We always stress the need for road safety, but accidents are inevitable due to human error. Regardless, as long as we ensure we follow road rules, we can avoid accidents as far as possible.

A bus carrying 21 people and a car collided in a Jurong Island, causing the bus to flip on its side.

The accident took place at around 7am on Sunday (6 Dec), the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said.

22 people were conscious when taken to 3 different hospitals, SCDF said.

Police investigations are ongoing.
