Footage of the accident surfaced on the SG Road Vigilante Facebook page within a few hours. The video is a compilation of two clips from different vehicles.
According to the captions, it happened on Tuesday (17 Oct), at 9.21pm, along Nicoll Highway.
In the first clip, two male voices exclaimed in shock when they saw the crash.

“Siao liao, siao liao,” one of them said, aghast, as they saw the overturned Mercedes.
Sparks appeared along the road as the metal scraped the ground, with one wheel popping out from the impact.
The red vehicle then came to a halt as smoke billowed out from it.

The second clip mainly showed the aftermath of the accident.
Despite the impact, the white Toyota looked like it did not sustain much damage. A man in a white shirt and jeans quickly got out of the driver’s seat of the car.

He was on the phone as he did so, possibly calling emergency services.
However, the red car seemingly suffered the most damage, as it sat turtled on the right-most lane a little further down. Liquid also extended from the car across the middle lane.

Five people, presumably other motorists, were milling around the wreckage. They seem to be surveying the damage after parking their motorcycles behind the Mercedes.
