A car driven by a 36-year-old man crashed into a section of centre railings along a road divider in Yishun, after it was believed to have skidded on Monday night (May 25).

The incident occurred at about 9.30pm along Yishun Avenue 5 towards Sembawang Road, in vicinity of Yishun MRT station.

Photographs sent to a motoring chat group on Telegram show the car with significant damage to its front bumper and bonnet. 

The car bore a Tribecar sticker on the driver's door.

A row of fallen railings could be seen behind the car, which was lodged into another section of railings.

At least one Traffic Police expressway patrol car and a Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) ambulance were present at the scene.

In response to queries from AsiaOne, the police and SCDF said the male driver sustained minor injuries but refused to be taken to the hospital.

The car is believed to have skidded, the police said, adding that investigations are ongoing.
