Road Rage Exposed: Suntec City Red Vespa Ang Moh Mark Franklin
Yet another road rage incident involving an Ang Moh motorist happened on the roads of Singapore! According to the Singaporean victim Tay, the arrogant motorist flashed his middle finger and hit his car just because Tay tapped his horn (once) when the motorcyclist did an illegal U-turn.
…
Because of the authorities’s reticence in doing justice, The Unseen Singapore felt compelled to stand up for our fellow Singaporeans. Without further ado, we present to you, Mark Franklin, the Suntec City road rage motorist.
Based on the evidence given by Tay, the motorist speaks with a British accent and the incident happened at Suntec City.
After the incident, Singaporeans managed to track down the same Red Vespa FBE197R parked in the vicinity of Suntec City on at least two other occasions.
The video of the incident was then uploaded onto YouTube and a YouTube whistle blower by the name of Peter Lim exposed the motorist to be Mark Franklin, Managing Director of Piaggio Asia Pacific. Mark is obviously pretty “well-liked” to be outed like that on the internet.

Singapore online citizens slam ‘foreign talent’ road rage incident
By Nurul Azliah Aripin | What’s buzzing?
Looks like Singapore has found its new victim of online bashing after a “British” scooter rider was caught on camera flashing his middle finger at a driver while in the midst of making an illegal U-turn.
The video was shared by the driver himself and published on local blog The Real Singapore on 2 May, saying that the “arrogant motorist” had also hit his car after being given a “polite” honk.
“All I did was to give him a polite tap of my horn to signal to him that he is doing an illegal U-turn and that he is blocking the traffic. He could have just acknowledged it and move along, why did he need to intimidate me… I think he is from Britain,” said the driver, known as Tay.
The post sparked anti-foreigner sentiments and a stream of profanities among commenters on Facebook, Twitter as well as YouTube.
