On August 5, 2025, a serious traffic accident in Tampines Avenue 7 involving two SBS Transit double-decker buses and a private hire car resulted in 13 people being hospitalised. The accident happened at about 10:15am near the junction with Tampines Avenue 12.
The 69-year-old male bus driver and 12 passengers aged between 30 and 69 were conscious when taken to hospital. Five were brought to Changi General Hospital, while eight were sent to Sengkang General Hospital. Photos and videos showed the first bus slamming into the car, followed by a second bus crashing into the first.
One bus suffered major front-end damage, including a smashed windscreen and cracked upper-deck windows. The other had its rear upper-deck window shattered. Emergency responders treated several victims at the scene. SBS Transit reported temporary delays in several bus services, but operations resumed later. Police investigations are ongoing to determine the cause of the crash.
