Paramedics managed to ferry him to Tan Tock Seng Hospital but he died soon after.
Two men are currently assisting the police with investigations.
According to The Straits Times (ST), the men assisting with investigations are the owner of the car involved in the accident and his acquaintance.
The car in question is a white Mercedes, noted TODAY.

A spokesperson told ST that discussions following the tragic accident are ongoing.
In the meantime, they request that the public refrains from sharing photos of the accident or speculating about it.
This is out of respect for the victim’s family.
Following the news of the unfortunate accident, an Instagram user shared a post calling for eyewitness accounts.
As a fellow cyclist, she asked anyone with useful information to share it with the Anza community.
Members of the public who do can email cyclingpresident@anza.org.sg or cyclingvp@anza.org.sg.
As the accident is still fresh, investigations will likely take time.
In the meantime, anyone with information should try their best to share it with the authorities.
Perhaps, what they can provide can help bring closure to the victim’s loved ones.
MS News extends our heartfelt condolences to the cyclist’s family. May he rest in peace.
