How many accidents on Malaysian highways are caused by vehicles losing control on slopes?

Question

## Official data does not isolate slope-specific accident statistics

Accepted Answer

There is no publicly available national aggregate that specifically quantifies the number of accidents caused by vehicles losing control on slopes in Malaysia. While the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) and the Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS) track road accident data extensively, these figures are typically categorized by primary causes such as speeding, reckless driving, or loss of control, rather than by specific topographical features like gradients or downhill stretches. Consequently, while individual incidents involving downhill loss of control are documented, they are subsumed into broader statistical categories regarding vehicle handling and speed-related violations.
