SINGAPORE – A 26-year-old male motorcyclist was arrested for allegedly driving without a valid licence, after he got into an accident with a taxi on Oct 9.
The police and Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) were alerted at 7.35pm to the accident, which happened at the intersection of Hougang Avenue 8 and Hougang Avenue 6.
The male motorcyclist was arrested at the scene. He was later taken conscious to Changi General Hospital, said SCDF.

A motorcycle helmet sits on a road divider, just metres away from a black backpack. A police car and ambulance are also observed at the scene.
Investigations are ongoing.
