Both men had been driving against the flow of traffic.
Two men, Rayden Chong Shi An and Koh Chee Siong, have been charged with dangerous driving and driving under the influence of drugs after allegedly driving against the flow of traffic in Jurong and Choa Chu Kang, respectively. Chong, 20, was involved in a collision with a bus and a van while driving on Jurong West Street 91, while Koh, 35, drove against traffic for about 300 to 350 meters before entering a petrol kiosk in Choa Chu Kang.
Both men tested positive for etomidate in their blood. The police warned that driving under the influence of any substance that impairs one's ability to drive safely is an extremely dangerous act.
