According to the photo, the grey car appeared to have crashed into the right side of the Service 300 bus as it was turning left from Choa Chu Kang Avenue 2 to Choa Chu Kang Way.

This caused the bonnet of the car to be damaged, with its hood folded up.

The Lalamove van then collided with the rear of the car, sustaining damage to its own front.

The chain collision took place in front of Block 249 Choa Chu Kang Ave 2.
