New Year’s Day was full of twists and turns for one van driver attempting to flee from traffic police officers in Choa Chu Kang.
The chase saw the white van winding around the neighbourhood streets, making several illegal U-turns. Trailing behind are two officers on traffic police motorcycles.
In one clip, the van is seen reversing from a zebra crossing and manoeuvring into the middle lane of a road, behind a line of vehicles waiting for the green light.
The van then turns into the zebra crossing again but stops at the edge of the junction, swerving in the direction facing oncoming traffic.
Another video taken at Teck Whye Avenue shows the van driving between a police car in front, and two police motorbikes behind. It U-turns into the opposite lane, and the officers on bikes continue their pursuit.
The chase ended dramatically when the van sped through the T-junction of Choa Chu Kang Avenue 7 and Keat Hong Link, momentarily becoming airborne before hurtling up a flight of stairs leading to the Keat Hong Axis HDB project.
