Traffic snarl after tanker slams into LDP road divider
SERDANG: A petrol tanker driver lost control of his vehicle and hit into a road divider along Lebuhraya Damansara-Puchong (LDP) today, causing a massive traffic snarl during rush hour.
In the 7am incident, the driver of the tanker lost control as he was avoiding an ambulance which was parked at Km21.5 of the highway.
Serdang district police chief SAC Megat Mohamad Aminuddin Megat Alias said the ambulance was parked there as its personnel were tending to an accident that took place in the same location.
"The driver escaped unhurt. The tanker was not transporting anything. However, the accident caused a massive traffic jam as it was peak hours for people who are travelling to work," he said.
Police are investigating the case under Section 43(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.
