Four injured in Bukit Sentosa bus crash; police cite brake failure
Hulu Selangor police chief Superintendent Ibrahim Husin said the incident occurred about 11.30am.
He said the 57-year-old driver was left unharmed, adding that there were only three passengers, aged 9, 17 and 38, at the time.
"The bus, travelling from the Serendah KTM station to Bukit Sentosa, had just picked up the passengers at the Serendah government health clinic bus stop when the driver lost control at a bend," he said in a statement.
Initial investigations suggest the bus experienced a brake failure before skidding and flipping onto its left side.
All three passengers were taken to Selayang Hospital for treatment.
The case is being investigated under Section 42(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for reckless and dangerous driving, which carries a penalty of up to five years in jail and a maximum fine of RM15,000, upon conviction.
Police are urging members of the public with information on the incident to come forward and assist with the investigation.
