Miracle escape: The driver of this Proton Iswara that plunged from the sixth floor of Mutiara Heights multi-storey car park in Jelutong, Penang, lived to tell about the incident. Clerk Jenny Tan escaped with only a broken arm. — NG AH BAK / The Star |
Clerk Jenny Tan, who broke her left arm, was said to have been negotiating a sharp turn at her flat's car park at about 8.15am yesterday when she lost control of the vehicle and rammed it into a wall. The car landed on its top, with both the front and rear badly damaged.
Tan's 32-year-old husband, who declined to be named, said his wife could have accidentally stepped on the accelerator or the brakes might have failed.
A housewife said she was on her way home after a morning walk when she suddenly heard a loud crash.

In September last year, a 34-year-old woman and her 10-year-old son survived when their car plunged from a three-storey car park, also in Jelutong.
