The tragic outing occurred at the 91st kilometre of the Johor Baru-Malacca road in Rengit at 11.00p.m on Saturday.

Tee's sister Kim Moi, 35, suffered serious injuries and has been warded at the Sultanah Aminah Hospital in Johor Baru. The truck driver was unhurt.
Tee's brother-in-law, Desmond Toh, who was travelling ahead with his family in another car, said they were on their way to Muar to the wedding and had stopped in Pontian far dinner.
"Everybody was happy and we enjoyed our dinner. I did not expect it would be our last dinner with them," said Toh, 42, a salesman from Taman Johor Jaya in Johor Baru.
Toh said he heard a loud crash behind him while driving his car.
He said he looked behind but could not see the ill-fated car.
I stopped and returned to the place and was shocked to see that the car had been dragged into a drain by the roadside," he said.
Toh said he could not do much as the car doors were totally wrecked.
