Mr Koh said: "I was shocked. He had the audacity to make a rude gesture at me and ride away without saying anything."

Mr Koh then drove to a nearby car park and reported the incident to the police.

On the advice of this friends, he posted the video of the incident taken from his car camera on SG Road Vigilante's Facebook page.

In response to the video, a man contacted Mr Koh the next day saying that a private bus he owns was allegedly hit by the same motorcycle.

From the timestamp on a video taken from the bus and later posted on the same Facebook page, Mr Koh realised the accident occurred a few minutes after his.
