On Thursday (27 Aug), a BMW driver’s attempt to cut the queue along Pan Island Expressway (PIE) ended with the car sideswiping a van in an adjacent lane.

BMW cuts queue amid heavy traffic

In a video posted by SG Road Vigilante on Facebook, a black BMW is seen driving in the leftmost lane of the PIE, towards the Upper Thomson Rd exit.

Heavy traffic meant that vehicles were moving at a slow pace.

Nearing the exit of the expressway, the BMW turns on its right signal to indicate a lane change.

Continues to cut despite heavy traffic, collides with van

The BMW appears keen to avoid the exit and forces itself into the queue.

A white van in the right lane appears to continue driving despite the BMW approaching it.

As a result, the BMW sideswipes into the white van and collides with it.

The impact led to debris falling onto the road.

After the collision, the BMW stopped in front of the van. Then, the BMW driver exits the vehicle to confront the van driver.
