Five people were taken to the hospital after three-car accident in Clementi on April 11 morning, the police told Stomp.

Stomper Yeow was on a bus that was caught in the traffic jam resulting from the accident and shared a video of the cars in the crash near the Clementi MRT station at the junction of Commonwealth Avenue West and Clement Avenue 4.

"Road lanes were blocked, causing the traffic build up," said the Stomper.

"The car accident was so bad it caused a traffic tailback to Jurong East."
