Traffic Police outrider checking for drivers on mobile phones rear-ends car on PIE

A Traffic Police outrider was among three people injured after he rear-ended a car on PIE on Wednesday (Nov 4) morning.

The accident involved two cars and two motorcycles and happened at about 7.10am in the direction of Tuas, near the Eng Neo Avenue exit.

Dashcam footage of the accident posted on social media shows a black Toyota car on the second rightmost lane of the expressway.

A traffic cop is seen approaching the car on the rightmost lane with one hand raised slightly above the handlebar.

As he catches up with the driver, he turns his head slightly towards the vehicle, but fails to notice that the car in front had stopped and is unable to brake in time.

The rear-end crash flings the officer into the air and over his bike.

Debris is seen flying across the path of the dashcam vehicle, which had switched lanes in time to avoid the accident.

Meanwhile, the black car and a trailing motorcycle were unable to avoid the Traffic Police motorcycle.

A picture showed the the motorcycle's broken headlight housing and fairing after the accident.

In response to AsiaOne's queries, the police confirmed that two cars and two motorcycles, including a Traffic Police motorcycle, were involved in the accident.

The police and Singapore Civil Defence Force added that the 26-year-old officer, a 28-year-old female motorcyclist, and a 20-year-old car driver were taken conscious to the National University Hospital and Ng Teng Fong Hospital.

Police investigations are ongoing.
