Volvo XC40 driver mounts kerb and performs a 5-point turn to get out of a heavy jam at Woodlands checkpoint

Most people in Singapore purchase an SUV for its spacious body rather than its utility. 

And that makes sense as it is almost impossible to put an SUV to the test in a city environment such as Singapore. 

However, a particular Volvo driver did just that. 

Watch it here:

What Happened?

A recent Channel News Asia news article reported that "Heavy traffic through Woodlands and Tuas Checkpoints expected for the rest of June: ICA".

And truth be told, that was exactly what a Volvo XC40 driver experienced.

After getting impatient with the long wait, he decided to perform a 'u-turn' (which is obviously illegal).

Leveraging his SUV's ground clearance, the Volvo driver mounted the kerb and proceeded to make a 5-point turn to get himself out of the standstill jam. 

NGL, I am pretty amazed at the Volvo driver's attitude to performing whatever he did in the video above. 

Some possible reasons for his actions are:

1. Forgetting to bring his passport
2. Need to use the toilet urgently
3. To escape the heavy congestion
4. Got fuel check + his petrol tank below the mandated 3/4 tank

What do you think made the Volvo driver perform the 'u-turn'?

At most pay the fine for his illegal u-turn lor.

  • A sole-ful tribute

    Car enthusiasts are an emotional bunch. So, I naturally develop feelings for things on wheels, be it four wheels or two. However, I was surprised to discover that I had become attached to my old pair of sneakers, whose soles are so worn that it hurts to wear them.  That is the unequivocal signal to retire them. But I must say "Thank you" before bidding them goodbye. The laceless design is convenient, saving time when you need to rush off in the morning Through thick and

    Japan is weird. I love it (Part 5)

    There are plenty of strange sports in this world. People running from bulls. People running after cheese. Power Slap.  But of course few places do weird quite like Japan. Introducing to you: Bo-taoshi.  The name means 'topple the pole', and that's exactly the name of the game. Except of course its never quite so simple.  You want teams?

    Japan is weird. I love it (Part 4)

    I recently finished watching Shōgun (yes, I'm a little bit late to the party). Released earlier this year, Shōgun has become an utter revelation - going on to win 18 Emmys at this year's Primetime and Creative Arts Emmys, making it the most awarded single season of television in history. It's also the first non-English-language series to win Outstanding Drama Series.  And it truly is outstanding, fully deserving of all the awards that it has garnered.  As you would expect, the show rev
