SINGAPORE: A 21-year-old man who performed a motorcycle stunt along the East Coast Parkway (ECP) was sentenced to 15 months' probation on Wednesday (Oct 7).

Mohamed Asfa Mohamed Azli, a Singaporean, had stretched out his body and lay flat in a prone position on the bike, in what court documents called a "Superman stunt" that was dangerous to other road users.

His actions came to light when a traffic police officer found footage of the stunt which Asfa had recorded on his GoPro camera.

Asfa had pleaded guilty on Apr 17 to one charge of reckless driving. Another charge for not wearing a helmet while riding a motorcycle was taken into consideration.

As part of his probation terms, he has to remain indoors from 10pm until 6am, and will have to perform 40 hours of community service. He is also barred from obtaining any driving licence or driving any vehicle during his probation period.

His parents have also been required to put up a S$5,000 (US$3,909) bond to ensure Asfa's good behaviour during his probation term.

According to court documents, Asfa was riding his motorcycle with several friends from Seah Im car park in the Keppel area to a car park at East Coast Park on Aug 31, 2025 at around midnight.

He had fixed a GoPro 360 camera on the handlebar of his motorcycle, and began recording while on the ECP.

On the ECP, he performed the "Superman" stunt twice by lying prone on the seat with his body and legs straightened, parallel to the road. The video showed he had ridden in this position for at least 16 seconds and overtaken two vehicles while performing the stunt.

Court documents stated that while Asfa was performing the stunt, he could not have engaged the rear brake or engine brake of the motorcycle as his feet were not on the rear brake pedal or gear shifter.

In doing so, he had also raised the centre of gravity of himself and the motorcycle, making it more likely he would lose his balance, the prosecution added.

While at the East Coast Park car park, several traffic police arrived as part of their patrol routine. In a panic, Asfa fled the scene, leaving his camera on the motorcycle.

His actions came to light when a traffic police officer reviewed the footage from the unattended camera as part of investigations into the gathering.

After Asfa's guilty plea, the court called for a report to see if Asfa was suited for probation.

While the initial report found him unsuitable for probation due to several factors like his unwillingness to change, later reports found that he has exhibited positive changes in his behaviour.

A reformative training suitability report had found that Asfa's family provided a supportive environment for him, and that he had ceased contact with the peers associated with his offence.

Reformative training is a harsher type of penalty involving a regimented rehabilitation programme for youth offenders.

Given his improved behaviour, Deputy Public Prosecutor Johan Tay sought 15 months' supervised probation for Asfa, as well as a prohibition on him driving during the probation period, and a requirement for him to serve 40 hours of community service.

Mr Tay also asked for Asfa's parents to put up a good behaviour bond.

For reckless or dangerous driving, Asfa could have been jailed for up to a year, fined up to S$5,000 or both.

警方在摩托车手自己的 GoPro 相机中发现的视频显示，他俯卧在摩托车上，双脚离开后部控制装置至少 16 秒。

新加坡：一名 21 岁男子在东海岸公园大道 (ECP) 上表演摩托车特技，于周三（10 月 7 日）被判处 15 个月缓刑。

新加坡人穆罕默德·阿斯法·穆罕默德·阿兹利伸展身体，俯卧在自行车上，法庭文件称这种“超人特技”对其他道路使用者构成危险。

他的行为之所以曝光，是因为一名交警发现了阿斯法用 GoPro 相机拍摄的特技表演视频。

阿斯法于4月17日承认一项鲁莽驾驶罪名。另一项骑摩托车未戴头盔的指控被纳入考虑范围。

作为缓刑条件之一，他必须晚上10点至早上6点待在室内，并完成40小时的社区服务。此外，在缓刑期间，他也被禁止取得任何驾驶执照或驾驶任何车辆。

他的父母也被要求缴纳 5000 新元（3909 美元）的保证金，以确保 Asfa 在缓刑期间表现良好。

根据法庭文件，2025 年 8 月 31 日午夜前后，阿斯法骑着摩托车，载着几个朋友从吉宝地区的 Seah Im 停车场前往东海岸公园的停车场。

他在摩托车的车把上安装了一台 GoPro 360 相机，并在 ECP 上开始录像。

在东海岸公园大道（ECP）上，他两次表演了“超人”特技：俯卧在座椅上，身体和双腿伸直，与道路平行。视频显示，他以这种姿势骑行了至少16秒，并在表演特技期间超越了两辆车。

法庭文件显示，阿斯法在表演特技时，不可能踩下摩托车的后刹车或发动机刹车，因为他的脚没有放在后刹车踏板或变速杆上。

检方补充说，这样做还会提高他自身和摩托车的重心，使他更容易失去平衡。

在东海岸公园停车场，几名交警按例巡逻前来。阿斯法惊慌失措地逃离现场，把相机留在了摩托车上。

他的行为是在一名交警查看无人看管的摄像头拍摄的录像时被发现的，当时这名交警正在调查这起聚集事件。

阿斯法认罪后，法院要求提交一份报告，以确定阿斯法是否适合缓刑。

虽然最初的报告认为他由于不愿改变等几个因素不适合缓刑，但后来的报告发现他的行为已经出现了积极的改变。

一份改造培训适宜性报告发现，阿斯法的家庭为他提供了支持性的环境，而且他已经停止与那些与他犯罪有关的同龄人接触。

改造训练是一种较为严厉的惩罚方式，包括对青少年罪犯实施严格的改造计划。

鉴于阿斯法的行为有所改善，副检察官约翰·泰要求判处他 15 个月的监管缓刑，并禁止他在缓刑期间驾驶，同时要求他进行 40 小时的社区服务。

Tay先生还要求Asfa的父母签署行为保证书。

阿斯法因鲁莽或危险驾驶，可能被判处最高一年监禁，罚款最高 5000 新元，或两者并罚。
