Nineteen-year-old motorcyclist killed in three-vehicle crash in Sepang

In a tragic incident in Sepang, a 19-year-old female motorcyclist lost her life in a three-vehicle collision. The victim, riding a blue Honda C100, was struck by a black Honda C100 motorcycle traveling from Sungai Pelek towards Nilai. The collision occurred on Jalan Sepang/Salak around 8:20pm yesterday when the blue motorcycle was illegally riding against the flow of traffic in the left lane.

Following the impact, the young woman was thrown from her motorcycle and landed in the right lane, where she was subsequently run over by a grey Proton Saga Iswara traveling straight in the right lane. Medical authorities confirmed her death at the scene.

The victim, who worked on a nearby cattle farm, was not legally allowed to drive a vehicle. Both motorcyclists involved in the collision were found without valid driving licenses.
