AN EARLY morning collision on Wednesday left a car turned turtle and a van ablaze at the busy junction of Jurong West Avenue 5 and Jalan Bahar.
Police said that they received a call at about 7am informing them of the accident involving the two vehicles.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force arrived a few minutes later and put out the fire, which came from the van's front engine compartment.
No was injured in the accident.
Stomper Elijah Chai said police arrived at the scene at about 7.15m.
From her window, she said she saw a vehicle on fire, right smack in the middle of the junction, and an overturned car.
'Flames were shooting up into the sky, and traffic was restricted to just a single lane of the major junction. There were some SCDF officers trying to put out the fire. There was a smallish explosion that took an officer off-guard,' she said in an email to Stomp.
'A while later, an officer entered the overturned car and turned off the engine. An ambulance arrived later, having taken a detour to avoid the massive jam.'
'As far as I could see, I did not witness any casualties.'
She also sent in several photos of the accident to Stomp.
