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 Ferrari driver, who was identified as Ma Chi, an affluent 31-year old Chinese expatriate, died on the scene, while the 51-year old cabbie, Cheng Teck Hoc, and his passenger, Shigemi Ito, a 41-year-old Japanese woman, succumbed to their injuries a couple of hours later at the hospital.
