When the group went for a spin, Chia and Ng decided to race each other on a four-lane stretch of the CTE between Yio Chu Kang Road and Braddell Road towards the Ayer Rajah Expressway at about 12.50am.
They chased each other at high speeds, cutting across lanes as the CTE broadened to five lanes and narrowed back to four. They overtook almost 10 other vehicles in the process. A Traffic Police officer, Staff Sergeant David Yap, recorded their speeds with a laser gun, with Ng found to be driving at 184kmh and Chia at 178kmh.
Staff Sgt Yap managed to stop Chia's car before the CTE exit to Balestier Road and Chia admitted to his offence, DPP Chong said. TP officers spotted Ng's car at around 3am at East Coast Park, and he was arrested at home after further investigations.DPP Chong said Ng and Chia knew they were driving at fast speeds substantially in excess of the speed limit.For rash driving on a public way, they could have been jailed for up to a year, fined up to $5,000 or both.
