Accident Again....this time 2 at same time

On my way to my office from town, not far from Nyabau traffic light, after the SM Teknik school, saw 2 accidents happen on the same road. not far from each other. About 10 meters. The first accident I saw was a Viva or Kancil over turn and landed in the middle drain. Even the drain is not made from concrete, but the roof of the car is badly damaged. Guest the driver or passenger must be in serious pain. And not far from the 1st accident, saw another accident. A Myvi hit the middle of the road. Must be hit the tree. But the driver is lucky as his car just damage from the front part only.

Why there accident of the same road? Because of the slippery road cause by the oil palm tanker yesterday about 5 p.m. Yesterday late afternoon, the spot at the traffic light, an oil palm tanker hit another oil palm tanker from behind. So the impact cause the oil palm split out from the tanker. And worst still that the tanker is full and on the way to oil palm refinery. Because of it, the streach of road from the traffic light until the junction to Daiken(if drive up to LNG), and from traffic light until the junction to Kidorung Telekom (if drive down to town) is slippery. And worst still, there not even a sigh board that show slippery road and to remind others driver about the danger of the road. Just be careful when drive the Kidurong Road. 


 
The first accident happen. Notice the car upside down and badly dented. 

People is looking and trying to help the driver, while waiting for ambulance. 



Second accident. Lucky for this driver.

Accident at Miri - Bintulu Highway


Yesterday on my way back from my office about 6pm, I saw a trailer - 40 footer trailer skidded on the road. The head of the trailer was on the side of the road, while the body of the trailer was across the road which is blocking the whole road. it took about 20 min for the driver to move the trailer on the position on the road again so he driver will not block the road. 

Luckily no accident happen. In Bintulu most of the accident happen involved trailer and lorry. Sometime, accidents can happen about 7 to 10 times a day or more in same road especially the Kidurong road when it raining time.
