Motorcyclist switching lanes hit by car and thrown off bike on Lavender Street, Singapore News

He is seen turning to check for oncoming vehicles when he turns left and switches lane, but did not appear to do the same when he crossed to the left-most lane, where a black car was travelling.

The approaching car slams into the motorbike, and the rider briefly ends up on the bonnet before being thrown to the roadside when the car brakes.

He pulls himself to sit upright as a passer-by walks over and checks on him.

The police said that the 64-year-old male car driver is assisting with investigations.
