Community first responder stops to help motorcyclist injured in 2-vehicle CTE accident, even notifying rider's employer
A man was driving along the Central Expressway (CTE) on Tuesday (Nov 10), when he witnessed an accident involving a car and a motorcycle.The incident happened at about 7.45am along CTE towards the Ayer Rajah Expressway, before the Ang Mo Kio Avenue 5 exit.But instead of driving past the scene, he decided to stop and render assistance, staying with the injured motorcyclist until Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) paramedics arrived. The incident was shared by the Marsiling Community Emergency and Engagement Committee (C2E) on its Facebook page the same day.According to the post, the man, Alex Tho, used his first-aid knowledge and training to conduct an assessment of the motorcyclist's injuries.He then stayed by the motorcyclist's side, helping him to remain still to minimise unnecessary movements that may worsen his injuries.Tho is later seen in pictures speaking to paramedics, presumably to hand over information on the motorcyclist's condition.
