A Malaysian man in his 20s was arrested on Sunday following a fatal accident in Klang, Selangor on Sunday (March 29).

The accident happened at about 11.40am along Jalan Raya Barat, about 300m away from the Klang police station.

Dashcam footage of the accident shows a grey Honda City overtaking both the camera car and a blue Perodua Myvi at high speed just after the entrance to MBDK @ Jalan Raya Barat — a local government office.

That manoeuvre brought him head-on with an oncoming motorcycle, which was seen attempting to make a last-minute attempt to avoid the car.

The impact from the collision sent the motorcyclist spinning through the air before landing hard on the rooftop of the Perodua. 

South Klang police chief Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Lim Jit Huey confirmed in a statement at around 9pm that the motorcyclist died on the spot. 

He said initial investigations found that a male driver in his 20s was driving dangerously at high speed. 

"The driver is believed to have overtaken several vehicles before entering the opposite lane and colliding with the victim's motorcycle," he added.
