Default Lorry driver watching porn causes 2 deaths
JOHOR BARU - Three young children lost their parents in a road accident allegedly caused by a lorry driver watching a pornographic video while driving on the Jalan Pontian-Johor Baru stretch yesterday morning.

K. Vijaya, 32, and his wife, S. Helmatha, 28, were killed instantly while another motorcyclist was seriously injured in the accident involving six vehicles.

Johor Baru North police chief Assistant Commissioner Ruslan Hassan said investigations showed the driver of the sand-laden lorry was watching pornography on his LCD video player when the accident occurred at 10am.

He said the 41-year-old lorry driver was detained. "The lorry has a LCD screen and we are investigating a claim that he was watching pornography while behind the wheel."

He said the driver lost control of the lorry, causing the pile-up which resulted in a twohour traffic jam.

The couple, from Kampung Nesa, Kangkar Pulai, had three children, aged 7, 9 and 11. A relative, C. Letchumanan, 65, said Vijaya was sending his wife to work at a saree shop in Taman Tampoi Indah at the time.

Vijaya worked in Singapore.
