Woman dies in two-car collision near Kota Tinggi after vehicle veers into oncoming traffic

A 60-year-old woman perished in a collision involving two vehicles near Kota Tinggi on November 15. The police were alerted to the accident at 2 pm, which occurred at kilometre 45 of Jalan Johor Bahru-Mersing. The Toyota Vios, driven by a 33-year-old man, had apparently crossed into the opposite lane, striking the Proton Saga, which was being piloted by a 28-year-old woman.

The deceased, the woman's mother, was travelling in the car with her two young daughters, aged seven and five. Initial findings indicated that the woman suffered severe internal injuries and succumbed to her wounds at the scene. The drivers of both cars and the children were transported to Kota Tinggi Hospital for further medical attention.

The hospital also received the woman's body for additional forensic examinations. The incident will be probed under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.
