A video showing an accident which reportedly happened today (12 Dec) at about 1109 hours along Tampines Walk has been seen on social media.
The accident was between a Honda Shuttle bearing the number plate of SLV6250Y and a motorbike which the footage of the accident was seen from.
Accident details
A closer look at the footage shows that the motorbike was travelling behind the Honda Shuttle just minding his own business when the Honda Shuttle suddenly made an abrupt right turn without signaling its intention.
To add insult to injury, the U-turn was made illegally.
It resulted in the motorbike crashing into the vehicle as there was no way the motorcyclist could avoid hitting the vehicle.
Upon impact, the footage showed that the motorbike fell onto the road.
