A video captured two cars while running side by side in the Singapore road on Saturday, May 19. As per the visuals, it looked like both the vehicles were racing with each other that people have seen in the movie "Fast and Furious."
The dashboard camera footage was posted on a Facebook page called SG Road Vigilante. A social media user, Jonathon Lam has shared the video with a caption, "Looks fun. Wonder who started."
Even though the video did not attract many views, after watching it a Facebook user, Travis Lin commented that both the cars were slow. On the other hand, another user, Shawn Jacky said that Traffic Police should be informed about this incident, as those drivers were extremely fast.
