It's not the habit of most drivers to adhere to this practice.
Why was the motorcyclist traveling on the extreme right lane? Braddell exit should be a two lane exit.
How come the 2nd car immediately behind 1st car managed to stop in time without bumping into its rear but the motorcyclist third in row slammed so badly into second car?
Were there safety distance, delayed reaction and speed control issues?
What are the chances of any driver doing a jam brake on an extreme right lane?
He probably switched on hazard lights and came to a halt within a matter of seconds. If second driver stopped his car and didn't sustain minor injuries but the motorcyclist behind him got flung and landed 20m away, who was the one speeding? Pardon me but it's common sight for young motorcyclists to travel at high speed, weaving in and out of traffic, take on extreme right lane even when they are clearly not supposed to.
In the first place, the headline for this article is one sided and very misleading. It could've been Motorist charged for traffic offence approaching ERP gantry. But hey it's TNP afterall. Tabloid paper.
To be honest, if I were in his shoes, I would have adopted the same views and attitude. If he were sobbing in court, readers would have that action as tears of guilt. It's a real no win situation.
Matthiessen, do you drive? Hope you don't, we dont need drivers like you on the road :(

yes i have to agree the build quality, stability & design is good. but bear in mind it's a 4-year-old model already.
08 altis & lancer EX are nice. you should consider these two also! if you buy lancer EX, please buy it in white.
Huh i thought that is the average FC for mz3? haha, what are you getting?No man, my right foot is not heavy, seldom rev it above 3k.
Dunno lah, maybe the way i calculate the FC is not very accurate. haha..

I would like a lot to test-drive a Lamborghini..
The looks and sound is so... Beautiful I guess.. Though it looks a bit to masculine.. Not much balance.
I guess Ferrari's got both. Actually it's not a guess. I know so..
No offence bro, but do try to make your own money first before even thinking about these. Seen your posts to be rather immature. Think about how to afford your own humble car like a Kia Picanto before even thinking about cars like Audi R8, Rolls Royce or Lamborghini.Cheers

Wa biang that guy is too much.. too stubborn liao.. But i guess it is alright to go against traffic in the condo carpark, as long as the speed is dead slow and doesnt cause inconvenience /danger to others. i do it all the time, as otherwise, i have to go one big round in the correct direction when the exit to my underground carpark is just near me..

Everyone does it, and we do give way to each other..Edited by HeXy 11 Mar `08, 10:45AM
