Car At Bedok Carpark Catches On Fire, Extinguished By SCDF

Vehicles can catch on fire for a variety of reasons, which can be concerning for many.

Recently, a car caught on fire while parked in an open-spaced carpark in Bedok.

The incident was captured on video and posted on TikTok by a lady.

Thankfully, the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) arrived at the scene in time to put out the fire.

There were no injuries reported either.

However, since the lady only recorded the scene halfway, it is unsure as to how the fire started.

Right beside the car on fire was a black car, whose owner quickly ran towards it to drive off.

Due to the strong flames, the fire also caught the attention of several passers-by.
