A trailer overturned near the Jalan Duta toll plaza on the New Klang Valley Expressway earlier today, blocking several lanes and causing massive congestion. Not only that, but its fuel tank also sprang a leak that spilled dangerous flammable liquid across the highway.. Although most motorists chose to drive around the trailer on the right-hand side , a few vehicles were driven on the left side, running directly over the fuel as it flowed towards the drain.
This went about as well as you would expect. A silver Perodua Axia driving over the stream was immediately engulfed in flames – albeit thankfully only for a few seconds – while another trailer behind also caught fire. Luckily, by this time everyone behind had seen what had happened and decided to funnel towards the rightmost lane. It’s a good job that nothing worse happened.
The fire, by the way, was eventually put out by a fire engine and water tanker nine minutes after Bomba received an emergency call at around noon.reported that the driver of the partially-burnt trailer was thankfully only injured on his head and hand and was taken to the hospital.After trying to pursue a career in product design, Jonathan Lee decided to make the sideways jump into the world of car journalism instead.
