Though the carnage was only discovered the next day at 10am, the accident was estimated to have happened at 11pm the previous night. The two boys were believed to have been pinned down and in pain for 12 hours before rescuers found them and rushed them to Hospital Kulai for immediate treatment.
The family was heading from Muar to Johor Bahru when the accident happened. Unfortunately, the driver lost control of the car before ending in a ditch 100 m away from the shoulder of the road, making it difficult to spot the car until daylight came.
The accident is now under investigation by the Kulai Search and Rescue department.
We convey our sincere condolences to the family.
There isn’t a time in memory that doesn’t involve staring at cars. After discovering the excitement of watching Schumacher vs Hakkinen, Formula 1 became a major part of life. The love for cars and F1 ultimately led to a job with CAR Magazine. The untimely death of the magazine meant a hiatus from cars at lifestyle women’s magazine Marie Claire before another opportunity came knocking again.
