SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): A 41-year-old cyclist who was taken to the hospital after an accident with a car in Bugis on the morning of June 19 has died.
The Straits Times first reported about the accident on June 19. The cyclist died the next day, according to the police.
The police said they were alerted to the accident at Victoria Street towards Kallang Road at 6.30am that day.
In video footage of the accident uploaded on the SG Road Vigilante Facebook page, a cyclist can be seen riding across one side of the junction. He appears to be going against a red traffic light.
As he crosses the middle of the junction, a car comes into the frame, and the ensuing collision sends him flying off his bicycle.
The traffic light for the car changes from yellow to red just before the point of impact.
The cyclist was taken unconscious to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, where he later died, said the police and the Singapore Civil Defence Force.
