The police are looking for the driver of a trailer who was involved in a three-vehicle accident on the Pan Island Expressway (PIE) on Wednesday (Sept 9) afternoon.<\/p>\n
The incident happened at about 3.45pm on PIE towards Changi, before the Bukit Timah exit.<\/p>\n
Dashcam footage of the incident submitted to SG Road Vigilante and posted on its Facebook page shows a motorcyclist rear-ending a black Toyota multi-purpose vehicle (MPV).<\/p>\n
The impact sends him tumbling to the ground just as the trailer passes to his left.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It is unclear if the motorcyclist was hit by the trailer, although it appears that the motorcycle may have shielded him from any direct impact.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The trailer driver is then seen driving on and does not stop to render assistance.<\/p>\n
In response to AsiaOne’s queries, the police and Singapore Civil Defence Force told AsiaOne that the 49-year-old motorcyclist was taken conscious to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, adding that he is assisting with ongoing investigations.<\/p>\n
Efforts are also underway to track down the trailer driver.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Investigations into the incident are ongoing.<\/p>\n
The offences of failing to stop after an accident and failing to lodge a report within 24 hours after an accident each carries a fine of up to $1,000, a jail term of up to three months or both.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Those found guilty of failing to render assistance to the injured could face up to 12 months’ imprisonment, a fine of up to $3,000, or both.<\/p>\n
