Submitted by Stomper Alcott


A 31-year-old motorcyclist was taken to hospital after he was involved in an accident with a prime mover along the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE) on Saturday evening (June 29).

Stomper Alcott alerted Stomp to the accident that happened just before the Jurong Town Hall Road exit.

He shared footage taken from his in-car camera that showed what happened just before the collision.

In the video, the rider is seen riding on the right-most lane.

He is seen changing lanes to the left and cuts in front of the prime mover travelling in the left-most lane.

The impact causes the prime mover's rear wheels to lift off the road before both vehicles are seen careening to the right.

In response to a Stomp query, the police said they were alerted to the accident at about 7.21pm.

The motorcyclist, a 31-year-old man, was conscious when taken to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital, a police spokesman said.

Investigations are ongoing.
