SINGAPORE: A teacher made a right turn at a traffic junction in Jurong before the right-turn signal had turned green, causing a collision with a motorcyclist who suffered brain injuries from the crash.
He wanted to turn right onto Corporation Road, towards Jurong Port Road. The lights were green at that time for traffic going along Jurong West Avenue 2 towards the Pan-Island Expressway, but the signal to turn right had not yet turned green in Sim's favour, said Deputy Public Prosecutor Stacey Anne Fernandez.
After Sim turned right, he collided into the motorcyclist, who was flung off his motorcycle and taken to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital.The impact dislodged the front bumper of Sim's car and crumpled the front of the motorcycle.
