Taxi driver drives at 150km/h

A taxi driver thought he was an F1 driver when he raced from Marina Bay Sands to Paris Ris in 13 minutes flat.
STOMPer Lean feared for his wife and himself when his cab driver sped at 150km/h on the KPE.
Google Maps states the distance from Marina Bay Sands to Pasir Ris via the KPE as 21km, which should take an average of 21 minutes.
According to the receipt provided by STOMPer Lean, he was picked up by the cab at 12.06am, and reached his destination at 12.19am. The 18.5km trip took only 13 minutes.
The STOMPer recounts:
"My wife and I took a cab from MBS and arrived at Pasir Ris in a whopping 13 minutes! We had a ride of our lifetime.
"The cabby drove at almost 150km/h inside the KPE tunnel, only slowing down twice to 80km/h as we approached the speed camera.
"Why is this kind of dangerous driving allowed?"
Netizens have had varying responses to Lean's post.
Crappist1 said that if the driver drove at 150km/h, he should have reached in 8 to 10 minutes, not 13 minutes like Lean claimed.
Thejustice commented that he found it highly unbelievable that a car could travel at 150km/h in the KPE.
Silverhawk called Lean a coward for not stopping the cab driver.
