It is unclear where exactly the accident took place, but according to the timestamp on a video posted by Facebook user Zhi Teng, it happened on Sep 23.

The video shows how while other vehicles had started to slow down and stop for a red light at a junction, a car failed to do so and continued travelling at a high speed instead.

It then crashed into a TransCab taxi.

Photos posted by Zhi Teng show how the taxi suffered a mangled rear bumper while the other car had its front damaged.

Zhi Teng also alleged that the car was travelling at 140km/h.
