Teen driving Mercedes charged over crash that killed four family members in Kluang

A 19-year-old Singaporean student, Goh Yin Zun, was brought to the Magistrate's Court in Kluang on September 18, charged with reckless and dangerous driving following a crash that claimed the lives of four family members in June. Goh's lawyer, Mohd Daud Ismail, argued in court that his client should be granted bail at a reduced amount due to his young age and the fact that he is currently pursuing a diploma in business studies in Singapore.

Goh pleaded not guilty to the charge, which alleges that he was driving a Mercedes-Benz recklessly at a high rate of speed on June 1 near KM27 of Jalan Renggam-Simpang Renggam. If convicted, Goh faces up to five years in jail and a fine of up to RM15,000. His bail was set at RM10,000 with one surety, and he will have to report to a police station once a month. The court has scheduled a case mention for November 20.
