The metal pipe left the truck, pierced the Perodua Ativa windshield, and fell onto the front passenger seat

The scene depicted here could be from a horror movie, except that it takes place in reality, and therefore poses a very real risk to life and health. According to one videotapes posted to Facebook by Cass Cheng Sook Leng, a metal pipe fell from a truck in front of her vehicle in the next lane; this happened on January 13 at 1:42 p.m., according to the vehicle owner.

From dashcam footage, the metal tube appears to have come from the top of the truck and had plugged itself into the vehicle with the camera on impact.

From subsequent photos taken by the vehicle’s owner, the metal tube had penetrated the vehicle’s windshield and almost completely entered the passenger compartment, and the bonnet markings indicated that the metal pipe had entered the passenger compartment. contact with the bodywork for the first time before penetrating the windshield.

Fortunately, there was no one in the front passenger seat of this Ativa, which by then was almost completely occupied by the metal tube.

However, the vehicle owner noted that her dogs were in the car with her at the time. A search of coordinates shown on dashcam footage shows this happening near the Rawang (Selatan) intersection on the PLUS expressway, heading north.

Moving close to other vehicles on the highway, there seemed to be little room for the vehicle involved in this incident to avoid and the dashcam vehicle largely kept up with the traffic at the time. In any case, dash cam installed and activity helps keep a record of any problems that may occur, such as this one. It also helps have suitable storage media.
