After having dinner and drinks at his office, a man sped at more than double the 60kmph limit on a road in Tampines before losing control of his Mercedes car.and into the driver's side of another car, killing its 59-year-old Gojek driver who had stopped at a red light with other vehicles.
His brother had given him permission to drive, and the intended journey home was about 10km, court documents stated. As Ng was about to turn left from Tampines Avenue 1 onto Tampines Avenue 10, he lost control of his car, which was going at a speed between 92kmph and 108kmph. The impact pushed the victim's car backwards and to the left, resulting in a collision with two other cars. One of the cars was ferrying a family with two children aged six and nine.
The other vehicles were also damaged in the accident, with the bills running into the thousands — the family's car cost almost S$19,000 to repair, while the Gojek driver's car was scrapped as it was too damaged to be fixed. Ng will return to court for mitigation and sentencing in July. He is represented by lawyers Shashi Nathan and Jeremy Mark Pereira from Withers KhattarWong.
