A video emerged online showing a group of youths having an illegal gathering inside a party bus.

The youths were seen in a group of about 7 to 8 people, contravening the current social gathering stipulations of a maximum group size of 2.

There were loud music playing in the dimly lit vehicle with disco lights flashing inside.

There were even poles seen inside the bus, presumably for the intention of pole-dancing (although the feasibility of the said act is questionable given the low ceiling of the vehicle).

The group was seen screaming and jumping around inside the party bus as they whipped out their phones and filmed one another and the goings-on inside the vehicle.

What is a party bus?

A party bus is generally and usually a large motor vehicle (ie. a van or minibus in Singapore’s context) where guests are ferried for recreational purposes and is driven by the chauffeur.

It is as its name implies, a bus where the party is held.
