Volvo XC40 driver mounts kerb and performs a 5-point turn to get out of a heavy jam at Woodlands checkpoint

Most people in Singapore purchase an SUV for its spacious body rather than its utility. 

And that makes sense as it is almost impossible to put an SUV to the test in a city environment such as Singapore. 

However, a particular Volvo driver did just that. 

Watch it here:

What Happened?

A recent Channel News Asia news article reported that "Heavy traffic through Woodlands and Tuas Checkpoints expected for the rest of June: ICA".

And truth be told, that was exactly what a Volvo XC40 driver experienced.

After getting impatient with the long wait, he decided to perform a 'u-turn' (which is obviously illegal).

Leveraging his SUV's ground clearance, the Volvo driver mounted the kerb and proceeded to make a 5-point turn to get himself out of the standstill jam. 

NGL, I am pretty amazed at the Volvo driver's attitude to performing whatever he did in the video above. 

Some possible reasons for his actions are:

1. Forgetting to bring his passport
2. Need to use the toilet urgently
3. To escape the heavy congestion
4. Got fuel check + his petrol tank below the mandated 3/4 tank

What do you think made the Volvo driver perform the 'u-turn'?

At most pay the fine for his illegal u-turn lor.

    Ready? Steady? Slow!

    Have you ever watched on of those baby crawling races? They are hilarious. I watch a lot of NBA, and sometimes they have these races as a halftime entertainment. And its hilarious because unlike most athletic races, there's an inherent unpredictability and chaos to these things. They get distracted, they get bored, they get tired. Babies doing baby things, you know.  Well, England thinks it can one-up the absurdity of racing: Introducing to you, Snail Racing.  It seems almost

    The Joys of Morning Walks

    Like most other folks stuck in the rut of smartphone-hyper-use, I recently caught myself doing the same each morning: Waking up to immediately reach for my phone. Reflecting on the first quarter of the year, however – and realising that I’ve been subconsciously plunged into an extended bout of languidness – brought me to the realisation: Perhaps it's time to embrace a different routine. One that started with stepping outside into the crisp morning air, and feeling the gentle warmth of

    The enduring charm of Singapore wet markets

    I know I’m idealising it all - as a not-so-young millennial that can’t remember the last time he cooked a full meal for himself. (That was probably a good two years ago.) But moving on slightly from morning walks now, the space I’ve found myself frequenting when I feel like I need a break from the routines of everyday life (or to simply clear my head) isn’t the park. It’s the basement level of Punggol Plaza. That a wet market even exists here should be surprising. Punggol, after all, is qui
