The bus was making a discretionary right turn as the woman walked along the pedestrian crossing. Video of part of the sequence of events is obscured by a pick-up truck and when the pedestrian next comes into view, she is seen pinned under the right rear wheel of the bus.🤢🤢🤢

The police were also informed of the incident at the same time and said the "54-year-old woman was conscious" when she was taken to hospital.🤢🤢🤢

Investigations are ongoing, police added.🤢🤢🤢

SBS Transit is also assisting the police in the probe, Ms Tan of SBS Transit said.

***Bus driver was a one-man multi-tasking a huge vehicle, looking out for bus-stops when to move off, concentrating on passengers boarding and alighting. He only has one brain and one pair of eyes for all that could be happening at one time.***
We have a traffic system where green man traffic-lights are for the pedestrians crossing at crossings and traffic turning right and watching out for three-lane traffic coming straight on the left, everything at the same time. How did one not expect that this is definitely a recipe for disaster?🤢🤢🤢; December 09, 2020 6:36 PM

To top it we have orang-bodoh drivers who are rude, impatient and drive like the roads only belong to them.; December 10, 2020 1:58 PM

'intelligent fools.' BTO was standardised across the island. Out of nowhere appeared 2

unusual projects on prime land-Dawson & Pinnacle. People paid high resale prices for limited

style. Now they are trying to blame people for high resale homes. Why don't they built all

BTO as Pinnacle or Dawson, so as the population can afford to live in limited style homes?

Comfortable homes are a necessity, not a luxury. We only live once, why can't we live in

in comfort?; December 10, 2020 4:08 PM

Some private property owners downgrading or some families which have grown in size needed a bigger space. When in urgent need and location suits, you pay?; December 11, 2020 5:25 PM

In most developed countries one pays half a million dollar for a landed spacious home and not subsidies, the developers can still earn a decent profit? Land cost for HDB must be horrendous. The land cost ends up in whose pockets? In undeveloped countries, a big house costs $100,000 and it is not subsidies. Do the math.
It depends on the accounting.; December 11, 2020 8:11 PM
