A 19-year-old night market trader was killed in a road accident while travelling to Kuala Terengganu to attend the RXZ Members 8.0 gathering on Thursday night. Muhammad Zulhairi Azhar Mohd Shahrizan, from Klang, Selangor, was pronounced dead at the scene after the accident involving his Yamaha LC135 motorcycle and a Perodua Myvi at Kilometre 112.3 of the East Coast Expressway (LPT) heading towards Kuantan at about 11pm.
Temerloh district police chief Assistant Commissioner Mohd Nasyim Bahron said preliminary investigations revealed that the victim was travelling in a convoy of five motorcyclists from Klang to Kuala Terengganu for the RXZ Members 8.0 event. He said the victim is believed to have lost control of his motorcycle at the accident site before skidding and falling onto the left lane, throwing him into the right lane of the highway.
“A Perodua Myvi travelling in the right lane was unable to avoid the victim and struck him, causing him to be flung back onto the roadside on the left lane,” said Mohd Nasyim. “The victim was pronounced dead at the scene as a result of the collision,” he said in a statement on Friday, reported by Sinar Harian.
Mohd Nasyim said further investigations found that the victim did not possess a valid motorcycle licence at the time of the accident. Initial investigations indicate that the crash was caused by the victim’s failure to maintain control of his motorcycle, he added, with the case being investigated under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.
No motorcycle licence. See, this is what happens police close both eyes to these people and make enforcement to them based on trust only. Motorcyclist truly are above the law in Malaysia.
To paraphrase the legendary Ling Liong Sik regarding the high rate of motorcyclist accidents and deaths, “Mereka mahu mati, apa boleh kita buat?”If they ride with a death wish with no regard for the safety of other road users, no amount of banning, restrictions, etc will ever reduce the fatality rate. They will just find other ways to kill themselves and harm other road users.
kemalangan sebegini banyak bergantung kepada minda penunggang motosikal. atas highway, jalan yang dirancang untuk mengurangkan kemalangan, jalan dengan dua lane dan cukup ruang untuk semua. bgaimana boleh hilang kawalan ? melainkan penungang lalai… minda penungang perlu diubah bukan lebih banyak undang undang jalanraya.. penganju RX-Z member 8.0 perlu ambil ikhtibar bagaimana merubah minda bahaya ini. gathering ini ada baiknya… ia boleh diguna untuk membentuk rekreasi menunggang yg sihat dan selamat
Govt should BAN all these ‘mari beramai ramai” bike convoys.It is insane for these convoys to go on.
When u ‘gang’ up in a convoy, it only takes one biker to make mistake,and others get entangled in the mess.
Worst still ,other innocent motorists get killed or suffer spinal debilitating injuries that leave them in a wheelchair at an early age.
Hello,Ahlokekor b4 the NS elections,do the right thing.Lobby for a complete ban on these unproductive and dangerous convoys.
PDRM should more often cracked down all this illegal bikes, its really annoying and irritating….should also impose heavy penalties including jail.
this is good news. the only way it could have been better is if the entire 5-bike convoy was run over by the myvi .
^^^ this, the pos didn’t have license. You can be sure the rest of the scum had no license as well.
finally some good news in Paul Tan, Alhamdulilah for that Perodua Myvi
Natural selection in process
It wont be a RXZ gathering if it doesnt involve a few deaths. Happens every year.
Unfortunate. You put together people overflowing with ego, need to show off, potentially ride dangerously and closely together and bad things WILL happen.
That’s why I don’t ride convoys. Ive seen the worst.
Wow! congratulation! wish u have a shit place in hell… hopefully more will follow next!
“anak saya baik”
If the myvi driver got a sniff of alcohol he will be charged for murder.
is the Yamaha LC135 ok? did it survive the crash?
