    The law should change for those who causes death by speeding. The law has been too kind to speedsters for a long time.

    This person said he sped up to make the Saab (Black Car) slow down. He lied. He sped up to trap him behind another motorist. He simply cannot tolerate anyone speeding pass him and owning a AmG 43, he wanted to unleash the horsepower and fxxxk the black car over. The Saab avoided the front motorist and sideswiped the Merc. This person is also another to be prosecuted severely; not withstanding the fact, that when the Saab hit him, the driver looked at the rear view mirror and wondered what did he hit. By the time he looked straight again, it was too late. This Merc is guilty. If you looked at the video carefully, when the merc power up to force the Saab (black car) , this Saab driver noticed a motorist in front and he did swerved to avoid hitting this front motorist; despite driving at fast speed. The actual cause of the people’s death is this merc driver. It is common sense, to look in the mirror what did you hit. It is this distraction that took the Saab’s driver eyes off the road. Thus, this Merc driver attributed to this terrible accident. He deregistered his vehicle immediately the following day and other netizens have surfaced his other intimidating and arrogant road behaviors. If he had allowed the black Saab to overtake, he may have kept his eyes on the road and thus, this disaster may not incur the loss of lives. He lied without conscience and does not repent. Yet, he is trying to lie his way out when other moans for their family member’s death. Netizens should disclose who he is. Everything is under wrapped for the moment from the authorities pending investigation. I feel very sorry for the lost ones and their family and yet I am angry to see this Merc driver trying to get away and not be implicated for his vicious action. People died. How are their families going to live through this sudden loss. Yet, we have a liar who doesn’t own up for his actions and defending his innocent stance.

    It has become the talk of the town.
    Many people feel sad and shock over this fatal accident which took two lives and causing injuries to six people.
    I could understand how the parents feel for the sudden and forever lost of their beloved teenage daughter. As the days goes by grief increases.
    Such incident can be totally avoided if drivers play their part to value others lives and safety as their own.
    I don't know what is penalty for this offence.
    However I think govt should look into matter seriously to introduce stiffer penalties to prevent such matter from happening.
    Time has changed and people have changed and the laws has to be changed according to time and circumstances. So Upgrade please!
    May Afifah Munirah rest in peace.
    Hopefully Afifah family members will stay strong to provide support each during this difficult period.
    May the fond memories of Afifah lives on in the memory of family members and relatives.
    May the death of Afifah bring about changes in law protecting all road users. By this it will add value to Afifah passing.
    By the way, any MP present to extend their condolences to the family of the demised?
