A 66-year-old woman who was hit by a bus, then dragged under it for nearly half a minute, was pronounced dead on the spot in a horrific traffic accident that occurred at 11.20am on Tuesday.
The accident took place at the junction of Sengkang East Way and Compassvale Road.
The woman was crossing the road when she was hit by SBS Transit Bus Service 159, which was making a right turn at the junction. The woman was then dragged for about half a minute more under the bus before other motorists alerted the bus driver.
Residents of the nearby Housing Board (HDB) estate witnessed the tragedy. IT technician Mr Terence Lim, 31, recalled the sounds made by the woman's body as it was dragged under the bus. 'It all happened so quickly, I didn't even hear her scream,' he said.
