Motorcyclist killed after falling into lorry’s path following car collision

A 22-year-old motorcyclist lost his life after falling into the path of a lorry in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The incident occurred around 9:50 am today on Lebuhraya Sultan Iskandar, as the motorcyclist was traveling in the right lane towards Jalan Damansara. According to the Kuala Lumpur traffic police chief, Zamzuri Isa, the motorcyclist lost control of his vehicle and collided with a Honda City car in the same lane.

The impact caused the motorcyclist to lose control again and fall into the left lane, where he was struck by a lorry driven by a 40-year-old man. The lorry driver, who was unable to avoid the motorcyclist, did not sustain any injuries, nor did the Honda City driver. The motorcyclist, however, sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.

The case is currently under investigation for causing death by reckless or dangerous driving, as outlined in Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987. The police urge anyone with information related to the case to contact the Tun HS Lee traffic police station at 03-2071-9999.
