The case is being probed under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for causing death by reckless or dangerous driving.

"I call upon all road users to be careful, be considerate and comply with traffic laws to prevent untoward incidents.

"School bus drivers, in particular, must ensure that the safety of students travelling in their vehicles is at an optimum level before continuing their journey," said Bahrin.

*Our condolences to the family for their loss.*
