A Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) spokesman said a fire engine, a red rhino, two support vehicles and four ambulances were dispatched to the scene.
In total, seven people were injured in the accident.
A man who was stuck inside the saloon car was rescued by the SCDF within 15 minutes using hydraulic rescue equipment.
