Car Collision Sends MPV Flipping At Braddell Flyover
A nail-biting collision occurred on 7 Sep at the Braddell Flyover.
A private-hire car (PHV) performed a reckless turn into a highway exit, crashing into a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV).
The impact sent the MPV flipping over and spinning, while the PHV was knocked to the side.
The SCDF reported that the passengers of the MPV suffered injuries but were conscious when taken to the hospital.

His vehicle collided with an MPV that was already on the slip road.
The MPV flipped over from the sheer impact, its momentum causing it to slide back onto its side. It crashes into a street light before turning turtle once more.

The collision also sent the PHV skidding back onto the Braddell Flyover and crashing into a hedge in a divider.

According to 8world News, the Singapore Civil Defense Force (SCDF) and the police identified the MPV’s occupants as a 66-year-old male driver and a 44-year-old female passenger.
The SCDF transported the injured but conscious passengers to Tan Tock Seng Hospital.
Police investigations are currently ongoing.
