  1. The first thing I would do when I spot a hazardous driver is to get FAR AWAY from them. My reasons for doing so are: (1) I am a defensive driver (2) I love my car However, for this Toyota Noah driver, he does the exact opposite of what I would do: What Happened? An elderly Toyota Hiace driver woke up on a fine morning and decided to be a d!ck on the road by cutting off a Toyota Noah at a junction upon the traffic light turning green. (1 count of near collision) In response, the Noah driver tapped on his brakes repeatedly and even jam-braked at one point to avoid a collision with the van. At this point, the Noah driver was probably seeing red as he began driving aggressively, including overtaking the Hiace using a right-turn-only lane. Further down the road, both vehicles drove side by side (probably exchanging hand gestures and vulgarities) when the elderly Hiace driver decided to pull his stunt AGAIN - by cutting in front of the Noah driver once again. (2 counts of near collision) The obviously furious Toyota Noah driver retaliated by overtaking the Hiace from the left and cutting in front of it. (3 Counts of near collision) ANDDDDD....the Hiace performed exactly what the Noah driver did to him - by overtaking from the left and cutting in front of the Noah driver. (4 Counts of near collision) At last, both drivers' shenanigans ended when they stopped at a red light. However, the Toyota Noah driver alighted from his vehicle, walked brazenly towards the driver's side window of the Hiace, and gave it one good smack, jolting the elderly driver. The Noah driver made a rude hand gesture towards the elderly driver before returning to his MPV. Too old to drive? Or is he simply an elderly d-bag? Whatever it is, this elderly driver should have his driver's license revoked for two simple reasons: (1) Assuming his actions were unintentional...it suggests that he is unfit to drive due to his age (Eg. Poor eyesight, hand-eye coordination, or a lapse in judgement). (2) Assuming his actions were intentional...nuff said. Netizens' Comments The comment we needed👆 This is what happens when you are old, but stubborn af and insist on driving. IMO, he's lucky to walk away with only a smack on his window and a rude hand gesture. ========= Be the first to get the latest road/ COE news, and get first dibs on exclusive promos and giveaways in our Telegram SGCM Community.

  2. No one likes to pay for Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) charges, and sometimes it's funny to see how a simple system that helps regulate traffic flow has the potential to cause so much frustration for people like this Hiace driver. Watch the video here: This incident occurred at ERP 42 on the slip road from the Pan Island Expressway (PIE) to the Central Expressway (CTE). What happened? As the cam car approaches the slip road towards an ERP gantry, a Toyota Hiace can be seen hitting his brakes abruptly before coming to a halt just before the gantry. This dangerous action from the Hiace driver caused the cam car to react with an emergency brake as well. Shortly after, the Hiace driver turns on his hazard light. The cam car proceeds to overtake the Hiace and carry on with his journey, only for the Hiace driver to drive off. Possibilities At first glance, it seems as though the Hiace driver was attempting to avoid ERP payment by waiting for the ERP timer to end. However, a closer look at the ERP timing disregards the initial intent of the Hiace driver's action. Instead, it is highly likely that the Hiace driver either forgot to insert his stored-value card, or he was swapping an insufficient stored-value card with one that has sufficient value into his IU. Nevertheless, actions like this should not be condoned. Just pay the $10 fine or "administrative fee" and take it as a lesson learnt.

  3. A round of applause for this true motorcyclist vigilante. We need more of such road users in Singapore to bring bad drivers to justice. In a recent SGRV Facebook video post, a cyclist can be seen cycling along Bukit Timah Road sometime at night when out of nowhere, a white Toyota Hiace van knocks the cyclist down. Seeing this, the motorcyclist kicked his bike into action and chased the van down to block its path. After which, he even called in the Police. According to the screenshot of the Police report in the video, the van driver claimed that he noticed that he had hit something but 'did not saw anything'. Seeing how the van driver failed his breathalyser test that was conducted after the incident, its no wonder he didn't see anything. He was arrested on the spot by the Police. Here's the full video. Netizens singing praises for the motorcyclist (well most of them).
  4. Is this another case of drivers having ego issues? Or was the driver of the Toyota Hiace simply not paying attention? Posted on SG Road Vigilante's Facebook page is this video of two drivers exiting into the KPE via a merging lane. We have no idea why would either driver would allow such a silly accident to happen to themselves. In our reckoning, the accident probably happened at less than 20km/h with the Hiace mini van slowing going into the rear of the Hyundai Elantra as the lane merges into a single one. Is the trouble of needing to waste time and money to get both vehicles repaired worth it? We think not. Giving way to the other vehicle and/or paying attention on the road is a way smarter option in our opinion...
  5. Now this can be a scary sight for those living close to the incident. A Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid taxi has apparently caught fire caught fire in an open air carpark at Block 201 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 3 on 18 September. As reported by Stomp, flames and smoke can be seen engulfing a black car (likely a Seat SUV) and nearly catching a Toyota Hiace van that narrowly managed to escape. The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) were alerted to the fire at 10.55pm and they managed to "extinguish the fire using one water jet and three compressed air foam backpacks," said an SCDF spokesman. The cause of fire is under investigation and no injuries have been reported.
  6. A van has been injured in this accident due to a cyclist's silly carelessness. Jokes aside, this is quite an unfortunate incident whereby a cyclist smashed into the back of a Toyota Hiace van which was stationary along one of Old Airport Road's traffic junction. The accident happened in the wee hours of the morning, with the cyclist apparently beating a red light at the previous junction as traffic was light. With the need to go as fast possible, he likely chose keep his gaze low on the road to be as aerodynamic as possible without realising that the van that he was about to crash into had actually stopped at the upcoming traffic junction. Thankfully, the cyclist survived but he sure looked quite messed up. We hope he recovers well! P.S. SG Road Vigilante's video thumbnail might be slightly disturbing for some. Viewer discretion advised!
  7. The last few days have been relatively peaceful for our roads until this particular accident that was post by SG Road Vigilante caught our attention. With the accident happening a couple of weeks ago (17 July), this is not the latest news but it is one of the most recent videos that surfaced online. What made us sit up and take notice is how the Toyota Hiace driver lost control of his van. To zoom past the camera car on the left at that speed must have meant that the Hiace driver lost it way before the Steven Road exit on PIE towards Jurong. He then went across 3 lanes at approximately 80km/h before smashing into the center barriers and coming to a stop in the middle of the highway. What do you guys think happened? Let us know in the comment box below!
  8. Hi. Need advice from bros here. Intending to get a hiace for my work. However as need to fetch children, so I am thinking of getting a PC plate hiace, than maybe remove 2 or 3 rows of seat behind so than I can use the back to carry goods. Will this violate any ruling and will i get into trouble during the yearly inspection?

