Yet another driver was seen going in the wrong direction and nearly causing an accident along Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE) towards Tuas, before Clementi Avenue 2 exit Thursday (Jan 5), at around 1.26am.

No details of the car or driver are known.

The incident comes in the spotlight of other incidents that happened just yesterday and last month in Singapore.

On Wednesday (Jan 4), a driver was seen going against the flow of traffic at Gateway Drive, near Westgate mall.

Last month, there were two incidents that involved a Mercedes going against traffic.

On Dec 19, a Mercedes driver was speeding at 120km/h against the flow of traffic on the AYE and caused a trail of destruction that left one man dead and four others injured.

Four cars, one motorcycle and one bus were damaged in the horrific accident.

The 53-year-old Mercedes driver, believed to have been suffering from depression, was arrested for causing death by a rash act.

In a separate incident, another Mercedes driver was seen going against traffic at Bedok North.

Also, on Dec 30, police gave chase when a man suspected of drink driving evaded a roadblock in Serangoon.

He drove against traffic before crashing into a lamp post and a street electrical box as he attempted to speed away.
