KUANTAN: A lorry driver lost control of his vehicle before ploughing into several other vehicles at Batu 14 of Jalan Kuantan–Maran here today.
However, no injuries were reported in the 10.50am accident.
Kuantan police chief Assistant Commissioner Wan Mohd Zahari Wan Busu said the accident involved the lorry, a Honda sports utility vehicle (SUV), Toyota Hilux pick-up truck, an Isuzu truck and a vehicle transporter.
He said initial investigations revealed the SUV, pick-up truck, Isuzu truck and a lorry were moving slowly due to a traffic congestion caused by the transporter which was entering a junction on the left side of the road.
"Suddenly, a Nissan lorry travelling in the same direction crashed into the rear of another lorry in front of him. The vehicle then hit the Honda, Hilux and Isuzu truck," he said in a statement.
Wan Mohd Zahari said only the SUV, Hilux and Isuzu drivers have lodged police reports.
He urged the other three lorry drivers to come forward to assist investigations.
