SINGAPORE: The police are investigating an incident involving three Traffic Police (TP) officers on motorcycles after a video surfaced online showing them allegedly riding without due care.
In response to queries from The Straits Times, the police said on Sunday (Sept 13) that they were aware of the incident.
“Their actions are being investigated, and appropriate action will be taken against them,” the police said.
In dashcam footage shared on the Facebook page SGRV ADMIN on Sept 11, two TP officers on motorcycles can be seen changing lanes after exiting a turn, cutting in front of the dashcam car, and turning again shortly afterwards.
A third TP outrider then approaches from the left of the dashcam car, changes lanes, overtakes the car and turns into its path, prompting the driver to brake suddenly.
