Female jaywalker sent flying after getting hit by oncoming car along Punggol Way

A video circulating online shows the shocking moment a woman was hit by a car while jaywalking on Punggol Way on August 3.

According to a caption on the clip, which was uploaded by Ben Chia Lor on Facebook and credited to Andrew Ng, the incident occurred at about 6.45pm.

The pedestrian can be seen crossing the road as vehicles slow down and come to a stop, only to be hit by an oncoming car. The impact sent her flying about a metre away from the car.

According to the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF), a 60-year-old woman was conveyed conscious to Khoo Teck Puat Hospital.
