Sengkang lift plunges down 3 floors before shooting up, injuring elderly taxi driver

January 18, 2018

A 63-year-old taxi driver was injured on two occasions in a span of two days this week after taking a defective elevator at Block 122 Sengkang East Way. Interestingly, the defective elevator had reportedly been repaired two weeks before it began malfunctioning again, according to the taxi driver:


“This lift always gives problems. The doors always cannot close properly. Maintenance was done just 2 weeks ago and it was still working fine on Sunday. Who knows the lift problem suddenly worsened instead.”

The taxi driver, Mr Tan, first injured himself on Monday (15 Jan) around 5pm when he was about to exit the lift compartment when he tripped and fell. When he checked the lift, he noticed that the lift floor was not level with the ground and found that there was a 15cm gap between the ground and the lift floor.

Mr Tan told the Chinese daily: “Luckily I grabbed the handle in the lift in time, that’s why I wasn’t too seriously injured.”

The very next day, Mr Tan entered the elevator at the 7th floor when it suddenly plunged three floors down before halting, then shooting back up again:

“In about 1 second, the lift suddenly sped down from the 7th floor to somewhere in between the 4th and 5th floor. I totally didn’t expect this and that’s why I lost my balance and fell. Before I had time to stand up properly and steady myself, the lift suddenly shot up twice and I fell again. After a while, the lift started working normally again.”

Mr Tan reported feeling a sharp pain in his buttocks and experienced swelling in his right ankle.

The taxi driver added that he is frustrated that the elevator is malfunctioning once again especially since it underwent repairs recently.

How come this incident not reported by the main news media ? Mr Tan did you vote for the PAP ? If you did you have no right to complain . Not happy with the lift services ? Just sue the town council and the lift maintainence company for full damages.
