Speedy Biker Dies After Crashing into a Turning Car
Singapore - A motorcyclist died after he crashed into a turning car and his motorcycle was flung over a road railing to knock into two pedestrians in the process. Police said they were alerted to the accident at 5.33pm on Sunday (May 15). The location is near the MRT station. The accident involved a car, a motorcycle and two pedestrians. The motorcyclist was taken to Changi General Hospital (CGH), which was on standby to receive the seriously injured victim. The 19-year-old subsequently succumbed to his injuries. The two women hit by the motorcycle were also taken to CGH for minor injuries. In a video the biker is seen speeding past cars and cutting lanes down. He crashes into a dark grey car turning left. Photos show the mangled bike on the pedestrian pathway. It is understood that the bike flew over a road railing and hit the two pedestrians. An eyewitness told that the motorcycle "fell from the sky", and crashed into the two women, who were moaning in pain. "I broke out in cold sweat," she said. "If I were walking faster, it would have hit me too." Bystanders at the scene told that paramedics tended to the rider for about 10 minutes before he was put into the ambulance. Police investigations are ongoing. |
