Haunted Roads in Singapore

[Ultramega]

My infantry unit used it as a concentration area last time. Those in infantry battalions will understand what I mean by that. We call that area "Lentor" because it's near Lentor Avenue. Yah... it's lots of trees in there... but under the foliage, surprisingly there are lots of space for vehicle maneuvre. That makes it a good choice for concentration. Eh... better not say too much in case this is "classified"

 

But it's not so scary in there during the day. At night it's dark because no street lamps and trees everywhere.

 

i used to train there too. there was once i chose the my campsite right next to a durian tree. while my team was doing our usual work, "toom toom" 2 durians dropped and kind of rolled towards us. haha we were damn happy. threw all our work aside and started eating durians... now after reading this thread i wonder why the durians rolled TOWARDS us.

my gf's friend was involved in an accident along PIE (Toh Guan exit) during lunar 7th mth

 

he was driving at late nite when he saw this white bus driving nearer to him that cause his car skid suddenly and banged into the divider or something..when he got out of his car...there's no sight of the white bus

 

I used to stay at toh guan for 9 years, so far, din encounter anything there.

[Hicksau]

I find Upp Thomson Rd more eerie, the stretch between YCK to around Mandai....more trees

 

This one I can testify. Personally witness something there before. Now I try to avoid that road if I can.

[Ultramega]

no, i was n flat ground. i always look for flat ground for campsite. can sleep better.

I actually find that stretch of Upper Thomson Road rather nice.

 

Especially on a misty night/morning with no cars...... with the trees from both sides of the road forming a canopy to shelter the entire road.... somewhat like a tunnel..... it makes the stretch feel "enchanted".

 

Wifey felt eerie about it initially.... but after I explained the beauty of it.... she too appreciates it now.

 

As for the "dirty" things, not that I know of for this stretch. But the old upper thomson road running inside the forested area, my wife has encountered something at the end of the road leading to the reservoir.

I used to work at TechPoint and use that junction almost everyday last time.

 

Got many accidents before.

 

Many cyclist got killed during my 2 year there.

Better yet...no durian tree but durian drop

I like that stretch of road, mainly because of the trees shading the whole road. Best effect is Sun morning around 7 - 8am with few cars, HU off, aircon off and windows down. Can enjoy the fresh smell of the trees.

 

Bad thing is: wide and straight road, few cars, speed limit 70km/hr and sometimes TP around. Drive faster also must take note.

hullo, at least it is real durians.

 

ever heard of the case where pple saw durians dropped fm the tree, rolling towards them but when they picked it up, it is not durian but head ..

 

yes, this happened in spore & this incident happened along BKE, near the 2 big goggles

[Dwoon]

Yah... speed limit is only 70km/h. But when I'm taking in the scenery, I don't go fast. Usually only about 50km/h.

 

The time I go fast along that stretch is when there is traffic. The lanes are rather narrow at certain sections, so I'll go faster to be ahead and avoid having to drive so close to the vehicles on the next lane.

was driving along PIE when 2 BIG TYRES bouncing & rolling across the road...all cars slow down to siam ..wanted to take hp out to snap snap but tyre bounce too fast! And a taxi beside me jam brake but too bad the big tyre hit his car!

[Chickenfarm]

Talking abt. tyres and army...I've ever seen a landrover stop at a traffic junction when one of its front tyre suddenly came off. The funny part is when the SAF driver alight from the vehicle to run after the rolling tyre

[Linus]

haunted by big tyres ?

[Spikedoll]

haha.I was laughing and still duno how come these big tyres can roll across highway..maybe dropped from truck carrying tyres

[Spikedoll]

maybe that road haunted by big tyres

[Porker]

Bump this old thread up.

 

Not sure if the road is haunted but I just went for a solo drive at Old Choa Chu Kang Rd. This road leads to entrance of Poyan Range and is flanked by Choa Chu Kang Chinese Cemetery and the Muslim Cemetery.

 

I didn't catch 'anyone' along the way but its farking creepy looking into the chinese cemetery while driving along. And it was raining and at about 11+pm... Go and try it if you're curious enough
