GEORGE TOWN: Investigations into the road accident that killed a Malaysia Airlines stewardess showed the other car involved was travelling against traffic.

State traffic police enforcement/operations chief Asst Supt Ahmad Ezzely Razali said eyewitnesses told the investigating officer that the 22-year-old youth had turned into the wrong lane upon coming out of a petrol kiosk.

“We will record the youth’s statement once he is declared fit by doctors at the Penang Hospital.

“He is unable to speak presently due to injuries to his mouth and cheeks,” he said.

On Tuesday, stewardess Ng Sweet Yuin, 27, died on the spot after her Perodua MyVi was involved in a head-on collision with the vehicle driven by the youth on the Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway at 3.15am.

ASP Ahmad Ezzely said the road divider was not dented or damaged, thus ruling out the possibility that the youth’s car had “jumped over” from the opposite direction before crashing into Ng’s car.

“Blood samples have been taken from the drivers to determine if either of them were intoxicated or high on drugs.

“Both cars have also been sent to Puspakom for tests.

“The case is being investigated as causing death by reckless or dangerous driving under Section 41 of the Road Transport Act 1987,” he said.

Meanwhile, Ng’s mother Thniah Poh Choo, 52, said the family would seek legal redress over the incident.
