JASIN, September 4 — A tragic motorcycle accident near a petrol station in Bemban claimed the lives of two individuals last night. Jasin district police chief Supt Lee Robert disclosed that both victims succumbed to their injuries at the scene. According to the initial investigation, the 21-year-old college student was traveling from Bemban towards Ayer Keroh, while the 41-year-old lorry driver was en route from Ayer Keroh towards Bemban.
It appears the 41-year-old motorcyclist attempted an overtaking maneuver, crossing over into the opposing lane, and collided with the motorcycle driven by the 21-year-old. Both motorcycles suffered significant front-end damage and were transported to the Computerised Vehicle Inspection Centre (Puspakom) in Alor Gajah for examination.
The post-mortem examination is scheduled to take place at Jasin Hospital Forensic Unit following the identification of the bodies. The case is being probed under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987. Despite initial attempts, police were unable to retrieve any CCTV or dashcam footage of the incident.
