Out of control bus crashes into 20 vehicles

SUNGAI PETANI: An out of control bus crashed into 20 vehicles at a traffic light junction at Bukit Amanjaya, here, this morning.

Kuala Muda police chief ACP Adzli Abu Shah said the bus ferrying factory workers had faulty brakes which resulted in the crash.

The stretch of road was on a hillside, thus increasing the bus' speed before it rammed into the vehicles that were stopped at the traffic light.

Fortunately, there were no fatalities.

Those injured were sent to the Sultan Abdul Halim Hospital for treatment.

Adzli said the police has detained the 30-year-old bus driver for questioning.

The case will be filed under Section 43(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for reckless driving.
