The 4WD Vehicle Lost Control Before the Collision

A 32-year-old female civil servant, driving a Mitsubishi Triton, was believed to have lost control of her vehicle before it veered into the opposite lane and collided with a motorcycle. The incident occurred along Jalan Tawau-Bombalai, near Kampung Haji Matahir. The 4WD vehicle was travelling from Kampung Sungai Imam towards the Felda Umas Health Clinic at the time of the accident.
Circumstances of the Loss of Control

The driver of the 4WD vehicle was reportedly heading towards the Felda Umas Health Clinic when she is believed to have lost control of the vehicle as she arrived at the accident scene. While the immediate cause for this loss of control is not specified in the available information, it led to the vehicle entering the oncoming lane.
Collision with the Motorcycle

Upon veering into the opposite lane, the 4WD vehicle collided with a Yamaha 135LC motorcycle. The motorcycle was being ridden by a 24-year-old Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) Shah Alam student, Mazlan Tuwo, who was on his way to undergo practical training at the Tawau District Education Office.
Aftermath of the Collision

The impact of the collision was severe enough to cause the 4WD vehicle to skid onto the road shoulder and subsequently overturn into a drain. The motorcyclist and his vehicle were thrown approximately five metres onto the road shoulder. Mazlan Tuwo was pronounced dead at the scene by a medical officer. The driver of the 4WD vehicle sustained serious injuries, including a fractured shoulder and right arm, and was transported to Tawau Hospital for treatment.
