An SBS Transit bus crossed the central divider on Jalan Kayu in an incident that traffic authorities are treating as a potential skidding accident. The bus, carrying passengers at the time, made contact with the road divider, causing disruption to traffic in the area.
Investigators are examining the circumstances that led to the bus losing control. Preliminary findings suggest the vehicle may have skidded before striking the divider, though the exact cause remains under review.
The driver of the bus is assisting authorities with their investigation into the incident. SBS Transit, Singapore's second-largest public transport operator, has not released additional details regarding passenger injuries or vehicle damage at this stage.
The incident adds to concerns about road safety on busy thoroughfares in Singapore's northern corridors. Traffic police are continuing their enquiries and have appealed for any witnesses to come forward with information.
