Female driver crashed into three cars, knocked over pedestrian
SINGAPORE - A female motorist who was speeding in a Toyota Camry knocked over another woman before crashing badly into three parked cars in a carpark.
The accident, which happened in Choa Chu Kang on a Saturday afternoon at about 12.15pm, set off the cars' alarms and shocked the residents.
A witness told Wanbao that a black Toyota suddenly charged into the carpark's entrance and went up the pedestrian's pathway before smashing into the parked cars.
The impact was so bad that the black Toyota's right wheel was ripped off.
According to a witness, a woman who happened to be crossing the road at that time was knocked over. She was thrown off by the impact of the accident and suffered brain injuries.
An Singapore Civil Defence spokesman said the injured woman was a 41-year-old Chinese. An ambulance conveyed her to the National University Hospital. On the way, she slipped into a coma.
Wanbao understands that the woman also suffered injuries to her right leg.
Mr Ke, 36, property broker, owns the car that took the most damage in the accident.
He told Wanbao that he was at home when the accident happened and immediately rushed down without thinking when he heard the loud bang.
When he saw the injured pedestrian lying unconscious on the ground, he immediately called for an ambulance.
Mr Ke went on to say that the driver of a car was a woman and that she had already apologised to him.
The driver of the Toyota also explained how the accident took place, he said.
She claimed that she was travelling on the outside lane of the two-lane road when she wanted to turn left into the carpark.
In order to do so, she sped up to overtake a bus that was travelling beside her and made the turn. However, she lost control of the car.
Mr Ke told Wanbao that his car could be under repairs for a few weeks and as such, his work may be affected since he cannot ferry potential customers to view property.
The female driver, who is believed to be 24-years-old, could not be reached for an interview. Her husband declined and said that she was still in shock.
Police said the driver is currently helping with their investigations.
