Oooh wee, this one looks real nasty — nasty enough to make us physically cringe watching the moment of impact. Earlier this morning, an ambulance and a Mercedes sedan got involved in an intense collision at the traffic junction between Woodlands Avenue 5 and Woodlands Avenue 6.
The Mercedes driver, however, seemed fine as he emerged from the mangled wreckage of his car, looking to pick a fight with the ambulance driver.
Though the view from a dash cam didn’t show the traffic lights, it appears to be that the driver behind the wheel of the Mercedes could be the one to blame here. The man had been attempting to make a right turn from Woodlands Avenue 5 when an incoming Comfort ambulance — a private emergency service operator — slammed right into the car’s right side. The sedan driver appeared to have attempted to speed up to avoid the collision, but it didn’t stand a chance and got slammed right into the bollards at the pedestrian crossing.
Which we have to point out, is very strong. Fortunately, no pedestrian was nearby when the accident transpired.
The condition of the ambulance driver is unknown and it’s unclear if there was a patient at the back of the van. What’s clear though is the Mercedes driver turned out just fine — just look at his aggression when he tried to whip open the ambulance’s door.
