They were equally amazed at how smoothly he slid across the intersection. A netizen joked, “When you get into an accident, but your crush is across the road looking.” Many noted that his attire passed with flying colours. “Tested and proven, his raincoat is good! Rip proof and doubles up as a sliding suit!” added Facebook user Erik Nebosuke Xie. “That’s superbly the best power slide I have ever seen. You can be the ambassador of the rain pants you have worn! Definitely a great testimonial!” said Facebook user Oh Vic./TISG https://theindependent.sg/motorcyclist-sent-flying-into-the-air-after-collision-with-vehicle-at-ang-mo-kio-st-52-junction/
