A serious accident involving a tipper truck, a lorry, and a taxi occurred this morning on the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE).

STOMPer Bary John sent in a photo of the accident to STOMP.

According to a report in The Straits Times, a section of the AYE just before Tuas West had to be closed due to the accident.

The driver of the taxi and his passenger were trapped inside the vehicle. They have been rescued by SCDF personnel and sent to hospital.

The accident occurred at about 9.36am along the AYE towards Tuas close to the Tuas West Exit.

How the accident occurred has not been established.

Passed by at 0850hrs and saw the accident involving the tipper lorry loaded with wet clay, the taxi, one covered van, one 14 footer lorry and one passenger car. The tipper landed on its side and was supported by the taxi which right side was trapped by the center divider railing. Taxi driver was rescued about one hour later with applause from the onlookers and he managed a weak wave to thank them. A total of 5 passing lorry crane which passed by had helped to lift the tipper off from the taxi. SCDF had to cut open the top of the taxi roof top and rescued the passenger about two hours later. I am glad that there are still good souls on the roads who stopped their lorry crane to help, nearby construction workers came and assisted in securing the lifting belts and scooping out the clay out from the taxi interior.
