SINGAPORE - A Traffic Police (TP) officer was taken to hospital after an accident involving his motorcycle and a car on the Bukit Timah Expressway (BKE) on Wednesday morning.
A video of the aftermath of the accident, which was circulating in online chat groups, shows a TP officer sitting on the rightmost lane of the expressway, with his back leaning against a TP motorcycle.
He is seen in the video clutching his face with something white, as another TP officer stands over him.
A red stain and debris can be seen on the road near the pair, with a white Mitsubishi sedan with a damaged rear parked ahead.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it was alerted to the accident on the BKE towards the Pan-Island Expressway after the Mandai Road exit at about 7.05am.
A 36-year-old TP officer was conscious when taken to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital by SCDF.
The police said investigations are under way.
