In the video, a passenger is seen boarding the Lexus. 

The clip then cuts to the white Lexus zipping along the rightmost lane on a road.

The Lexus is suddenly seen swinging from side to side, before abruptly veering sharply to the left, cutting in front of a bus on the left lane. 

Mr Wong, who took the video, told The Straits Times that he was in his friend’s car when he noticed the Lexus.  

Said the 28-year-old student: "When he went past us, he floored the gas pedal and lost control and crashed into the lamp post.

"He didn't hit the bus, the bus was just a little too slow."

Mr Wong added that there were two men in the car.

In response to media queries, a police spokesman said that it was alerted to an accident involving a car at Changi Road, towards Geylang Road on Sunday (April 8), at 9.51pm.

No injuries were reported, and police investigations are ongoing.
