The police and Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said they were alerted to the accident along Jurong Town Hall Road towards West Coast Road at around 4:50am.

The motorcyclist was taken unconscious to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital, where he subsequently died.

A helmet and a pool of blood were seen on the road.

A 55-year-old male driver, was conveyed conscious to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital.

Police investigations are ongoing.

Motorcycles make up less than 15 per cent of Singapore’s total vehicle population, but motorcyclists and their pillion riders accounted for half of all deaths in road accidents in 2023.

They were involved in more than half of all traffic accidents last year.
