hit-and-run accident on the AYE<\/p>\n<p><\/a> on <!-- -->Dec 29, 2025,<!-- --> is appealing for eyewitnesses and video footage to help police investigations.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Mr Piara Singh was a <!-- -->semi-retired heavy transport operator and father of two, said his <!-- -->son<!-- --> Roheed Raj Singh, 32<!-- -->.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">The victim\u2019s colleague told the family that Mr Piara Singh was on his way home to Bukit Batok after picking up medicine from the National University Hospital when he met with the fatal accident, his son added. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">The accident involving two prime movers happened near the Clementi Avenue 2 exit, in the direction towards Tuas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Mr Piara Singh\u2019s daughter <!-- -->Reesha Kaur, 28,<!-- --> said: \u201cWe hope that drivers travelling in that area between <!-- -->5.30pm and 5.45pm<!-- --> who might have dashcam footage will come forward.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">She added that her family is worried that if footage of the accident is not retrieved soon, it will be recorded over or deleted \u2013 which is how dashcam cameras usually operate.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">One of the two prime movers involved in the accident is believed to be in Malaysia now, she added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Mr Roheed Singh said he first learnt about the accident when his cousins sent him video footage of the crash being circulated on messaging platform WhatsApp. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">When he watched it, he noticed that the motorcycle in the crash sported red livery and gold rims, just like his father\u2019s did.    <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">He said: \u201cI was in a state of shock, I was hoping it wasn\u2019t him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">The siblings and their mother rushed back to see if their father had made it home, and called out for him, but he was not there, said Mr Roheed Singh.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">It was only later when a police officer got in touch with them that they found out that their father was in a fatal accident. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Ms Kaur said her father was excited about her upcoming wedding, and was helping her with preparations. \u201cHe was supposed to walk me down the aisle,\u201d she said.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">\u201cOur father was a loving, humorous man who brought joy to those around him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Mr Piara Singh rode a motorcycle for more than 40 years.    <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">His daughter said: \u201cHe was a very selfless man who cared a lot about others&#8230; He was known as the life of the party.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">The family has put out an appeal for dashcam footage on social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook and TikTok.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">Ms Kaur said: \u201cAt this point, investigations are ongoing, and the police have indicated that there is insufficient conclusive evidence to establish exactly how the accident occurred.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">\u201cThey have identified the vehicles involved, but added that additional footage, particularly from vehicles coming from behind, would be helpful in clarifying the sequence of events.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-body-baseline-regular text-primary\" data-testid=\"article-paragraph-annotation-test-id\">She added that the family would be grateful if anyone came forward with information or video footage of the accident.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div