  14. I gotta relate an incident which happened today to me on the TPE all the way to the CTE. Quite funny in certain ways, quite naughty of me in others .... but I found it amusing nonetheless. I was at a T-Junction in Tampines heading home for a nap at 2:00 pm. Just secured a contract from a school in Tampines so here I was heading into the TPE. Waiting to turn right on the road heading towards the entrance of the TPE when I saw this TOYOTA HIACE van come up behind me .... did I care , of course not. Right turn light came on and I went off at my normal speed. This Hiace van was revving behind me like SIAO .... tailgated me for about 100m before overtaking on the right and cut back in front of me .... yes I was on the left lane of a 2 lane road. I was going HUH ?? TRD Toyota HIACE van siah !! This must be a scene from 2FAST 2FURIOUS (PART 3 HIACE VAN) So, it was gonna be a long way back to AMK , and the CD music was LOVELY - BRING ME TO LIFE (EVANESCENCE). Certainly pumped me up .... so I decided to be naughty and just play with this 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS Hiace Van. On the entry of TPE , I just stayed behind him (punkass Malay driver) ... before anyone goes crying RACIAL PREJUDICE ... I am MALAY too lah. Once the highway opened up, I went down to 3rd and ZOOM ZOOM .... overtook him and cut back in front of him. He was in Lane 2. Now I never had anything bad intentions ... just trying to fill some boring drive back with someone who is game enough in a TRD-decorated Toyota HIACE. Wah !! He not happy .... he revved up and got to my backside (speed on my speedo 95 km/h) .... just what I was waiting for. As soon as he was close .... I revved up and sped away. As soon as I was about 150 meters away, I SLOWED down and waited for him. Traffic was quite bare. I could see him speeding up, his eyes intent on my TarzanBoy's backside. And again as soon as he got close , I sped off .... 150 meters (approx. I SLOWED again and waited for him. All this while, I was smiling and laughing to myself. This bugger must be driving his company van ... does he not know what he is up against ?? Did her ever think that he could outpace my TarzanBoy 323 ?? Again and again I played him over .... as soon as he got close .... I would just pull away. The look on his face via my rearview - . Just to add insult (naughty me) .... I wound down my windows as soon as we cleared some construction work nearing Punggol. And when he pulled close, I pulled away ... I stuck my hand out and gestured "FASTER FASTER FASTER". I know I sound like a BULLY but somebody gotta teach this kid a lesson .... his van aint no match for any car, so drive sensibly like you ARE indeed driving a VAN. No point trying to play with TARZANBOY lah or I will whip your punkass TRD-stickered VAN !! Wah he lagi bweh song .... as I see a middle finger come up from him from my rearview. I was laughing my balls off .... again I gestured FASTER FASTER !! All this was happening at 95 - 105 kph ONLY. Then I decided to be naughtier .... I saw a Mitsubishi Grandis hogging the right hand lane. I slowed down to 80 (hey I am in the middle lane u know) and the VAN came charging up. He then sverved to the right and tried a Montoya-style demon overtaking on LANE 1. A Toyota Hiace Van on LANE 1 .... can you imagine that . I looked inside , was given a middle finger ... I SMILED back and .... revved up and snugly held my speed beside the Grandis. Now he was stuck .... he had a Grandis in front of him and me beside him .... STUCK in Lane 1. I held my speed beside the Grandis letting the Grandis be at least half a body in front of me .... at 95 kph. He was totally stuck with much faster cars coming up behind and honking him Then I looked at him and gestured -> "YOUR VAN NOT FAST ENOUGH" all in hand language. "NOW LOOK AT MY CAR" - gave a cheeky laugh and then I just sped off into the distance. Was it over ... no I waited for him .. as I slowed down in the left lane behind a lorry. As he came up to the middle lane (took him ages) and overtook me , I looked in .... and he didnt even want to look at me ..... I let him pass , came up behind him , overtook on the right and cut back to the middle lane in front of him, waved him GOODBYE as I exited the TPE into the CTE. He didnt even want to look at me .... Boy that was fun ..... certainly filled up the long boring drive back. I know you may say I am a bully .... maybe I am just 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS .... only with a TRD HIACE Van of course. Sorry to other HIACE owners who may feel insulted by my comments. My apologies
