A motorcyclist was thrown into the air from the impact of crashing into the back of a car while changing lanes along the Bukit Timah Expressway (BKE) on Feb. 22, 2024.
Footage of the accident, which was shared on the SG Road Vigilante Facebook group, was apparently from the car which the motorcycle collided with.
What happened
The video showed the motorcyclist filtering from the rightmost to the middle lane at relatively high speed.
He could be seen heading towards the leftmost lane, with his left foot outstretched, just before colliding with the back of the car.
The collision threw him off his ride.
His vehicle flipped over and landed upside down.
