SINGAPORE: A chain collision involving multiple Singapore-registered vehicles and a public bus occurred this week on the Johor-Singapore Causeway, disrupting traffic heading towards Singapore.

According to Oriental Daily, the accident happened at around 11:19am on Thursday (17 July) when a grey BYD Singapore-registered sedan made a sudden lane switch from the regular car lane into the dedicated bus lane and collided head-on with a public bus that was travelling straight.

Following the impact, the BYD sedan reportedly lost control, skidded across lanes, and crashed into two other Singapore-registered cars in the left car lane.

The Johor Bahru police confirmed the incident in a statement and said that the BYD car’s sudden deviation into the bus lane triggered the multi-vehicle collision and that the right side of the car sustained significant damage.

No injuries were reported.

The police has classified the incident under Section 6(1) of Malaysia’s Road Traffic Act 1959, which deals with offences related to negligent or dangerous driving, and has urged all road users to abide by traffic rules and regulations. Investigations are ongoing.
