Mazda driving against traffic in Serangoon forces taxi to give way, netizens praise gracious taxi driver

A black Mazda caused a stir in Serangoon after it was caught driving against the flow of traffic and forcing a ComfortDelGro taxi to reverse down a narrow one-lane road.

The dramatic encounter, which took place along Serangoon North Avenue 1 near the junction with Avenue 2, allegedly happened on 23 May at around 10.30pm, according to a video shared by SG Road Vigilante (SGRV).

In the video, the black Mazda could be seen on the wrong side of the road, going head-to-head with a ComfortDelGro taxi, even flashing its headlights at the latter.

Another commenter claimed that taxi drivers lose income whenever their cars are sent in for repairs, even for accidents they were not at fault for.

As such, it was more prudent for the driver in this incident to give way.
