A personal mobility device (PMD) user suffered minor injuries after he was hit by a truck in Ubi on Tuesday (Nov 26) afternoon. Footage of the accident, shared on the SG Road Vigilante Facebook page, shows the elderly man riding his PMD across the road just as a truck drives down the exit slope of an industrial compound at Ubi Road 1. As he reaches the middle of the road, the truck bumps into the PMD, causing him to topple. He props himself against the road with his right arm and struggles to free himself. The truck then reverses, causing the PMD rider to fall onto his back. He subsequently sits up as the truck driver and another person go to his aid.
How do you measure a man? By the car he drives? Or the different classes of vehicles he is licenced to operate? In an argument between two car drivers in a carpark, one pointed out he was driving a BMW while the other, who was driving a Mazda, boasted about holding four classes of driving licences. Videos of the confrontation between the two men in the open carpark at Hougang Avenue 5 on Nov 17 were posted online. The dispute started after the black Mazda 3 came to a stop and appeared to block the path of the oncoming white BMW 318. PHOTO: Screengrab/Facebook/Roads.sg The BMW honked at the Mazda to give way, but the Mazda driver probably thought there was enough room for the BMW to squeeze past and so he merely honked. This led to the two cars honking at each other until both drivers eventually got out of their vehicles and confronted each other.
The Animal Concerns Research and Education Society (Acres) has highlighted a recent case of animal abuse. In a video posted to Acres' social media accounts, co-CEO of its advocacy branch Anbarasi Boopal said the organisation had received a report of «horrific cruelty» towards a reticulated python. According to Acres, the incident took place at an unknown location on Nov 20. «I'm here today because I'm overwhelmed with disgust, shock and frustration,» Boopal said. In the clip provided to Acres, two men can be seen setting a live reticulated python on fire using spray cans and a lighter. One of the men can also be seen stepping on the snake's head. At the end of the video, the snake is transferred into a clear container and appears to be alive and moving. Addressing the clip, Boopal said the two men were trying to capture the python, which appeared to be stuck in machinery and did not struggle or pose any danger to anyone. The pair then used a flammable spray and a lighter to burn the snake three times, she added.
