Two motorcyclists taken to hospital after accident with lorry on TPE

SINGAPORE – Two motorcyclists were taken to hospital – one conscious, the other unconscious – after an accident on the TPE towards the PIE before the exit to Seletar Link on the morning of Aug 15.

Responding to queries from The Straits Times, the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) and the police said they were alerted to the accident at about 9.20am on Aug 15.

A 30-year-old male motorcyclist was taken unconscious to a hospital, and a 25-year-old male motorcyclist was taken conscious to another hospital, the authorities said.

A lorry was travelling on the wet road before it appeared to have skidded across the expressway from the left-most lane, striking the two motorcyclists, dashcam footage posted on SG Road Vigilante’s Facebook page showed.
