Man taken to hospital unconscious after minibus crashes, knocks over lamp post in Bukit Batok

SCDF said it took the man to National University Hospital, while another person, who was assessed for minor injuries, declined to be taken to hospital.

In video footage circulating on Facebook page Singapore Road Accidents, a grey minibus can be seen stationary after crashing into a lamp post, which has been knocked over and is blocking the road. The front right door beside the driver’s seat of the vehicle appears missing and can be seen on the road divider.

An SCDF ambulance and fire engine can also be seen at the accident site.

The accident caused a traffic delay for at least 13 buses, as seen in video footage of a line of buses waiting on the rightmost lane of the road.

In a post on Facebook, bus operator Tower Transit Singapore said that due to the accident, services 452, 453, 674, 831G, 870, 871, 872 and 992 towards Tengah were diverted. The operator added that the affected services will not stop at several bus stops.

Police investigations are ongoing.
