Woman Borrows Touch ‘N Go Card From S’pore Driver to Cross JB Checkpoint & Didn’t Return Card

What would you do if someone at the checkpoints asked to borrow your Touch ‘N Go card?

Well, one Singaporean driver decided to be kind and lent her Touch ‘N Go card to a woman who asked to borrow it. However, it didn’t end very well.

Here’s why.

Woman Borrows Touch ‘N Go Card From Singaporean Driver at JB Checkpoint

Last week, a Facebook post showing dashcam footage of an incident at the JB checkpoints caught the attention of many Singaporeans. The dashcam footage showed a Singaporean driver lending her Touch ‘N Go card to a woman at the JB checkpoint.

However, according to the Singaporean driver, Eileen Gwee, the woman did not return the card.

So, here’s how it happened.

According to the dashcam footage, the incident occurred on Wednesday (11 December), at around 2:50 pm. Singaporean driver Eileen Gwee was headed to JB alone in her vehicle.

When Gwee reached the checkpoint counter, another female driver donning a white top allegedly went up to her and asked to borrow her Touch ‘N Go card.

Wanting to help the woman out, Gwee decided to lend her Touch ‘N Go card to the woman.

Little did Gwee know, that was the last she would see of her Touch ‘N Go card, and the RM150 value stored in the card.

Once Gwee passed the card to the woman, the woman turned around immediately and left.

Netizens pointed out that the woman also appeared to be avoiding the dashcam, choosing to stay by the side of the dashcam instead.

According to 8world, the woman was also holding a RM20 note in her hand at the time. Gwee also pointed out that while the woman was holding the RM20 note, the woman did not pass the money to Gwee.

It is unclear whether the woman had intended to pass the RM20 note to Gwee in exchange for borrowing her Touch ‘N Go card.

Woman Fails to Return Touch ‘N Go Card to Singaporean Driver; Alleges that She Was Targeted as She Was Alone

Gwee shared then she had parked her car on the side afterwards, waiting for the woman to return with the Touch ‘N Go card.

However, more than 15 minutes later, there was no sign of the woman.

Disappeared faster than you do from work at 5 pm.

Gwee believed that she was targeted by the woman as she was alone in the car. After all, if you’re alone, you can’t exactly leave your car to keep an eye on someone who borrowed your Touch ‘N Go card.

Gwee also pointed out how it couldn’t possibly be the case that the woman had forgotten to return the Touch ‘N Go card because she was kan chiong.

Gwee shared that if that truly was the case, the woman would not have taken the trouble to borrow Gwee’s Touch ‘N Go card when there were other nearer cars to borrow a Touch ‘N Go card from.

So, what’s your take on the incident? Do you think the woman had intentionally targeted the Singaporean driver, or did she genuinely forget to return the Touch ‘N Go card?
