Meanwhile, a Nissan Vanette van which the victim, Wah Han Keong, and his dad were in, was making its way from Taman Manir towards Kuala Terengganu.

"Upon arriving at the scene, the Volkswagen Golf GTI is believed to have lost control before skidding.

“It then crashed into a street lamp post in the middle of the road before entering the opposite lane and colliding with the Nissan Vanette," said Azli.
