Car allegedly self-skidded

In response to queries from MS News, the Singapore Police Force (SPF) said it was alerted to the accident at about 12.50pm on 3 Aug.

It took place along Still Road South, heading towards the ECP in the direction of the city.

Only one vehicle was involved — a car which was believed to have self-skidded.

1 person suffered minor injuries

SCDF, which was alerted at the same time, assessed one person for minor injuries.

 

However, that person declined to be sent to the hospital.

Additionally, the car driver, a 59-year-old man, is assisting with investigations.

Police investigations are ongoing.
