An 85-year-old Singaporean woman was fined $4,000 and banned from driving for five years after pleading guilty to causing grievous hurt by driving without due care, resulting in a 2024 crash.
She made an illegal right turn against traffic flow on Nicoll Highway into one-way Bras Basah Road while relying on her 90-year-old passenger for directions.
Her vehicle collided with oncoming traffic, spun, and hit a pedestrian island, injuring a 41-year-old passenger who spent 33 days in the hospital.
A dashcam video showed her asking if the turn was safe.
The court considered her age, cooperation, and decision to stop driving and sell her car.
Singapore requires drivers over 65 to undergo regular medical assessments.
Penalties for the offense include fines up to $5,000, up to two years in jail, or both.
