Tampines hit-&-run driver found: Drove deregistered car with cloned plate while disqualified
He will be charged in court on Oct. 31.
Two individuals, a 30-year-old man and a 29-year-old woman, have been arrested in connection with a hit-and-run accident that occurred at Tampines Avenue 12 on October 29. The arrest was facilitated by the use of police cameras, CCTVs, and extensive ground enquiries, which established their identities. Preliminary investigations revealed that the man was driving a deregistered car with a cloned licence plate while under disqualification.
He faces nine charges under the Road Traffic Act and related legislation, including dangerous driving causing death, driving under disqualification as a repeat offender, failing to render assistance, and displaying a false licence plate. The motorcyclist and his pillion rider, both aged 24, tragically passed away in the accident, leaving behind a 6-year-old son.
The driver of the other car, a 25-year-old woman, was conveyed conscious to the hospital. Police have reiterated that firm action will be taken against motorists who recklessly endanger road safety.
