This is the second accident within 24 hours which involved a tipper truck and a motorcycle. On early Thursday (1 December) morning, a fatal accident claimed a life of a motorcyclist who was being run over by a tipper truck took place along Woodlands Centre Road near the junction of Admiralty Road.

Road.sg also warned road users earlier about these blind spots of heavy vehicles.

“Many have the misconception that if they can see the truck, then the driver can see them. This is entirely untrue and somebody is going to get hurt,” it wrote.
