KINABATANGAN: The company that owns the lorry which crashed into the gate of Kampung Sukau in Sukau, near here, should pay for the repair, said Sabah Commercial Vehicle Licensing Board Chairman Vivian Wong.“Based on the report I received, the incident was caused by the driver’s negligence. He was unaware that the lorry’s dump had lifted on its own, causing it to hit the gate,” said Vivian.

Wong, who is also Sandakan Member of Parliament, said investigations found that the lorry involved in the incident has an active “A” Carrier Licence under the Sabah LPKP, owned by a company with a depot address in Bukit Garam, Kinabatangan, and it operates throughout Sabah and Labuan.“I have asked for a review of the records of the driver and the vehicle involved to determine if there were previous accidents.
