PETALING JAYA: A Go-Jek driver was accused by his passenger of cheating and "kidnapping" her while travelling through morning rush hour in Singapore.
The driver, Kamaruzzaman Abdul Latiff, posted a seven-minute recording of the incident on Go-Jek Singapore Community Facebook group on Thursday (Jan 31), noting that he had thought about the incident a few days ago, and decided to share the video.
It is unclear when the incident happened, but according to the post, he was driving the passenger from Bishan to Coleman Street at around 7.10am.
In the video, which was taken using a video camera from inside the car, the passenger accuses the driver of "cheating" her by taking routes that pass through the country's electronic toll system (ERP).
However, when the driver asked her to provide an alternative route without the ERP, she failed to do so.
The driver then said the best solution was to head towards the nearest police station in Toa Payoh to settle the matter.
"You should take bus, it is cheaper - not even five dollars you can reach there (sic)," the driver told the passenger.
The video also showed the female passenger trying to record the driver with a smartphone, and later got someone on the phone to talk to the driver.
The driver then informed the person on the phone that they are going to the police station.
The last two minutes of the video showed the duo talking to a person, believed to be a police officer, outside the car, and the individual had instructed them to go to the nearest neighbourhood police centre.
The passenger then tried to exit the car, but could not, as the door was locked.
