On October 18, 2024, a devastating accident on Hong Kong's Tsing Ma Bridge resulted in the death of 22-year-old motorcyclist Lam Kwai-yiu. The incident occurred at 12:48 PM when Lam's motorcycle collided with a stationary patrol vehicle, leaving his family and community in mourning just days before a shared birthday celebration with his mother.
Lam was known for his remarkable dedication to his family, contributing half of his monthly income to support his parents. His friendly nature made him well-loved among friends and teachers, many of whom gathered at the hospital to pay their respects. The accident raised serious concerns about road safety on one of Hong Kong's busiest bridges.
According to Lam's elder sister, he shared his birthday, October 22, with their mother, making the timing of his tragic death even more poignant. On the day of the accident, Lam was returning home after completing his deliveries of confinement meals to new mothers when the crash occurred.
Witnesses reported that the patrol car was responding to another minor incident, and there were no warning signs or cones present at the scene. Lam's family has vowed to seek answers and accountability for the circumstances surrounding the accident.
Compounding the family's grief, the helmet camera that could have captured crucial evidence of the incident was reportedly missing. However, surveillance footage showed Lam traveling in the left lane without reducing speed before colliding with the patrol vehicle, which had its emergency lights activated.
Authorities are urging anyone with information about the incident to contact the investigating officers at 3661 1348 or 3661 1446.
