SINGAPORE - Four people were sent to hospital on Tuesday (Aug 9) after an accident involving two cars, a cyclist and a pedestrian at a junction in Woodlands.

The 25-year-old male pedestrian, as well as three passengers - a man and two women aged between 50 and 75 - were all conscious when they were taken to Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, said the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF).

In response to queries by The Straits Times, the SCDF said it was alerted to the accident at the junction of Woodlands Avenue 6 and 7 at about 6.30pm.

Photos of the accident show a mangled bicycle at the scene.

One of the vehicles, which ST understands is a Strides taxi, was badly damaged and straddled a road divider, with debris scattered around it.

In response to queries by The Straits Times, Mr Yeow How Pheng, senior general manager of Strides Mobility Services, said the accident was caused after a car making a right turn collided with the taxi, causing the latter vehicle to run into a road divider.

All three passengers have since been discharged from the hospital, with the taxi driver also receiving treatment for leg injuries.

SCDF said they had no information whether the injured pedestrian had also been discharged from the hospital. Neither the SCDF nor the police were able to give information about the cyclist involved in the accident.

Mr Yeow added that Strides had reached out to the driver and passengers to render assistance.

Investigations are ongoing.
