JOHOR, MALAYSIA – A luxury car convoy from Singapore took an unexpected turn on Oct 29 when three Singapore-registered supercars collided in Johor resulting in significant damage to at least one of the vehicles.
According to Deputy Chief of Police District Kluang, Deputy Superintendent Nik Mohd Azmi Husin, the incident occurred around 9 a.m. as the three supercars, McLaren M4s, were traveling from Batu 4 towards Taman Seri Lambak.
“When they arrived at the scene, the front car slowed down to make a right turn, and the middle car also braked.
“However, the rear car lost control and collided with the middle car before it rammed into the car in front of it,” he said.
He mentioned that the case is being investigated in accordance with Rule 10 of the 1959 Road Traffic Rules (LN 166/59).
Images and videos circulating online depict the three McLarens in various states of damage, with one of the supercars bearing a severely damaged bumper and debris scattered on the ground.
The rear of a red car also exhibited visible dents.
The three vehicles involved in the collision were part of a convoy comprising six cars.
Fortunately, none of the drivers sustain any injuries.
According to Sinar Harian, the persons involved have been identified as Mr. Basil Wong, Mr. Matthew McGrory, and Mr. Marcus Luah.
They are now under investigation for failing to control a motor vehicle and causing an accident.
This incident occurred just two weeks after another accident involving Singaporeans and luxury cars in Kluang.
On 15 October, a Singaporean couple sustained injuries when their Porsche, part of a separate convoy, collided with a lamp post while traveling from Batu Pahat to Mersing.
The driver suffered a broken left leg and injuries to his hands and feet, while his wife sustained injuries to her hands and legs, as reported by Malaysian media.
