SINGAPORE – A 26-year-old female pedestrian was taken conscious to hospital after she was struck by a car near Orchard Road on the morning of Aug 2.
A dashcam video posted on Facebook page Singapore Incidents shows a car travelling on the extreme right lane of Bideford Road next to Paragon shopping centre.
As the car approaches the overhead bridge connecting the shopping mall and Al-Falah mosque, a lorry on the middle lane can be seen applying its brakes, just before a woman dashes across the extreme right lane.
She was then hit by the car, shattering the vehicle’s windshield. The impact sent the woman tumbling on to the road.
The police and the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said they were alerted to the accident at about 10am on Aug 2.
A 26-year-old female pedestrian was taken to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, SCDF said.
A male car driver, 43, is assisting with investigations, police said.
This is the latest accident involving pedestrians caught in dangerous situations while crossing the road.
