Caught on camera: Driver shines laser pointer at another car along PIE
A driver in Singapore was recorded using a laser pointer against another vehicle on the Pan Island Expressway. Authorities have previously warned that such actions are highly dangerous and can lead to imprisonment.
Why it matters
This incident highlights the dangers of road rage and the legal consequences of using distracting devices that can cause accidents.
The driver of a Toyota Alphard multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) was recently caught aiming a laser pointer at another car.
Dashcam footage of the incident submitted to Facebook Group SG Road Vigilante shows vehicles moving slowly along a stretch of an expressway on July 8.
As the MPV closes in on the car, its driver is seen using his laser pointer several times.
At one point, the glare was so strong that the whole video turned green.
It is unclear what triggered the MPV driver to do so.
Based on traffic information signage on the opposite side of the expressway, the incident appears to have occurred along the Pan Island Expressway.
