Quan Yifeng and cab driver: Who is right?
Mr Tan, a 52-year-old taxi driver has accused MediaCorp artiste
Quan Yifeng of wrecking his taxi and even kicking him in the groin.
But Quan Yifeng has come back with allegations of her own that
he slammed his car door on her, and swore at her.
On Saturday, Lianhe Wanbao reported that a member of the public witnessed the taxi driver arguing with Quan Yifeng, who was accompanied by her daughter an unidentified man who looked to be in his 30s, around East Coast.
The taxi driver told Lianhe Wanbao that he picked up a male passenger on Saturday at 8.45am, who then asked him to go to Hua Xin Condominium to pick up more passengers, then head to Changi airport.
The two other passengers turned out to be Quan Yifeng and her
11-year-old daughter, who were heading to Mauritius where
Yifeng was filming. When he refused to help her with her luggage, the 36-year-old artiste lost her temper and continued to make things
difficult for him as they drove towards the airport, including
swearing at him in hokkien, shoving and hitting him.
After alighting, he said that she kicked his groin and a car door, then locked herself in the taxi for 15 minutes to thrash it.
The police has classified the case as theft because she left in another cab with his car keys, according to Lianhe Wanbao.
In a call from Mauritius, the MediaCorp artiste told Wanbao that she did not take his keys, nor thrash his taxi. She also said she was the one who called the police after their altercation, but had to leave to catch her flight.
She said she shoved him and kicked his car door because he blocked her as she was trying to get her luggage.
Quan Yifeng is now seeking legal advice, Wanbao reported.

MEDIACORP artiste Quan Yifeng has made headlines again - but for the wrong reasons.
Lianhe Wanbao reported that a 52-year-old taxi driver, identified only as Mr Tan,
has accused her of hitting him, thashing his taxi and taking his car keys.
Quan who spoke to Wanbao from Mauritius, where she is filming, has denied
his allegations and hit back by saying that he was rude, drove recklessly,
and slammed a car door on her. In Wanbao's report, Mr Tan was quoted as saying
that the star lost her temper after he did not help her load her luggage into his taxi
and asked 'what sort of service attitude is this?'. He claimed she also swore at him in
Hokkien, kicked him in the groin and locked herself in the taxi for 15 minutes,
after accusing him of braking hard on purpose and throwing her forward.
According to Wanbao, police have classified the case as theft beccause she
took off with his car keys. Quan is reported to be seeking legal advice.
