A 26-year-old driver who reached speed of up to 221kmh during a group joyride that ended in a series of crashes along Stamford Road was sentenced to four months' jail.
Goh Jared-Kane pleaded guilty to one charge of dangerous driving.
He is the fifth driver in the group of six to be sentenced, and has been given a three-year driving ban.
Four of them had been dealt with in June and July and also disqualified from driving for three years.
The offence took place at about 1.30am on Oct 27, 2024, when he was driving a blue Mitsubishi Evo along the Central Expressway (CTE) towards the Ayer Rajah Expressway before continuing towards Stamford Road.
According to court documents, Goh was travelling at an estimated 125kmh to 221kmh along a stretch of the CTE where the speed limit is 90kmh.
He was also travelling at between 94kmh and 196kmh along another stretch of the CTE where the speed limit is 80kmh.
By the time he reached the junction of Stamford Road and Victoria Street, Goh was estimated to be travelling at between 89kmh and 109kmh , despite the speed limit being 50kmh.
The prosecution said Goh's dangerous driving was "sustained and deliberate", rather than a momentary lapse in judgement.
Group joyride ended in multiple collisions
Goh was one of six drivers involved in the incident. His passenger was 22-year-old Tan Hui Ping Vera.
CCTV footage showed Goh's car travelling at high speed along Stamford Road towards Fort Canning Link, with cars driven by co-accused Kong Jia Quan and Lee Jun En Gilviz following closely behind.
As Goh approached an unidentified vehicle making a right turn into Queen Street from Stamford Road, he applied brakes in an attempt to avoid a collision.
Kong's car then rear-ended Goh's car. Lee, who was trying to avoid Kong's vehicle, swerved sharply to the right, mounted the adjacent grass verge and overturned.
His manoeuvre damaged roadside vegetation, a road sign and a traffic light signal.
Two other drivers, Marcus Lau Yong Wei and Damien Chia Hwa Chuan, were also travelling at high speed behind the group.
As debris from the first collision flew across the road, Lau braked. Chia, who was behind him, then rear-ended Lau's car.
Both Goh and Tan sought treatment on the day of the accident.
Tan was diagnosed with an acute neck sprain and headache and was given three days of medical leave.
She returned to the hospital several days later complaining of anxiety and difficulty sleeping.
Other drivers jailed
The other drivers involved in the incident have been dealt with by the courts.
Lau pleaded guilty and was sentenced to four months' jail and disqualified from driving for 36 months on June 26.
Chia and Sherman Quah Kok Rong pleaded guilty on June 29 and were sentenced to four months and two weeks' jail, and two months and three weeks' jail respectively.
Lee pleaded guilty on July 13 and was sentenced to four months' jail and disqualified from driving for three years.
Kong Jia Quan's case is pending, and he has indicated that he would plead guilty.
For dangerous driving, an offender can be fined up to $5,000, jailed for up to a year, or both.

一名 26 岁的司机在与一群人驾车兜风时，车速高达 221 公里/小时，最终在斯坦福路发生一系列撞车事故，被判处四个月监禁。
Goh Jared-Kane承认犯有一项危险驾驶罪。
他是六名被判刑的司机中的第五名，被判处三年禁驾。
其中四人已于六月和七月接受处理，并被吊销驾照三年。
该违法行为发生在 2024 年 10 月 27 日凌晨 1 点 30 分左右，当时他驾驶一辆蓝色三菱 Evo 沿中央高速公路 (CTE) 向亚逸拉惹高速公路行驶，然后继续向斯坦福路行驶。
根据法庭文件，吴某在限速 90 公里/小时的中央高速公路路段上，以估计 125 公里/小时至 221 公里/小时的速度行驶。
他还以 94 公里/小时至 196 公里/小时的速度行驶在 CTE 的另一段限速 80 公里/小时的路段上。
据估计，当吴先生到达斯坦福路和维多利亚街的交叉路口时，他的车速在 89 公里/小时到 109 公里/小时之间，而该路段的限速为 50 公里/小时。
检方称，吴某的危险驾驶行为是“持续且蓄意的”，而不是一时判断失误。
一群人兜风玩乐最终演变成多起碰撞事故
吴某是这起事故中涉及的六名司机之一。他的乘客是22岁的陈慧萍（Tan Hui Ping Vera）。
监控录像显示，吴先生驾驶的汽车沿斯坦福路高速驶向福康宁路，同案被告孔嘉泉和李俊恩·吉尔维兹驾驶的汽车紧随其后。
当吴先生接近一辆从斯坦福路右转进入皇后街的不明身份车辆时，他踩下刹车试图避免碰撞。
孔的车随后追尾了吴的车。李为了避让孔的车，猛地向右打方向盘，冲上旁边的草坪，翻车了。
他的行为损坏了路边植被、路标和交通信号灯。
另外两名司机，刘永伟和谢华泉，也高速跟在车队后面。
第一次碰撞产生的碎片飞溅到路面上，刘某紧急刹车。跟在他后面的谢某随后追尾撞上了刘某的车。
事故发生当天，吴和陈都接受了治疗。
谭被诊断为急性颈部扭伤和头痛，获准休三天病假。
几天后，她再次来到医院，抱怨焦虑和睡眠困难。
其他司机被判入狱
事故中涉及的其他司机已由法院处理。
刘某认罪，于6月26日被判处四个月监禁，并被吊销驾照36个月。
6月29日，Chia和Sherman Quah Kok Rong认罪，分别被判处四个月零两周和两个月零三周的监禁。
李某于7月13日认罪，被判处四个月监禁，并被吊销驾照三年。
孔嘉泉的案件仍在审理中，他已表示将认罪。
危险驾驶者可被处以最高 5000 美元的罚款、最高一年的监禁，或两者并罚。
