In a society like #Singapore that's arguably skewed to #TypeX people, surely more punitive & #deterrent measures are necessary to deal with callous repeat offenders?🤔 #SaveLives #kopi
Repeat #offenders, #drink #driving #speedsters among 20 motorists to be charged
"In the case of a second or subsequent conviction for drink driving, #motorists may be fined up to $20,000 & #jailed for up to two years. They may also face disqualification from driving all classes of vehicles"

I'd like to nominate for the #Darwin award the 200 or so #motorists who tonight drove past (nearly over) a #motorcyclist who was lying on the ground after a serious #roadaccident on #TulseHill #London. Clearly no fucks given about human life, they just beeped and drove round over the pavement, with debris everywhere, cos the guy dared delay their journey. I had heard the horrible noise of crushed metal but thought no one had been injured from the way #cars were driving thereafter. I was wrong.
