"Apad will never compromise on any offence of dangerous driving of land public transport vehicles causing accidents. This incident is deeply regrettable," the agency said, adding that preliminary investigations into the 14-vehicle crash revealed that the trailer had a Class C carrier licence.
"Apad takes the issue of public safety seriously...and is working with the related agencies to obtain relevant reports before taking any further action on the operating company," it added. - Bernama
