Family left ‘traumatised’ after car nearly collides with bus driving against traffic in Woodlands, Singapore News


A car driver and his family were shocked when their vehicle came face-to-face with a bus driving against traffic after allegedly making an illegal U-turn.

The near miss occurred at the junction of Woodlands Avenue 2 and Avenue 5 past 8pm on Thursday (July 30).

Sameem, 45, told AsiaOne that he was turning right into Avenue 5 when bus service 901 suddenly appeared in his lane.

Fortunately, he reacted in time by slowing down, preventing a collision.

“Had I not been alert, I believe I will not be here now,” the private-hire driver said, revealing that his three children and brother-in-law were in the car.

Dashcam footage posted by Sameem on TikTok shows that service 901 had turned into Avenue 5 instead of keeping straight on Avenue 2 to reach its next stop.

The bus then makes a U-turn and goes against the flow of traffic on Avenue 5 to turn back into Avenue 2.
