Cabby jailed for knocking down and killing passenger he was trying to pick up

By Ian Poh

SINGAPORE - A cabby who knocked down and killed a passenger he was trying to pick up was sentenced to six months in prison and banned from driving for eight years on Thursday.
Tan Hie Koon, 51, had driven his vehicle into the Geylang area at around 4am on Sept 17, 2010, in search of a last fare for the night.
He ran into Ms Bui Thi Hon Mai, 31, who had just had supper with friends and was standing on the far right lane of Geylang Road to flag a taxi.
After knocking her down, Tan's vehicle mounted the kerb and crashed into a pillar supporting a row of shophouses.

it's not about intentionally killing someone on the road, this is an accident..! do you think the cab driver want this to happen? the judge is another stupid sinkie, thinking she knows better than drivers on the road. somemore it's a she, women are the worst drivers. fine and ban is bad enough, jail for accident is the worst kind of punishment that a peasant can get.

Yes for sure that should be the penalty for taxi drivers especially if they post and drive.

What's wrong with you? This patriotic sinkie taxi driver run down a Viet bu FT in Geylang. No prize for guessing what a Vietnamese female would be doing in Geylang at 4am ........having supper. Probably fucked her last client for the night, and got hungry. If more sinkies would kill more FTs the country would be a better place.
