Authorities said they received information from the public about an accident victim who was believed to have been killed by a driver under the influence of alcohol and driving against the traffic at about 9.38pm.

 

The drunk driver drove in the opposite lane

He said that the incident took place when the driver of a Toyota C-HR came from the direction of Semambu and had entered into the road heading to the harbour, driving against the traffic direction.

Against Traffic

The driver was also driving negligently and had caused several other vehicles to collide while trying to avoid ramming into them.

According to a report by the Malay Mail, the driver of the Toyota C-HR is 42-year-old fish wholesaler who had been intoxicated at his friend’s house in Semambu before the incident happened.
