VIDEO: Proton Saga crashes into a bike in Segamat

Buat laju ikut suka hati, orang lain yg kena kemudian turun kereta buat mcm x salah. Alfaatihah buat Ustaz Jamal yg meninggal di tempat kejadian dan anaknya patah kaki.Kepada pemandu2 di Malaysia tolong memandu dgn berhemah. Ini kalo org lain kena langgar, kalo anda adalah mangsanya. Jgn nak salahkan Tuhan yg menentukan. Memang Tuhan menentukan tapi sebagai pengajaran dan anda kena menanggungnya. Bukan setakat bayar pampasan. Qisas dibalas qisas. Bila anda pandu laju maknanya anda tahu anda akan membahayakan orang lain dan boleh membunuh. Maka bunuh hukumnya bunuh ye. #TolongBersabarKeranaSabarAdalahKayuUkurImanKita

Warning: graphic content. The video above shows a gnarly crash between a Proton Saga FLX and a motorcycle, which happened near Segamat, on the Johor Bahru-Seremban road. The bike rider was killed on the spot, while his nine-year-old son suffered a broken leg.

It’s unclear what exactly caused the accident. As you can see in the clip above, the Proton appeared to spear directly into the path of the motorcycle, which had just pulled away from a stop light.

The driver apparently claimed to have lost control of his vehicle from avoiding a different car in the opposing lane. The speed and angle of the car’s approach before the accident would support this claim. Some parties on the Internet, however, believe that the driver tried to run a red light.

Whatever it was, the consequences are tragic.

Dear readers, let this serve as another reminder to always drive carefully on the roads. Stick to the speed limit, pay attention behind the wheel, and anticipate the movement around you so you can react better/faster. Remember, your mistake may cause harm to others too.

      Flx executive do have ABS. The spotlight suggestted it is a exec trim. Unless it is an aftermarket accessories installation.
      Mostly the saga is driving quite fast, wont less than 60kmh confirmed.

      This is not your typical Myvi with no ABS. The Saga FLX exec is equipped with ABS unlike your favorite brand tin kosong P2

        Kalau tak tahu cerita tolong jangan judge.. the car was totally salah.. sebab dia memang pemandu yang egois dan tak berhati perut . Im the motorcyclist relative and very close to him.. i know the real story.. people can judge.. belum kena batang hidung sendiri .. tolongla sensitiv sket.. jaga perasaan org lain ..

    1. The car appears to be fishtailing, lost control towards the right.
    2. The final direction of the car that loses control usually is the final steer that the driver made before the tyres lost traction.
    3. Means that the driver swerve the steering in left-then-right orientation, very fast.
    4. But for first seven seconds of the video, there are NO cars at the opposite lane (bike’s lane) while vehicles (lorries & exora) in front of Saga appeared to be driven sedately.
    5. VERDICT: The Saga is driven quite fast than others, swerving the traffic and finally lost control.

    drive safe everyone…. balik kampung season is upon us. no matter what car you use, even it is equipped with everything, there are still chances of getting involve in road accident. the most effective safety feature is by using your brain. dont agree? then tell me what feature is better than your brain?

    who ever is guilty in this video, this accident must be cause by some stupid driver. the driver said he lost control of his vehicle from avoiding a different car in the opposing lane. so one of them must be stupid driver or might be stupid enough to ignore his car maintenance.

    Tak kira la sapa yang bersalah. Seorang penunggang motosikal yg patuh lalulintas telah hilang nyawa. Ada isteri kehilangan suami tempatnya bergantung. Ada budak cedera parah dan anak kehilangan ayahnya.

    clearly, the Saga was moving too fast.. look at the other vehicles on the same lane with the Saga, all the vehicles were driven at a slow speed.. we also can see that the driver tried to avoid the bike in front of him as the car is driven too damn fast but the bike is moving at a low speed..

    No doubt, cannot it brings up the question, how much of the driver’s claim is real. Considering how slow traffic was on the opposite lane, he clearly must have been doing at least double everyone else’s speed.

    Sure he could have been avoiding an oncoming car, makes sense since he was weaving in and out. But at that speed…. he must be mad.

    Scum.

    Such a wasteful loss of life.

    If find guilty the driver should be charged for reckless driving, reckless endangerment of life and criminal negligence. He should also compensate the family, as the deceased was probably the breadwinner of the family.

    The moral of the story is, actually, most ppl just missed it, which is, MOTORBIKE IS NOT A SAFE WAY TO COMMUTE, the riders own body are the “crumple zone”. It is very FUNNY people talk and care so much about CAR SAFETY features YET they think it’s OKIE to ride a Bike to work. Humans are FUNNY stupid animal.

    • Wow, this is just a plain stupid and ignorant comment. The point of this video is not to show the ‘crumple zone’ of a bike or a car, its to point out how a driver’s carelessness had resulted in man slaughtering, though involuntary.

      No matter how much safety you have, if an accident is going to happen, someone is bound to get hurt regardless of the amount of safety they have on them.

      Side note, not everyone can afford a car. You disgusts me as a fellow road user.

    I would propose sebatan or whipping to those who drive recklessly (with out causing death) and driving under the influence of alcohol + batal lesen and retake the whole test and jail for years…if causes death than death sentence..or jail for life

  • What irritates me the most is the way the driver comes out to check well-being of the guy he just hit.

    Slowly taking his own sweet time.
    No urgency at all.

    Look at how the other guy responded.

    Sad.

    Really pity the motorcyclist and his son. May his soul rest in peace. What a time to have met a tragedy when it’s so near to Raya….

    To all other drivers out there on the balik kampung mood, do think of your love ones as well as others.
