A PEDESTRIAN stepped onto the road without looking to the right and collided with a cyclist who died five hours later.

On Monday, Xu Yuanyuan, 19, a Chinese national, was fined $1,500 after she admitted to causing hurt to cleaner Lock Wai Chee, 42, by doing a negligent act as to endanger his life.

The court heard that Xu, a student, was waiting at the pavement of the Jalan Bukit Merah by Henderson Road junction on Dec 21 last year when she took a step forward when the traffic signal was against her.

As a result, she collided into the cyclist who was cycling towards her from her right side along Henderson Road.

Mr Lock was thrown off the bicycle and suffered serious head injuries. He died at 10.19pm.

Xu could have been jailed for up to six months and/or fined up to $2,500.

if it was a car that she collided with, will she or the driver be liable?

please lah, it is just an accident - the kind that happens many times everyday.

unfortunately in this case, the rider fell off the bike and hit his head - shows why you should wear helmet when riding bike.

having said that, i do think the country is way too crowded with foreigners. government has lost its way, no idea to grow economy except by bringing in more people

"She is on today's front page news. Is the Prostitute Press thinking that a $1500 is fair and justified? And look at how that prostitute Elena Chong cleverly named the article.. Hahahahaha"​
