04 Dec 2025: A tragic scene unfolded at the Jalan Miri Bypass when a heavy articulated truck, transported on a trailer lorry, lurched forward and crushed the crew cab, killing the driver and his assistant on the spot on 3 Dec 2025. Bomba teams waited for a crane to move the massive machine before recovering the bodies. Police are now investigating the cause.

Very sad. A preventable accident if only those müds studied Newton's laws of motion

Newton's laws of motion are three fundamental principles that describe how objects move in relation to the forces acting on them. They state that an object at rest stays at rest, the force acting on an object equals its mass times its acceleration, and for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

How does this law apply to this accident?

I believe this situation is related to the 2nd law of motion which deals with momentum. If the heavy truck is properly anchored onto the trailer lorry, all forces and mass would be merged into a single object. But it was not the case, hence in physics they behave as two different objects. Trailer lorry acceleration is reduced, but the force acting on heavy truck was not reduced because it is a separate object. Makes sense or not har?

Found this ah neh video to illustrate.

You very good at sianing. No wonder many chiobus want to sleep with you.

KNN not sianing!! I speak truth here (which is something I rarely do) It's law of motion as it relates to momentum over time. Chiobus sleep with me because I am charming and gorgeous

Yes the resemblance is there. but I have more hair on my head. And more white hair than him.
