WATCH: How the tipper truck tipped over on the TPE and caused a massive jam on Monday

Two days ago, motorists travelling along the Tampines Expressway (TPE) were hit by a traffic jam that lasted for a couple of hours, stretching all the way from the Seletar Expressway (SLE) entrance to just before the Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway exit. 

A tipped-over tipper truck had spilled gravel all over the TPE around 5.05pm that afternoon, blocking three whole lanes on the expressway. Watch how the monstrous vehicle fell over, as captured on dashcam by Koh Yew Hock and uploaded on the Beh Chia Lor Facebook page:

Note the fact that the heavy vehicle was travelling on the second lane instead of sticking to the slower ones on the left. Fortunately, no one was injured — but it did cause a crazy congestion that lasted beyond 8pm that day.
