A Maserati owner, accused of being in a hit-and-run accident in Bedok Reservoir Road involving a police officer, told a district court yesterday he was not at the wheel of the car during the incident on Nov 17, 2017.

Lee Cheng Yan told District Judge Ng Peng Hong: “I did not touch the car that day at all.”

The 35-year-old Singaporean had been disqualified from driving all classes of vehicles from July 2017 till April last year over earlier traffic offences. But before the end of the driving ban, he bought the seven-year-old Maserati for $175,000 on Nov 9, 2017.

He claimed he never saw the car before he bought it and never drove it, not even for a test drive. The Maserati was not valuable to him as it was “an old car”, he told the court.
