The accident apparently occurred along the KPE towards the Tampines Expressway (TPE), before the Tampines Road exit.
At 4.38pm, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) Twitter account also warned the public about an accident after the Airport Road entrance.
From the clip, eight cars and one van can be seen lined up bumper to bumper in the second lane.
Each vehicle was “kissing” another one on either or both their front and back.

It’s unclear if the individuals sent to the hospital were the OP’s family members.
While a chain collision like this one can cause damage to many vehicles, what’s important is that there were neither any serious injuries nor fatalities.
Regardless, the crash would’ve been traumatic for the people involved.
MS News wishes the injured parties a quick recovery.
