Rolls-Royce Phantom & BYD collide at Carpenter Street junction, 2 sent to hospital

A Rolls-Royce Phantom and a BYD apparently got into an accident while the latter was making a right turn on Carpenter Street on Oct. 9, 2026.

A 72-year-old female car passenger, as well as another individual, was conveyed conscious to the hospital, with two male car drivers, aged 48 and 76, assisting with investigations.

According to a Facebook post by @ROADS.sg, the accident left the front bumper of the Rolls-Royce partially detached, with its car plate number hanging off.

Pieces of debris were also observed to be scattered on the road, with the cars stationary and two men appearing to be talking about the accident with other passers-by standing nearby.

A TikTok video of the accident's aftermath, which appeared to be filmed from a bus, showed a police vehicle and an ambulance were present at the scene.
