They were successfully rescued from the car after one hour. The driver sustained minor injuries and has been taken to the Seberang Jaya Hospital, while the passenger died on the spot.
Car accidents happen when we least expect them. That’s why we REALLY need to be extra careful while on the road to prevent tragedy like this.
