SINGAPORE, Oct 12 — A 30-year-old female motorcyclist died after a collision with an SBS Transit bus on the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE) on October 9, The Straits Times reported.
According to the police and the Singapore Civil Defence Force, they were alerted to the accident on the PIE towards Changi, just before the Bedok Reservoir Road exit, at about 5pm.
The woman was taken unconscious to Changi General Hospital, where she later died.
SBS Transit spokeswoman Grace Wu said CCTV footage from the off-service bus, which was in the third lane, showed the motorcyclist falling while riding between two vehicles in adjacent lanes on the right.
“The impact caused her to be thrown into lane three, where our bus captain swerved and applied the emergency brakes in an effort to avoid her, but sadly could not,” she was quoted as saying.
Wu added that the CCTV footage has been provided to the police to assist in their investigation.
“We are deeply saddened by the passing of the motorcyclist and would like to extend our sincere condolences to her family during this very difficult time,” she reportedly said.
According to the report, a dashcam video from a passing car showed an orange scooter lying on its side in front of the bus, with two people — believed to be the bus driver and another motorist — crouching to check under the vehicle.
Police investigations are ongoing.
