Singapore Police Investigate Three Traffic Officers Over Unsafe Riding Footage

The clip, which surfaced online, shows the outriders cutting across lanes and forcing sudden braking near the Traffic Police Headquarters.

Predawn Maneuvers Captured on Ubi Avenue 3 Dashcam

According to footage shared via the Facebook page SGRV ADMIN, the sequence began at approximately 3 a.m. as vehicles made turns onto the roadway from Paya Lebar Road.

Two Traffic Police officers on motorcycles executed lane changes immediately after exiting a turn, cutting directly in front of a dashcam-equipped vehicle before turning again shortly afterward. As the dashcam car neared the entrance of the Traffic Police Headquarters at 10 Ubi Avenue 3, a third outrider approached from the left.

That third officer overtook the car and veered sharply into its path. The abrupt movement forced the driver to brake suddenly, catching the vehicle’s occupants by surprise. At least two people were inside the car when the maneuver occurred, with one passenger heard asking in the recording, Why he like that? as reported by AsiaOne.

Official Response and Road Traffic Act Regulations

Public exposure of the video prompted swift acknowledgment from law enforcement authorities. The Singapore Police Force confirmed they were aware of the incident after the case gained traction online, initiating formal internal reviews into the conduct of all three riders.

Under the Road Traffic Act, operating a motor vehicle on a public road without due care and attention—or failing to maintain reasonable consideration for other road users—constitutes a legal offense. Investigators are examining whether the three outriders breached these statutory standards during their approach to headquarters.

Internal Inquiries and Next Steps for the Outriders

Authorities have not yet disclosed specific disciplinary measures or detailed findings from the ongoing review.
