I was on my way home after buying dinner at Jurong Point on Tuesday night.
As he was preparing to make a U-turn on Jurong West Street 63 at around 6 p.m., he heard a knock from the back.
The driver, who wanted to be known only as Mr. Koh, told The New Paper that when he looked in the rear view mirror, he realized that a motorcycle had hit his car.
Koh, 30, said: “It was the first time in 10 years of driving that I was hit from behind, but I knew I had to take photos as proof.”
He said he got out of his car and claimed he smelled alcohol on the passenger. The driver dismounted and proceeded to clean the paint on his motorcycle that had ended up on Mr. Koh’s car.
Then he mounted his motorcycle and took off.
Koh said, “I was surprised. He had the audacity to give me a rude gesture and walk away without saying anything.”
Later, Mr. Koh drove to a nearby parking lot and reported the incident to the police.
On the advice of his friends, he posted video of the incident taken with his car camera on the SG Road Vigilante Facebook page.
In response to the video, a man contacted Koh the next day and told him that a private bus he owned was allegedly hit by the same motorcycle.
From the timestamp in a video taken from the bus and later posted on the same Facebook page, Mr. Koh realized that the accident occurred a few minutes after his.
In the video, the passenger can be seen zigzagging through a narrow space between two buses, one of them an SBS bus, before colliding with the second private bus.
The impact causes the rider to land shoulder-first on the road.
When two men exit the buses, the driver can be seen picking up his motorcycle and driving away.
Police told TNP they were alerted to an accident between a car and a motorcycle at the intersection of Jurong West Street 64 towards Boon Lay Way and Jurong West Street 63 on Tuesday at 6.05pm.
No injuries were reported and investigations are ongoing.
