I nearly puked when I saw the Hermes Belt.
yes, but why Hermes produce this type of design?

The pictures show that damage to the Ferrari was mainly to the front while the taxi's left side was crushed. This suggests that the Ferrari had crashed into the left side of the taxi. Given the position of the vehicles after the crash, the taxi must have been travelling along Rochor Rd towards Bencoolen St when it was hit by the Ferrari coming out the junction along Victoria St (towards Kallang). The condition of the vehicles can only mean that the Ferrari was travelling at a speed well over the limit. There also does not seem to be any attempt by the driver to stop (no skid marks on the road), i.e. he probably didn't even know he was going to hit someone.
Very very sad for all concerned, but mostly to the innocent law-abiding road users.
I was at the junction where the accident happened around noon. There was absolutely no skid marks near the areas where the collision must have occurred. I don't discount the possibility that LTA has had the road tarred over yesterday but I doubt it.
I'm willing to bet the Ferrari Ah Tiong was not wearing his seat harness or he'd still be alive. I don't know what the configuration of those sold in Singapore is but in NZ, they look like this. Put that on and you can smash into a guard rail at 120kph and still survive. I've seen it happen at the local race track.

Read the chinese newspaper that this shitty how lian business man FT's wife was pregnant but instead of being at home he was with a 20 years old female passenger!!
He must be showing off his driving skill when he killed himself along with another taxi passenger!

I don't think they have an A&E that can handle this type of trauma cases.

It is unlikely that he had on a racing harness like the one shown. And yes, despite (because of?) the crumpling of the engine compartment, the safety cage appeared to be mostly intact. So, the driver not wearing a three point seatbelt is a distinct possibility.
