"The police urge the public to come forward if they have any witnesses or own dashboard camera recordings of the accident," he said in a statement recently.

He added that witnesses can directly contact Inspector Muhamad Yusaiful Muhamat Basir, the Traffic Investigating Officer at the Ampang Jaya District Police Headquarters (IPD), at 011-13078348.
