SINGAPORE: A 31-year-old man was taken to hospital after a metal pole smashed through the windscreen of his van while he was travelling along the Tampines Expressway (TPE) on Tuesday (Aug 7).
The incident occurred along the TPE towards the Seletar Expressway before the Punggol exit.

"It pierced through my windscreen," he said, adding that he had managed to pull over to the road shoulder.
He told Channel 8 News that he was driving when he saw the metal pole flying towards him, but he did not know where it came from.
Photos and video accompanying his post show a metal pole piercing the windscreen of his vehicle, with bits of glass and debris seen on the inside of the vehicle.
