  "account": "Lipis: Rantau Panjang MP Datuk Siti Zailah Mohd Yusoff was injured in a vehicle accident along the Lingkaran Tengah Utama expressway on Tuesday evening. The 63-year-old lawmaker and her 26-year-old daughter were en route from Gua Musang, Kelantan, to Kuala Lumpur when the mishap happened at 6pm. The daughter, who was behind the wheel of a sport utility vehicle, emerged unscathed. District police chief Superintendent Ismail Man stated that the driver likely lost control of the vehicle, prompting a skid before it struck a road barrier. Zailah sustained chest and abdominal injuries and was transported to Kuala Lipis Hospital for medical attention. Her daughter remained uninjured, according to Ismail's statement. The incident will be examined under Rule 10 of the Road Traffic Rules, which prescribes a fine of RM300 for failing to maintain control of a vehicle. Two years ago, Zailah suffered minor injuries when a pickup truck she was in collided along Jalan Bukit Antarabangsa in Selangor.",
