The Proton X50 SUV Skidded into Stopped Motorcycles Due to Loss of Control Amidst Heavy Rain

A Proton X50 SUV, driven by a 21-year-old woman, lost control and skidded into two motorcycles that were stopped for shelter during heavy rainfall. The incident occurred on the Sungai Besi-Ulu Kelang Expressway (SPE) at approximately 4:40 pm.
Loss of Control During Heavy Rain

The driver of the Proton X50 SUV is believed to have lost control of the vehicle while it was raining heavily. This loss of control led to the SUV skidding.
Impact with Motorcycles Seeking Shelter

The skidding SUV subsequently collided with two motorcycles that had pulled over to seek shelter from the downpour. This collision resulted in one motorcyclist being fatally thrown from the bridge.
Injuries and Investigation

The crash caused a 31-year-old motorcyclist to be ejected approximately 30 metres from the bridge, resulting in his death at the scene. Another motorcyclist and his pillion rider, both 18 years old, sustained facial injuries and were taken to Kuala Lumpur Hospital for treatment. An alcohol screening test on the 21-year-old female driver was negative, but she has been detained to aid in the ongoing investigation under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.
