  "account": "A 29-year-old man was arrested for driving under the influence of drugs after a traffic accident on the Bukit Timah Expressway (BKE) on August 25, according to police reports. Video footage shows two men struggling at the road shoulder, with one man restraining the other and attempting to throw an object over the bridge. The driver of the Mercedes, which was allegedly crashed into by the other vehicle, claimed the intoxicated driver was shaking violently and slurred his speech after the accident. The Mercedes driver also said he restrained the intoxicated man to prevent him from fleeing. The TikTok user who posted the videos stated that an object thrown from the bridge was a Kpod, though the police have not confirmed this. A separate video shows a black Mazda swerving between lanes, causing concern among other motorists. The driver of the Mazda is said to be the same man involved in the Kpod incident. No further details were provided by the police regarding the ongoing investigation.",
