A BMW crashed into a traffic light post after it was hit by another car in an accident at the junction of New Bridge Road and Cantonment Road on Oct 13 at about 9.15am.

The driver, a 58-year-old man, was taken to Singapore General Hospital (SGH) with minor injuries.

Stomper Ah Boy shared a photo of the accident with Stomp.
