Female cyclist, 35, who died in Pasir Ris accident with truck planned to watch G.E.M. concert, leaves behind son, 9

A 35-year-old female cyclist who died after an accident involving a tipper truck at Pasir Ris in the late afternoon on May 23, 2026, had planned to watch a G.E.M. concert with her colleague that night.

It was set to take place at the National Stadium, Shin Min Daily News reported.

The deceased, identified as Leng (transliterated), had allegedly been dragged for five to six metres after getting knocked down, according to Shin Min.

Planned to watch concert together

Li (transliterated), Leng's female colleague, told Shin Min that the pair were heading home to freshen up after work before going for the concert.

Li added that Leng, whom she met through work about four years ago, had a cheerful personality.

As Li and Leng stayed near each other, they had been riding home on their bicycles alongside each other when the truck allegedly turned left and knocked Leng down, Shin Min reported.

The truck appeared to have been unable to brake in time, according to Li.

Li added that after the truck hit Leng, it allegedly continued straight for a distance before stopping, Shin Min reported.

Husband identified body

Following the accident, Leng's husband rushed to the scene to identify her body after receiving a call from Li.

Shin Min reported that Leng is from China and the couple have a nine-year-old son together.

The boy is currently under the care of family members in China and Leng had last met him several months earlier.

In addition, Shin Min reported that traffic could not pass through the affected lane for over five hours.

At around 9:30pm that night, the tipper truck was towed away.

Driver assisting with investigations

Police were alerted to the accident at around 4:35pm on May 23, involving a tipper truck and a bicycle at the junction of Pasir Ris Drive 4 and Pasir Ris Drive 3.

The cyclist was pronounced dead at the scene by a Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) paramedic.

A 29-year-old male tipper truck driver is assisting with investigations and police investigations are ongoing.
