The family believes that he was riding on a straight road while a mini bus was making a turn nearby, either to enter the UBTS Training Centre’s heavy vehicle carpark or to make a U-turn.
The two vehicles then somehow collided between 7pm and 7.30pm outside the carpark next to Zu-Lin Temple Association.
