  "account": "A motorcyclist lost his life in a collision involving his bike and two cars on the AYE near Tuas Checkpoint on October 3. Emergency services arrived at the scene around 3:35pm, with a 40-year-old male motorcyclist being pronounced dead at the location by a Singapore Civil Defence Force paramedic. The Straits Times has reached out to SCDF for further details. The Land Transport Authority posted on X at 3:10pm about the accident on the AYE towards Tuas, advising motorists to steer clear of lanes 1 and 2. Pictures of the aftermath shared on Facebook show the motorcycle overturned on the rightmost lane in a part of AYE close to the Tuas Checkpoint. A white sheet lays near the motorcycle, with a black car with a dented rear parked just in front. Police and an SCDF ambulance are visible on the second lane. This marks at least the third fatal traffic accident in the past week.",
