A 16-year-old girl in school uniform was hit by a car and flung across the road upon impact in Ubi Road, Singapore on Monday, 16 April
Two footages of the incident were taken from the dash cams of vehicles that were stationary at a bus stop.
The videos have since gone viral on social media. At the time of writing, the original video and the reposted videos have garnered over 200,000 views with more than 2,000 shares.
The girl appeared to be looking left for cars before she tried to dash across the road. However, she was hit by an oncoming car from the right instead.
The girl was thrown about a car-length across the road and appeared to be conscious in an alternate angle after the accident.
Two passers-by who stopped to check on her carried the girl to the pavement and laid her down on the patch of grass.
Lindy Sim, the video provider said that the red Suzuki Swift that hit the girl did not flee the scene but stopped in front of the taxi, to presumably assist the student.
A police spokesman confirmed that they were alerted of the accident which happened along Ubi Road 1 towards Airport Road and said that investigations are ongoing
"The pedestrian, a 16-year-old girl, was conscious when conveyed to Changi General Hospital," the police spokesman said, as reported by STOMP.
