Cab driver William Kok took this video at 9.50am from the dashboard camera of his cab this morning, after a taxi burst into flames close to the entrance of the CTE tunnel at Cavenagh Road, engulfing drivers in thick black smoke.
The taxi driver escaped unharmed and the burning cab had no passenger.
The SCDF quenched the blaze within 15 mins of arrival and the CTE tunnel was closed, being eventually reopened at approximately 12.45pm, although during that time, traffic became reportedly backed up as far away as the CTE junction on Braddell Road.
