81YO Grandma Hospitalised After Hit & Run By Motorcyclist Who Allegedly Beat Red Light

On Saturday, 23 November, a Facebook user by the name of Seet TingPoh took to Facebook in the hopes of looking for witnesses in an accident that occurred on the same day.

The accident is said to have occurred at 8.56am in the morning.

81YO Grandma Hospitalised After Hit & Run By Motorcyclist Who Allegedly Beat Red Light

No one wants this to happen to their own grandmothers or loved ones. Unfortunately, it happened to Seet’s grandmother.

According to her Facebook post, her grandmother was allegedly involved in a hit and run accident with a motorcyclist.

He allegedly did not even stop to help after knocking the poor elderly grandma down.

The accident happened along the T-junction of New Upper Changi Road and Bedok South Avenue 1.

Seet provided a Google Street View screenshot of where the accident allegedly happened.

Motorcyclist Allegedly Beat Red Light & Knocked Into Her

According to Seet, the motorcyclist is understood to be a male riding a small cc (capacity engine) Class 2B motorcycle.

What’s worse is that the motorcyclist allegedly beat the red light. Seet’s grandmother does not remember the license plate number.

However, she remembered that he had stopped to look at her after knocking into her, but “sped off” immediately without making sure she was okay.

Grandmother Warded At Changi General Hospital & May Need High-Risk Operation

Seet’s grandmother is now being warded in Changi General Hospital. She may need to undergo an operation to insert a metal plate into her leg.

However, it’s considered a high-risk operation due to her old age and the condition of her lungs.

Seet is now appealing for witnesses and hopes that anyone with information will contact her at +65 8126 9805.
