Video: Kemalangan Berjuta Ringgit di Kluang

Kebelakangan ini, pemilik supercar Singapura sering terlibat dalam kemalangan di Malaysia.

Selepas kemalangan baru-baru ini yang melibatkan Porsche 911 edisi Dakar, NST semalam melapur kemalangan yang melibatkan orang Singapura sekali lagi.

Kali ini, ia melibatkan sekumpulan pemandu McLaren.

Kemalangan berlaku kira-kira jam 9 pagi semalam, ketika salah satu McLaren hendak membuat pusingan untuk masuk ke persimpangan di kilometer 63 di Jalan Yong Peng di sini. Kesemua pemandu tidak tercedera.

Timbalan Ketua Polis Daerah Kluang, Deputi Superintendan Nik Azmi Husin, berkata ketiga-tiga warga Singapura itu memandu supercar McLaren 570S dan 720S dari batu keempat menuju ke Taman Seri Lambak.

“Apabila tiba di tempat kejadian kemalangan, kereta terdepan lambat memasuki persimpangan di sebelah kanan dan kereta di tengah lambat mengunakan brek.”

“Bagaimanapun, kereta terakhir kehilangan kawalan dan merempuh ke kereta kedua, yang seterusnya merempuh kereta terdepan di hadapannya,” katanya ketika dihubungi semalam.

Menurut Nik Azmi, kes ini sedang disiasat di bawah Peraturan 10 LN 166/59 Peraturan Lalu Lintas Jalan Raya.

Sam Ke Ting Wins Appeal, Leaves Court A Free Woman

6 years ago, in February 2017, a young’s woman’s nightmare in Johor Bahru began when she was involved in an accident.  22 years old then, Sam Ke Ting was driving home in the early hours of the morning when she unexpectedly encountered a group of cyclists riding along a hilly and winding road that was also said to have poor lighting. Her car crashed into the 8 teenage cyclists who died as a result of severe injuries.

Following the accident, which she pleaded not guilty to, there was a court case where she was acquitted. The prosecution appealed against the judgement and on this second occasion, she was again acquitted. The Johor Bahru Magistrate’s Court upheld its decision as the prosecution had failed to prove their case again and reasonable doubt arose, based on all the evidence presented earlier.

Driver Who Crashed Into 6 Vehicles In Bukit Jalil Arrested And Found To Be Under Influence Of Drugs

Imagine yourself having a peaceful drive on a Saturday morning (traffic jams notwithstanding), minding your own business and obeying all the traffic laws. You’re waiting at a traffic light and suddenly, a car comes from behind and rams into your car. The crash would certainly be a great shock, and the start of a tiring process of having to make a police report and then dealing with the insurance company to get compensation for repairs. Normally, it can be a nightmare…

That’s what happened to six motorists last Saturday when a Lexus crashed into their cars as they were waiting at a junction near the Lumba Kuda Roundabout along the Bukit Jalil Highway in Kuala Lumpur. A motorist in one of the fortunate cars not to be hit got the footage on his dashcam of the crash which also resulted in the vehicle overturning.

According to the news report, the family in the car consisted of the father, mother and three children.

He therefore did not notice the water buffalo standing in the middle of the road until it was too late and hit it.

Transport Minister Asks MIROS To Investigate Genting Highlands Accident Which Caused 7 Deaths

The winding road up to the Genting Highlands resort complex on the border between Selangor and Pahang is well known by Malaysians (and even Singaporeans). For drivers, it is a challenging drive and being able to drive up is ‘test’ of a car.

But for the families and friends of a group of tourists who travelled along that road recently, it will bring memories of a tragedy. They were involved in an accident when the van they were in crashed into the concrete divider, with 6 of the passengers being killed right away. A seventh person who was the co-driver, died later in hospital.

According to the police, the group was returning to Penang from Genting Highlands when the driver lost control of the van at a bend near Km 4.8 and it crashed into the divider. The impact was severe at the front and killed the driver, and caused serious injuries to the co-driver. It is not known how four of the passengers died and whether everyone had seatbelts on.

Husband And Wife Killed In MPV Crash on LPT2, Children Injured

Motoring along highways is generally safe as the roads are usually in good condition and there are a few lanes so that overtaking can be done safely. The traffic flow is also safely separated on two sides, reducing dangers of collision.

However, accidents can still occur and sometimes with tragic outcomes. According to a Bernama report, a couple were killed and their 3 children injured when their vehicle crashed at KM274 of the East Coast Highway 2 (LPT2) near the Cheneh toll plaza exit at around 4 pm yesterday. The family, who reside in Kejang, Selangor, was said to be travelling to Kg. Gelugor, Kerteh, Terengganu after dropping one of their sons off in Kuantan.

Drunk Truck Driver Rams Car Causing Serious Injuries To Two Small Children In Accident

A collision between a pick-up truck and a passenger car in Mersing recently resulted in serious injuries to a 1-year old infant and 6-year old child.

Witnesses who saw the accident take place were angered by the recklessness of the truck driver and also the fact that he sped off after the accident.

According to reports in various media, the pick-up truck (a Nissan Navara) had rammed into the Toyota Vios at Km57 Jalan Batu Pahat in Mersing, Johor. The impact caused the car to skid and crash into a tree.

Woman Not Allowed Entry To Police Station To Make Report After Car Accident

Being deemed to be ‘improperly dressed’ resulted in a woman being prevented from entering the premises of a police station to make a report concerning a car accident she was involved in. While she was no wearing a bikini, the Bermuda shorts she had on were considered to be unacceptable under the dress code set by the police.

The woman related her experience to Free Malaysia Today and said that it happened at the Kajang police station. She had gone there after being involved in an accident in Batu Sembilan, Cheras, having been asked to go to the Kajang station by the Batu Sembilan station personnel.

At the Kajang station, the guard at the gate refused to allow her in and told her that her clothes were not acceptable. He then advised her to change to something acceptable, presumably something which covered her legs completely. He was insistent about her complying with the dress code, saying that even ministers would not be allowed in if dressed like she was.
