KUALA LUMPUR – A driver of a Ford Ranger, who was caught on dashcam driving recklessly and hitting a family of four riding on a motorcycle, was fined RM6,000 by the magistrates’ court here today. 

Magistrate Fatin Dayana Jalil meted out the fine on graphic designer Mohammad Harith Ismail, 22, who pleaded guilty to a charge of reckless driving. He paid the fine.

Harith was charged with recklessly driving the vehicle on the Besraya Highway, from the direction of Sg Besi towards Balakong here, at 12.30pm yesterday.

The charge, under Section 43(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987, provides for a maximum fine of RM10,000 and up to 12 months in jail upon conviction.

In his mitigation, Harith, who was unrepresented, said he did not commit the offence intentionally.

“I’m not from here and am not familiar with the road (at the location of the incident). I also didn’t run away or leave the victims there, but sent them to a hospital,” he said.

Yesterday, it was reported that a dashcam recording had gone viral on social media, showing a motorcycle ridden by two adults and two children being crushed by a vehicle that suddenly changed lanes. As a result of the police investigation, it was found that all the victims, aged between five and 34, were slightly injured and had received treatment at Serdang Hospital.

Deputy public prosecutor R. Harvind prosecuted. – December 13, 2023
