Cyclist taken to hospital unconscious after accident with car in Bugis

A 41-year-old male cyclist was taken to hospital after an accident with a car in Bugis on the morning of June 19.

The police were alerted to the accident at Victoria Street towards Kallang Road at 6.30am.

In video footage of the accident uploaded on the SG Road Vigilante Facebook page, a cyclist can be seen riding across one side of the junction. He appears to be going against a red traffic light.

As he crosses the middle of the junction, a car comes into the frame, and the ensuing collision sends him flying off his bicycle.

The cyclist was taken unconscious to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, said the police and the Singapore Civil Defence Force.

A 44-year-old male car driver is assisting with police investigations.
