Ms Lai fell and hit her head and tailbone; her daughter fell forward, hurting her face, arms and legs.In a Facebook post about the accident on Tuesday night, Mr Foo said the cyclist was a male Caucasian with blond hair, 1.75m to 1.80m in height, who said he was British and that his name was George.
“He gave me two numbers... I trusted him as my focus back then was to quickly rush my family to hospital for medical attention,” said Mr Foo, a product manager, adding that he was unable to contact the cyclist after the accident.Ms Lai told ST that the man who crashed into them was with another cyclist riding ahead of him, but she did not ask this second cyclist for his contact details.
After the accident, the family returned to their home in Siglap, and Mr Foo drove them to Parkway East Hospital for medical attention.“My tailbone hurts... I cannot bend down, wear my pants properly, carry my child or sit properly,” Ms Lai told ST. “My daughter is okay to go back to school, but we have to look out for any behaviour out of the ordinary – such as prolonged sleeping and vomiting – and keep her wounds clean and dry,” said Ms Lai.
