Woman injured in recent fatal road accident at Tampines Ave 12 seeking psychiatric treatment due to trauma, says Baey Yam Keng

Singapore's North East District MP Baey Yam Keng has shared an update about a recent fatal road accident on Tampines Ave 12. On Oct 29, a blue Audi collided with another car and a motorcycle, claiming the lives of the motorcyclist and his pregnant wife, both aged 24. They left behind a six-year-old son. The driver of the Audi, a 30-year-old man, was arrested and charged with nine offenses, including dangerous driving causing death and injury, driving a deregistered vehicle with a false license plate, and driving without a license.

Mayor Baey visited Mira, the 25-year-old woman who was driving the other vehicle, to offer his condolences. He reported that Mira did not sustain serious physical injuries but is seeking psychiatric treatment for the trauma she experienced. The vehicle she was driving, belonging to her father, was severely damaged and will need to be scrapped, impacting her family as her father relies on the car for work at Jurong Island.

Baey spoke with Mira and her family about the support they require, including legal advice and insurance claims, hoping their assistance would be provided soon. He expressed his wishes for Mira's smooth and speedy recovery and extended his thoughts to the family of the couple who tragically lost their lives in the accident. Baey also urged for a meeting with relevant agencies to discuss potential measures to prevent similar incidents along Tampines Ave 12.
