Singapore BMW Driver Caught Stealing RON95 Fuel in Johor — Attendant Pulls Pump in Viral Video

A Singaporean-registered BMW driver was caught attempting to pump RON95 petrol at a station in Tebrau, Johor Bahru — a move that violates Malaysian fuel subsidy laws.

The incident occurred around 4 PM yesterday and was captured via dashcam, quickly going viral across social media platforms, particularly after being shared by the ROADS.sg Facebook group.


Petrol Station Attendant Steps In

The video shows the black BMW parked at a pump clearly labeled for RON95, which is subsidized fuel strictly reserved for Malaysians.

Just moments into the fueling attempt, a petrol station worker rushes in and yanks out the pump nozzle, effectively putting an end to the unauthorized fueling.

Observers noted how the worker handled the situation calmly but firmly — a reflection of how Malaysian petrol stations have had to become more vigilant due to repeat incidents of foreign drivers misusing local subsidies.


Not an Isolated Incident

Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time — and likely won’t be the last — that Singaporean drivers have tried to exploit the cheaper RON95 fuel when visiting Malaysia.

Despite clear signage and strict enforcement, such incidents continue to surface. Social media users were quick to call out the behavior and commend the attendant’s no-nonsense approach.

“No drama, just action. This is what we need,” wrote one commenter.

Many Malaysians have expressed frustration that some Singaporeans, known for abiding by their own country’s strict laws, show little regard for Malaysia’s rules the moment they cross the border.


Why It Matters

RON95 petrol is heavily subsidized by the Malaysian government to ease the burden on local citizens — a benefit that comes at a significant cost to taxpayers.

Foreign nationals, including Singaporeans, are legally prohibited from purchasing RON95 fuel in Malaysia and are required to opt for RON97, which is sold at market price.


What’s Next?

Authorities have continued to warn foreign drivers against abusing Malaysia’s fuel subsidy system, and several enforcement campaigns and public advisories have been issued in recent years.

However, as long as there are those willing to break the rules, frontline workers remain the first line of defense — and this latest incident proves just how important their vigilance is.
