According to SG Road Vigilante, the driver of the cam car was travelling at 80kmh as the other vehicles zoomed past him.

The video has been informally captioned "Formula 1 in KPE".

The speed limit along the KPE tunnel is 80kmh. However, there is a lower speed limit of 70kmh along specified tighter bends.

The Traffic Police is aware of the incident and investigations are ongoing.
