“Investigations found that the accident happened when the Honda Civic, driven by a 30‑year‑old local man, was travelling from Permas Jaya towards the city centre.”
“The man lost control of his vehicle at the location while attempting to overtake a Proton Wira driven by a 52‑year‑old local woman,” he said.
Both drivers escaped without any injuries
