Clementi Road last Saturday.
Mr S Raja, a 22-year-old construction worker, was crossing the street near The Japanese School at about 8pm when he was struck by the sports car.
He was flung several metres and died on the spot from severe head injuries.
He was with a colleague from construction company Sato Kogyo. The other man was not injured in the collision.
The 37-year-old driver of the Ferrari was arrested and is assisting police with their investigations.
The car had a shattered windscreen and a damaged front bumper.
Its left rear-view mirror had also been ripped off.
According to The New Paper, a co-worker said Mr Raja had been in Singapore for almost two years and had been looking forward to going home after earning some money.
"Now it will never happen," said the co-worker.
There have been other high-profile accidents involving sports cars over the years.
In 1997, a Porsche driven by a car jockey rolled down a slope at Goodwood Park Hotel. The German- made coupe hit another vehicle along the way, sending both cars down the slope. The Porsche then rolled onto Scotts Road, where it rammed into a taxi, which then crashed into a goods lorry.
Two tourists inside the taxi suffered cuts and bruises.
In August last year, two 19-year-olds died after the Mazda MX-5 they were in careened off the road, slammed into a tree and a brick wall, and went up in flames.
The bodies of Mr William Widjaja, the driver and a Singapore permanent resident, and Mr Alexander Henry Davies, a Briton, were charred beyond recognition.
