Singapore – Ten men were taken to the hospital after a lorry tipped over along Upper Bukit Timah Road on Saturday (Apr 24).

“Driver and passengers injured and sent to hospital after the lorry lost control, crashed and flipped sideways,” said SG Road Vigilante in a post which included a video showing the aftermath of the accident.

A 35-year-old male lorry driver and nine other male passengers aged between 26 and 50 were conveyed to the hospital while conscious.

The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said all 10 men were taken to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital.

The police confirmed they were alerted to the incident at 7.19 am.

In the video, SCDF personnel could be seen attending to the affected individuals.
