KUCHING: Three drivers escaped unharmed after their vehicles were involved in a road accident at Jalan Wan Alwi-Tabuan Dusun here last Monday (Aug 17).
Sarawak Traffic Investigation and Enforcement chief Supt Alexson Naga Chabu said the accident occurred at 2.30pm in front of Lodge International School.
“At the time, two vehicles — a Proton Exora and a Toyota Vios — travelling from Setia Raja roundabout, came to a stop at a traffic light.
“Suddenly, a four-wheel drive (4WD) vehicle from the opposite direction was believed to have gone out of control and knocked a lamp post causing it to fall onto the Proton Exora.
“After knocking down the post, the 4WD skidded and collided with the Toyota Vios at the back, causing the 4WD to overturn in the middle of the road,” he said in a statement.
The drivers were helped out of their vehicles by passers-by who witnessed the accident.
