A 25-year-old Singaporean man (Loh Linken) was killed in an accident on the Pan-Island Expressway on Monday.
The mishap involving his motorcycle and a truck occurred at about 4.30pm on the highway towards Changi, after the Central Expressway exit, said a police spokesman. The motorcyclist was pronounced dead by paramedics at the scene. The truck driver, a 50-year-old Malaysian, was arrested for causing death by negligent act, and police investigations are ongoing. The Straits Times understands there were no passengers in either vehicle. The accident caused a massive jam that at one point stretched all the way to Bukit Batok. Traffic began to ease only after 8.30pm.
[UPDATED]
After reviewing a video footage that was submitted, that DayumNews will not be uploading. We received an email from a reader.
"It was not the trailer's fault. In this video you can clearly see that this White SUV hit the rider as he was riding in between the trailer and the white SUV. That hit made him fell and he slided under the trailer that caused his death. It was believed to be an Austrailian lady that turn herself in after that incident. I hope his loved ones and the victim can be at ease now knowing what really happened."
