A horrific accident that took place in Singapore this past Saturday leaving three people dead and two seriously injured has fueled an outrage in the country.
The crash was captured on film by a vehicle that was not involved in the incident. The video footage shows a blue Hyundai Sonata taxicab pulling ahead a couple of seconds after the green light goes on.
As the taxi reaches the middle of the crossing, we see a speeding red car, later recognized as a rare Sg$1.8 million (US$1.43 million) Ferrari 599 GTO, smashing into the blue sedan. The Ferrari most likely ran a red light. According to reports, the taxi then hit a motorcyclist.

The 2012 edition of the wacky Gumball 3000 rally is almost upon us as the event, which will see contestants driving some 3,000 miles from New York City to Toronto and from there to Los Angeles in seven days, starts on May 25.
Among the many participants is Team Autogespot from Holland that will run in a rare Ferrari 599 GTO.
The limited edition Italian supercar, which is powered by a tweaked 6.0-liter V12 engine churning out 670-horses at 8,250 rpm and maximum torque of 620Nm (457 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, is dressed up in a rather awkward looking vinyl wrap with cart-postal-like automobile pictures.
Perhaps the lovely Dutch ladies posing next to it in the videos that follow after the break will succeed in deflecting your attention away from the wrap.
