Cause of fire on car along TPE still a mystery
Tweet
STOMPer Melo saw this car that had caught fire along the TPE yesterday (Nov 17).
She said:
"I was on my way home this evening, driving along TPE before exiting at Yio Chu Kang, when I saw this car on fire.
"A fire engine had just arrived at the scene.
"I saw dark smoke rising into the sky from a distance before reaching the scene.
"I think the driver wass OK since there was no ambulance seen.
"I wonder how the vehicle caught fire."
SCDF said the fire happened at 6.05pm yesterday. It deployed one fire engine and one red rhino.
The fire was extinguished within 20 minutes, using two water jets.
SCDF said no one was hurt in the fire.
The cause of the fire is still unknown.

I passed by the site that day, it's a Mercedes-Benz Vito.. It's quite common to see Vitos burn when it's not properly maintained. Could be caused by a short-circuit or engine-overheat..
