A Singapore-registered car was caught on video displaying a "F*ck Chinese" message on its rear.

The message was repeatedly shown on the LCD lighting display at the rear of the multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), as seen in a SG Road Vigilante Facebook post

Message kept flashing

The video's caption stated that the incident occurred on Nov. 20, 2025 in Woodlands.

The Honda Stepwagon Spada was travelling towards the Woodlands Checkpoint.

Throughout the video, the message was repeatedly displayed at the back of the car.

A commenter on the post claimed that it was his car and the device was remotely accessed as it was not password-protected.

He also said he was under investigation.
