Motorcycle Mayhem on Bartley Road: A Mazda Missteps & a Chase of Wheels
What Went Down
On December 11th, about 11:28 am, a Mazda cruise‑control‑mode hit a motorcyclist on Bartley Road East. The rider was sent spinning like a rubber band across the asphalt.
The Instant Reaction
- Camera footage (shared by Roads.sg on Facebook) shows the Mazda speeding off, discarding lane etiquette, and giving the motorcyclist a ruff kick.
- The rider’s hum (a hazy “Vroom!”) faded as the Mazda sped away, ignoring the sudden chaos.
But the Story’s Not Over
- The “in‑the‑moment” crafter of the video decided to follow the speeding Mug –? They chased the Mazda across the viaduct.
- Near Maris Stella High School, the Mazda smash‑boots two more cars. No injuries, but all four drivers spent a few moments chasing matches.
- After the extra crash, the video‑captor called emergency services, took snapshots of the wrecked vehicles, and then disappeared into the traffic‑crowded scene.
Police Update
Police found out about the first hit‑and‑run at about 11:35 am on Bartley Road East, close to Kaki Bukit Avenue 4. Here’s what they’re telling us:
- The motorcyclist, a 25‑year‑old woman, landed alive and was promptly taken to the hospital.
- The second crash involved the same Mazda and two other automobiles on Bartley Road, heading toward Braddell Road.
- No one got hurt in the follow‑up collision.
Ongoing Investigation
Authorities are still sniffing out details. Worse yet, the driver still hasn’t been caught – sorry, but there’s a big “Mazda on the loose” on the radar.
Takeaway
Speeding on public roads isn’t just a problem for traffic; it can send toes flying, cars crashing, and lives at risk. The lesson: Drunk on a motorway or a Mazda that takes a “second route”, remember you’re not just a passenger in a car – you’re on a road that’s there for everyone.
