Serangoon Road residents woke up to a horrific accident this morning.
A lorry driver rammed into five cars and also hit a pedestrian who was flung metres away, apparently after losing control of his vehicle.
The driver, an Indian national working here, first hit the taxi and then the female pedestrian, before slamming into four cars in a carpark, reported Lianhe Wanbao.
As he reportedly lost control of the lorry, his vehicle also mounted a pavement and grass patch.
The woman, believed to be in her 20s, suffered serious injuries and was rushed to hospital. A witness said she was bleeding from her wounds and had leg injury.
The taxi driver, who complained of chest pain, was also sent to hospital.
The accident happened around 7am this morning near the junction of Serangoon Road and Towner Road.
