A CAR caught fire after it crashed onto the guard railing of a road centre divider early on Sunday morning.

The 29-year-old driver was travelling on Ayer Rajah Expressway towards Tuas when his car skidded near the 12.5km mark, veered to the right and smashed into the railing. He managed to escape from the car before the front of it caught fire.

But he suffered serious head injuries and was taken unconscious to the National University Hospital.
