SMRT Taxi Crashed At Nanyang Flyover Exit 38

Happen to see this driver badly shaken n gazing at his badly damaged taxi while on my way
to NTU, Nanyang Technological University this morning around 815am.

As you can see from the pictures below, one of the lamp posts next to the zebra crossings
at Nanyang Flyover Exit 38 is being knocked down by the SMRT taxi. Slanted poistion now!

And how on earth did the taxi get onto the grasspatch next to the zebra crossing ???

Safe Landing on the Grass

I reckon that the taxi driver may have skidded hsi vehicle on the wet road while trying to "drift"
or filter to the left into NTU (Pioneer Entrance, Nanyang Flyover Exit 38) from the PIE.

If i have cycled  into this path 5mins earlier , i would not have the chance to blog abt this.

So my dear readers, no where in Singapore is truly safe not even on the pedestrains walkway.

Morale of the story is "open our eyes big big for any potential ku ku drivers..."

"When You Sms Dun Walk, When U Walk Dun Sms."


After the accident, when on the way down to Jurong West . Took some pictures at around 940am.
