A motorist who witnessed a collision<\/a> involving a parked vehicle in Tampines allegedly chased down the driver responsible and made her return to the scene.<\/p>\n Stomper Sharon <\/strong>said her stationary SUV was damaged in the incident, which occurred at an open-air carpark between Blocks 881 and 883 Tampines Street 84 on May 29 at about 7.03pm.<\/p>\n Footage shared by the Stomper shows a Nissan van reversing into her parked vehicle before driving away.<\/p>\n However, a passing motorist who witnessed the incident \u2014 and was earlier seen travelling in the opposite direction \u2014 reportedly honked at the van and gave chase.<\/p>\n Sharon said the witness managed to get the driver to return to the scene before leaving a handwritten note with contact details on her SUV\u2019s windscreen.<\/p>\n PHOTO: STOMP<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n At the time, the Stomper was unaware that her vehicle had been involved in an accident.<\/p>\n \u201cBefore I knew what had happened, I saw a piece of paper on my windscreen and realised my car had been involved in an accident,\u201d she said. \u201cI tried calling the number, but nobody answered.\u201d<\/p>\n The Stomper later reviewed footage from her in-car camera with the help of a cousin and pieced together what had happened. She has since lodged a police report.<\/p>\n Sharon is grateful to the motorist who stepped forward.<\/p>\n \u201cIf not for the kind soul<\/a> who witnessed everything and chased after the van, I might never have known what happened,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Sharon added that her driver\u2019s side door was damaged and became difficult to open after the collision.<\/p>\n She also expressed frustration over what she described as a lengthy insurance claims process.<\/p>\n As of June 4, nearly a week after the incident, Sharon is still waiting for repairs to be arranged and has not been able to use her vehicle normally.<\/p>\n \u201cMy insurance company told me I can only send my car for repairs next Monday and have to claim under my own insurance and pay a $500 excess,\u201d she said. \u201cI am quite disappointed about how insurance works because I\u2019ve never gotten into an accident before.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI hope Stomp can bring awareness to the public and also assist me.\u201d<\/p>\n Stomp has contacted the police for more information.<\/p>\n Have something to say?
