It wasn't just the police that brought him down, but also a concerted effort by other drivers on the road. A driver was caught after he attempted to ram his way through traffic to escape the police in Admiralty, as seen in a video posted to Facebook group SG Road Vigilante on Tuesday (May 28). The video begins with a man in grey going up to multiple vehicles stopped at a traffic light, instructing them not to drive off when the light turns green. In doing so, the drivers and their vehicles lock a dark-coloured car in, preventing it from taking off. According to the post by SG Road Vigilante, the trapped driver had allegedly used a fake license plate. The man then tries to confront the driver, who makes multiple attempts to reverse out of the box and drive away, nearly running the man over in the process. Unable to escape, the driver then tries to brute-force his way out of the situation, ramming his vehicle into the gap between a lorry and truck on the right. Just as he does, however, officers dash up from behind, trying to get the vehicle to stop.
