Car fire at Tungku - Katok junction



A car caught fire at the Tungku traffic light junction near the Royal Brunei Police Force (RBPF) new headquarters construction site recently (18 March 2013, Monday).  The fire occurred around 7pm when the car driver spotted smoke rising from the car bonnet. Upon realizing the danger the driver quickly pulled over and switching off the engine to prevent major fire outbreak. A team of firefighters in two fire engines from Beribi Fire Station rushed to the scene and managed to extinguish the fire in few minutes time. The fire also caused minor congestion as the slip road heading to Katok had to be closed for several minutes due to the incident.
