SCDF paramedics arrived on the scene, and pictures show that they were primarily attending to the biker, who appeared to have been flung from the bike upon impact.

The biker had to be carried on to a stretcher, although an update from his friend assured us that he’s fine.

A video shows a GrabFood rider, perhaps the biker’s friend, at the scene with the paramedics. You can view the video here.

According to the person taking the video, the bike’s front tire might have locked, causing the accident.

Appeal for witnesses

Although the ones involved in the accident appear to be okay, there was considerable damage to the vehicles. We hope they’re covered by insurance.

If anyone happened to be at the scene or had a dashcam, do reach out to the man on Facebook.

We’re lucky that there were no fatalities, and hopefully witnesses will step forward to provide evidence.
