A 24-year-old man, Raeven Goh Wey Haur, pleaded not guilty in a Kuala Lumpur court to three charges of dangerous driving that resulted in the death of a five-year-old girl, Asiah Ahmad Syahir, on October 10. The incident occurred on Jalan Kuching, heading towards Jalan Segambut at 3:44 pm. The prosecution under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987, which can lead to a five to ten-year prison sentence, a fine between RM20,000 and RM50,000, and potential driver’s license disqualification, supports the claim that Goh was driving dangerously in a BYD Seal electric vehicle.
The second charge alleges he was driving in a manner dangerous to the public due to traffic congestion, punishable by a maximum five-year sentence, a fine between RM5,000 and RM15,000, and potential license disqualification. Lastly, Goh is accused of failing to stop after an accident, under Section 52(1) of the same act, leading to a minimum six-month prison term or RM2,000 fine.
