Posting accident vids online is just disrespectful to the deceased and their loved ones

i can understand the trauma... i lost my cousin to a lousy container truck driver in M'sia on the NS highway... looking at the picture does trigger some pain, but sometimes i just wanted to know exactly what happened... pictures and videos does help resolve some conflicts in the mind and help coming to terms with reality a bit faster... it's painful, but it's the fastest way...

Even if they were really swerving to avoid a cyclist, must have been high speed to split the car into two.

The video is not from me, but hopefully it can serve as a warning to the many souped up cars around, especially roads like Guillemard Rd with many ah tiong cyclists and jaywalkers...

Another WRX pwned at Guillemard last year

were there any people waiting in the bus stop at the time of the accident?

From what I recall, noone was hurt. Driver also escaped unscathed.

the entry into Guillemard road from Paya Lebar road has a number of bends before Lorong 40, or some where near the Korean School, and it's a straight road thereafter. not a good idea to speed there, i'll go maximum 50km/h on 4th gear.

I differ on posting videos or pics of accidents...Yound punks and lao heroes out there should see some of this real singapore gory pictures to let them know how they may ended up as if they continue to zoom around recklessly in their souped up rides...Show them smashed heads, ripped shoulders, dislocated arms etc

What rubbish! We're well into the 21st century and gory videos on the internet are a perfectly acceptable aspect of modern life.

The loved ones would probably be even more upset if videos of the deceased did not end up on the net!

I find that it is totally ok for that. nothing wrong.

Maybe you can put yourself in a family member's shoes. Imagine coping with a loss and dealing with kaypohs at the same time...?

Different people deal with tragedy differently. It might bring closure to some ... but I think amateur videos shouldn't be broadcasted. I do question the intention of the youTube poster of this vid.

Dys - I know the video is not yours. Someone else put it on youTube. Cheers!

If loved ones view an accident video and it shows that the deceased died as a result of his own damned stupidity, it will end their grief immediately and they'll be rejoicing at the fact that the idiot is no longer around to cause more carnage!

I guess you've been de-sensitised after watching too many Faces of Death and Cannibal Holocaust videos

i do agree that video is amateurish... it was recorded using mobile?

i saw a moron in a Porsche almost knocking a rider down this morning, that rider was like a circus clown with many plastic bags hanging on the left handle only.

maybe some of the porn stuff he watched is even more gruesome than scenes from an accident. :p

Porn? What does porn have to do with me?

My friend told me that F1 is very noisy, you mean they gonna have another F1 race?

It's an annual event, for goodness sake. Only occasionally certain years, some races in some countries may be cancelled

hmm... i supposed these folks filming don't know first aid, or perhaps there's nothing much they could do to help the two dying men... :(

already know they're dying liao, give 1st aid also no use liao. give 1st aid only preserve their suffering. keep them alive, and they'd be reminded of the accident each time they go geylang for hanky panky. leave them to die a quicker death is maybe the most humane thing to do.

if possession & discharging firearms was legal, i think the witness at the scene would've chose to end the driver's pain.

what toking u? the deceased themselves didn't put themselves in their loved one's shoes. they didn't cherish their own lives, they didn't consider the feelings of the loved ones. they seek thrills, but end up with spills. can only say, they got themselves into this mess.

if they know how to love & cherish life, spare a thought for the loved ones, this fatality wouldn't have happened. at the very most, escape with minor scratches.
