A 29-year-old woman and her nine-month-old infant daughter were taken to two hospitals after an accident — involving a car and a taxi — in Marina Bay that saw the car they were in land on its side along a hotel driveway.

The incident happened at about 10.35pm at 6 Raffles Boulevard — the listed address for Parkroyal Collection Marina Bay hotel. 

A video posted on social media shows the passenger car lying on its side at the hotel's driveway.

At least two Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) fire engines, an ambulance and a rescue tender were present at the scene.

Responding to AsiaOne's queries, the police and SCDF said the 29-year-old woman was taken conscious to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, while her nine-month-old infant daughter was taken to KK Women's and Children's Hospital. 

The 60-year-old male car driver is assisting with ongoing investigations, the police added.
