Two individuals lost their lives in separate accidents in Perak, Malaysia. The first incident occurred near the West Coast Expressway toll plaza in Teluk Intan, where a 25-tonne empty lorry collided with two vehicles - a Toyota Vellfire and a Honda HRV. Both women inside the Toyota Vellfire, aged 54 and 59, were involved in the accident.
While the 59-year-old driver sustained serious injuries and was rescued by members of the public, the 54-year-old driver tragically lost her life. A 50-year-old man in the Honda HRV suffered minor injuries. The bodies of the deceased women were handed over to the police, and the injured victims received initial treatment before being taken to the hospital by ambulance.
The second accident took place near Kampung Pulau Juar, close to Kampung Gajah, involving a Proton Wira carrying a family of six. The vehicle skidded into a drain around 10.50 pm the previous day. Four family members - a woman, three boys, and a girl - were safely removed from the car by nearby residents before firefighters arrived at about 11 pm.
The man driving the Proton Wira was found unconscious and was extricated by firefighters, who then provided medical treatment and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) at the scene. However, the 39-year-old man met his end despite the efforts of the rescuers, and his remains were handed over to the police.
