Two polytechnic classmates died when the car they were in plunged into a ditch and hit a tree along Old Upper Thomson Road late on Tuesday night.
They were the rear passengers, identified as Mr David Li, 18, and Mr Mervin Teo, 19. It took rescuers nearly 30 minutes to extricate them from the back seat where they were trapped.

The driver and his front seat passenger, aged 19 and 20, escaped with slight injuries. One of them was discharged from Singapore General Hospital on Wednesday morning.
The four are all students of Nanyang Polytechnic. The horrific crash happened at 11.45 pm as the car, a Mitsubishi Lancer, was travelling along Old Upper Thomson Road towards the Seletar Expressway.
It is not known if the two rear passengers were wearing seat belts.
