3 injured in car crash with elephant

In a recent incident near Jabor plantation, three individuals sustained minor injuries when an elephant collided with their vehicles. The collision occurred last night at KM160 of Jalan Jerangau-Jabor near Kemaman, Malaysia.

Amirul Afiq Aazmi, 29, in a Perodua Ativa, was en route from Jerangau towards Jabor when the incident unfolded. As the elephant crossed the road, the driver struggled to brake in time, resulting in a collision with the elephant.

The accident was followed by a second vehicle, a Perodua Myvi driven by Wan Muhammad Faiz Fakhrullah, 31, which collided with the rear of the Ativa. The crash left all three occupants with minor injuries.

Amirul sustained a minor hand injury, while Farhain, his passenger, suffered minor injuries to her leg and chest. The third individual, Wan Muhammad Faiz Fakhrullah, experienced a minor knee injury. Despite their injuries, the three were treated at the green zone of Kemaman Hospital.

To aid their investigation, police have obtained dashcam footage of the incident, adhering to Rule 10 of the Road Traffic Rules 1980.
