Assistance for Singapore Drivers Who Have an Accident with a Malaysian Government Vehicle | MyMechanic
Collisions are stressful—collisions involving a government vehicle add extra pressure, rules, and documentation. MyMechanic helps Singapore‑registered cars across Malaysia with on‑scene safety, calm guidance, and coordinated recovery, so the situation remains controlled while paperwork and procedures are handled properly.
First priorities at the scene
Safety and visibility: Move to a safe shoulder if instructed and possible; hazards on, triangle placed only if it is safe to do so.
Stay respectful and calm: Follow instructions from officers on scene; do not argue or speculate on fault.
Preserve evidence: Photograph damage, plates, the road layout, and visible identifiers on the other vehicle; note time, location markers, and witness contacts.
What to document
Vehicle identifiers: Number plates, service markings on the government vehicle, and any badge or unit info visible.
Scene context: Lane direction, junction signs, traffic lights, and weather conditions; take wide and close shots.
Driver and passengers: Names and contact details where appropriately exchanged and permitted; keep notes factual and time‑stamped.
How MyMechanic helps
Safety triage: Quick checks for leaks, tyre/suspension damage, and electrical issues to avoid secondary incidents.
Practical roadside fixes: Stabilize where possible (tyre swap, jump‑start, minor electrical checks) to move safely if permitted.
Towing coordination: Arrange an appropriate flatbed or recovery when driving is unsafe or relocation is required; manage handovers professionally.
Clear communication: ETAs, simple next steps, and a checklist to keep decisions calm and compliant.
Working professionally around government vehicles
Respect the lane: Do not block official operations; only approach when directed and safe.
Keep records tidy: Separate personal notes from official statements; store photos and timestamps in one folder for clarity.
Follow directions: If asked to remain in a designated area or to move, comply promptly and safely.
After the scene
Health first: Check for delayed symptoms and seek medical attention if needed.
Secure the vehicle: If towed, ensure belongings are removed and photos are taken before handover.
Organize files: Police reference numbers, incident notes, photos, tow details, and workshop references in one place.
Next steps: Plan inspection, repair logistics, and any necessary statements or follow‑ups without delay.
