  "account": "In the early hours of today, near Klang, a trailer lorry driver was rescued from his vehicle just moments before it caught fire. The 58-year-old local man lost control of the lorry, causing it to crash into road dividers. According to South Klang police chief Lim Jit Huey, the incident occurred around 5.15am. The trailer lorry's cargo section detached completely from the cabin, which then ignited in flames. Firefighters managed to control the blaze by 6.15am. The accident led to significant traffic congestion. A video showing the burning trailer lorry obstructing traffic near a warehouse quickly circulated on social media.",
  "summary": "The lorry is believed to have lost control, struck the left road divider before veering off and crashing into the centre divider.",
