Speed Demon Squad Faces The Bench in Singapore
Picture this: it’s 2 AM, the Central Expressway (CE) is buzzing with about 16 midnight marauders, each one zipping past the 90 km/h limit like they’re trying to break the speed of light. With speeds ranging from a modest 137 to a blistering 155 km/h, they were basically turning the road into a rushed roller‑coaster. The police finally put a stop to this daredevil traffic circus.
Meet the “Speedsters” (or, as we like to call them, the “Fast & Furious” crew)
- Sean Choong Zhi Hong – 38
- Kenneth Fu Yongli – 32
- Louis Lee Ren Jun – 26
- Oh Jia Fu – 27
- Lincoln Peh Wei Qiang – 26
- Lim Yu Shun – 28
- Brian Anthony Yap – 25
- Ian Khoo Ye Siang – 27
- Daryl Ang Qi Hao – 27
It’s a repeat offender party
Choong, Fu and Lee are not new kids on the block. They’ve all been caught speeding before, meaning if the court finds them guilty now, they could be hit with a harsher punishment—think: higher fines, longer jail time.
Police 2‑Step Deduction:
- Step one: CCTV and traffic cameras spot the speeders.
- Step two: The Traffic Police swoop in, identify the drivers, and handcuff 16 men on March 9. That’s when the long list of crime‑spending came into play.
“They’re putting everyone’s lives at risk by flirting with danger on the highway,” the police announced. “We’ll keep stepping up our enforcement on motorists who decide their cars are a race track.”
What could happen if the verdict’s “Yes”?
Potential penalties range between a $5,000 fine and up to a year behind bars. If any of these troublemakers have been caught before, that maximum double up—just one cue for the judiciary to say, “Double trouble.”
And for a quick side note, a fatal crash a few weeks ago—where a driver was clocking 148 km/h—just reminds us that the live wires of too-fast driving aren’t just legal headaches; they’re heart‑stopping realities.
So buckle up, folks, because in Singapore, the road is not a playground, and those who think otherwise will soon find themselves in the courtroom. Happy driving—stay safe and keep your speed within the limit!
