She lost control of her motorbike during a lesson and plunged two storeys.

 

Miss Nur Amalina Md Juffri was having her fourth lesson at the Singapore Safety Driving Centre (SSDC).

 

She was navigating a bend on the open-air circuit which is on the fifth-storey roof.

 

Ten minutes into her motorbike lesson, she accelerated instead of braking and hit a 1m high wall.

 

The impact flung her off the motorbike. She then crashed through the steel mesh between the fence and wall, and fell onto the third-floor ledge.

 

Officers from the Singapore Civil Defence Force used ropes and a stretcher to lift Miss Nur Amalina to the third storey where an ambulance was waiting.

 

A manager at the SSDC told The New Paper that the centre immediately secured and strengthened the steel mesh to prevent another accident from occurring. The centre is also considering raising the height of the wall and putting up warning signs as riders approach the bend.

 

Police investigations are ongoing. [speechless]

The low wall actually help her to survive. Imagine now they raised the height of the wall. Another similar accident, the rider got nowhere to fly! Got stumped on the wall!!!!! Poor thing.

Come on the safety fence worked.

She did not die or injured seriously!

Kudus for the safety put in place.

 

yes, she crashed through the fence. Imagine if got no fence. Or like what someone else said, if it's just a solid wall. Just an unfortunate accident. A way to improve is to put a mattress/padding on the fence machiam "airbag".

I think it's better that they don increase the height of the wall.instead they should strengthen the fence n put padding. So at least riders won't go 'smack' onto a wall.

but seriously, for mistaking throttling rather than braking is a bit FAIL already... how can she mistook anyting like when u need to accelerate u need to turn the throttle and when u need to brake, u need to depress foot brake or right hand brake??? wat is she tinking???

if u are telling me for auto car, brake and accelerator juz side by side at the foot maybe can depress wrongly... but for bike..............?

unless they are oso teaching auto motorbike now too which i dun noe.... lol

Bad publicity on their safety awareness as a Driving Centre. Perhaps some safety net rather than strengthening the fence be more appropriate to minimise injuries
