In a scary chain of events, a female e-hailing driver found herself trapped in her car after driving off the road and into the lake near the Mines.
A video of the incident, showing a car drowning at a distance, was captured by one of the mall visitors and has since gone viral.
In the video, the woman is heard screaming for help. Fortunately, as the video shows, a boat ferrying a few security personnel could be heading towards the sinking vehicle.
According to the poster, the woman was saved just in time. However, the car had been completely submerged.
But, in a separate video, the woman shared that the car was eventually fished out of the lake.
Harian Metro reported that Serdang District police chief, ACP A.A. Anbalagan, said the incident occurred near The Heritage Residence apartment at around 3:30 pm and involved only the female driver.
“At the time, the victim who was driving a Toyota Vios, was on her way to pick up a passenger from Aestetica Residence, and it was raining heavily.”
“When driving through the area, the victim claimed that she did not notice the pooled water on the road due to the heavy rain, which caused her car to skid into the lake suddenly,” he added.
