SINGAPORE: In a bizarre twist of fate that left many shaking their heads and checking their rear-view mirrors, a multi-vehicle accident occurred on the East Coast Parkway (ECP) on the afternoon of October 3. The incident involved around nine vehicles that ended up creating a scene reminiscent of a game of Jenga, with cars literally stacked on top of one another. Eyewitnesses described the chaos as both alarming and surreal as some drivers could do nothing more than sit in disbelief and record the unexpected scenario unfolding before them.

Witness Susan, who shared the eye-catching video and photos of the accident, reported that the crash happened just as evening traffic was building up, leading to a massive jam extending back for what felt like an eternity. With drivers honking and frustrated faces all around, other road users couldn't help but peek at the towering automobile stack that had formed. Eyewitness accounts suggest that the whole affair could have been avoided, sparking discussions about the importance of maintaining a safe distance on our busy roads.

Out of the multiple cars involved, four individuals were taken to Raffles Hospital with injuries. Thankfully, there were no life-threatening cases reported, but the dramatic pile-up has left many to ponder the possibilities and dangers that accompany a collision of this magnitude. The event also served as a reminder to all drivers that proactive caution can prevent such tricky situations from spiraling out of control.

In the aftermath of the crash, it's key to note that traffic accidents, especially during peak hours, can result in significant delays, perpetuating a cycle of frustration and unsafe driving habits. In fact, according to the Land Transport Authority, maintaining a healthy space between vehicles can reduce the likelihood of accidents significantly, ensuring everyone gets to their destination safely. So, next time you're cruising down the ECP, remember - stay sharp, stay safe, and let's keep those cars from playing Jenga!
