A private hire vehicle (PHV) allegedly collided with a car then mounted a kerb, before swerving past other vehicles and almost hitting them , according to a video posted to the SG Road Vigilante Facebook page on Sunday (Sep 6).

The incident happened at the junction of Bedok North Road and Chai Chee Street, and the video has since garnered more than 100,000 views and over 400 likes as at Monday evening.

In the video, a black Hyundai, which is registered under the chauffeured private hire scheme, can be seen failing to make a right turn.

It had allegedly struck a vehicle before the video began, then drove forward and and hit a kerb.

The vehicle then takes a sharp right turn just as a motorcyclist drives past it and the two nearly collide.

Thankfully, the motorcyclist managed to evade the car in time.

Crossing into oncoming traffic, the black Hyundai then nearly hits the car that recorded the incident on its dashcam before swerving to the left and back into its lane.

As the incident occurs, an individual can also be seen stepping out of his vehicle to record the incident on his phone before returning to his vehicle as the video ends.

In comments, some users claiming to be witnesses shared that they later saw the black Hyundai in a ditch down the road.

Other users wondered if the driver had been under the influence while operating their vehicle, questioning their qualifications.

"It was crazy," a user commented. "Hope everything is fine."

Responding to queries from AsiaOne, the police and Singapore Civil Defence Force said that they were alerted to an accident involving three cars at the junction of Bedok North Road and Chai Chee Street at around 1.30pm on Sunday.

A 33-year-old male car driver was taken conscious to Changi General Hospital and is assisting with ongoing police investigations.
