Singapore-registered Audi smashes into JB houses, damages walls and pillar, Singapore News

Other pictures show the wrecked car on the road, before being towed away.

One of the affected homeowners told Shin Min Daily News on Dec 18 she had heard a ‘thunderclap’ at the time of the crash. When she got up to check, she found that part of her awning had broken off.

According to the woman, the Audi had “flown” over the front gate of a house and slammed into the walls separating two houses, causing damage to a pillar and the awnings of several homes.

She added that the male driver appeared to have broken the car window to escape. He was reportedly bleeding from his leg but could still walk unassisted and did not appear to have been majorly hurt.

District police chief Raub said the driver sustained minor injuries and was treated in hospital. The Singaporean tested negative for alcohol.

Raub also stated that the driver has been issued a traffic summon for neglecting to exercise due control over the movements of the vehicle. Investigations are ongoing.
