Two injured in four-vehicle crash on Besraya highway
KUALA LUMPUR: Two men were injured in a four-vehicle crash on the Besraya Highway near Seri Kembangan on Monday after a car veered out of control and hit several vehicles. Kuala Lumpur Traffic Enforcement and Investigation Department chief, Assistant Commissioner Mohd Zamzuri Mohd Isa said the incident, which occurred at about 4.15pm involved a white Toyota Mark X driven by a 33-year-old man who was using a navigation app while travelling in the right lane. He reportedly lost control of the vehicle, crashing into the central divider before hitting the rear of a Perodua Myvi in the middle lane. "The impact caused the airbags to deploy, obstructing the driver's vision and causing the car to swerve into the left lane, where it collided with a motorcycle and a Honda BR-V," Zamzuri said. The motorcycle was ridden by a 32-year-old man, with another 32-year-old as his pillion passenger. Both men are in stable condition and receiving treatment in the Yellow Zone of Serdang Hospital. A 32-second video clip of the crash has since gone viral on social media, appearing on the Viral Now TV page. Zamzuri added that the driver of the Toyota Mark X underwent urine and alcohol screening, both of which returned negative results. The case is being investigated under Section 43(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.
