Sad indeed. It took simple brain power to realize this is a controlled street, red light means cross traffic is there.

You guys misinterpreted my meaning, I wasn't meant to be cold toward his wife, I am on her side. He was planning to cheat on her, died from stupidity, she got his money, now they are even and life goes on.

I don't believe I said anything mean.

There are tons of news from Asia on this incident, for anyone who is interested, google search "ma chi ferrari accident".

It is fun to read, the Ma's family is total **** too Not only are they not apologizing to the victims, they turn around and blame the Taxi for causing the accident, NICE.

Then the cops are pay off to report that Ma Chi was not intoxicated, NICE.

Now I am glad that dude died, sucker, rot in hell. Money won't help you there.

I was reading some of those stories, it''s crazy! Apparently the taxi driver that died had 3 children too! And the family of the Ferrari driver are trying to say it wasn't his fault....? Get real. One of the articles cite the speed was estimated to be around 180kmh (115mph) after analyzing the video vs. distance from the white line to where the taxi cab would have been. Even if he wasn't intoxicated, doesn't change the fact he was excessively speeding and flew right thru a red light. Things will only get more interesting when the passenger in the Ferrari makes a recovery and gives her side of the story.

If anything, the families of the taxi driver and the taxi passenger are owed an apology and some sort of settlement out of this!!!

In all honestly, how low do you have to be, to steal from a dead person?

That speeds sounds right (speaking as an experienced street racer)

She won't ever say anything. That is a triad family and what she was doing wasn't exactly anything to be proud of.

They would be lucky if the triad don't hurt them.

This is not a time to be pointing fingers but a time where we should recognize that 3 people are dead. Sadly I too had to witness something like this, happened right in front of me.


Condolences to all the families involved.

i understood exactly what you meant, her douchebag husband not only cheated on her but killed innocent people, she's better off without him. I pray everyday my child and his mother drive somewhere just because of a holes like this.
