The senior police officer who rammed into 17-year-old Zaharif Affendi Zamrie with his car last year, was travelling at 90.9kph at the time of the collision.
The Ipoh High Court was told that data from the vehicle’s ABS and stability control systems showed the brake pedal was not pressed, with the accelerator at maximum during the incident.
🧵1
“The steering angle was at -2.5 degrees. The accelerator was at a maximum, causing the brake assist to not operate due to the acceleration.
“If the driver in this case suddenly applied the brakes, the ABS data would have been recorded,” a Perodua technical assistant said.

He added that the pre-collision brake alerts the driver of a potential vehicle or pedestrian in front, while brake assist activates if a collision is imminent.
However, brake assist is disabled if the driver overrides the system by swerving, braking, or accelerating.
A new analysis of acne creams and cleansers found that dozens of products, including popular brands like Proactiv and Clearasil, contain chemical linked to cancer.
Researchers tested over 100 benzoyl peroxide products and found ⅓ were contaminated with high levels of benzene.
🧵1
The analysis found Proactiv contained 18 times the amount of benzene allowed in US drugs, while a CVS brand face wash had 13 times the US FDA's safety limit.
The findings support an earlier controversial study, increasing pressure on the FDA to address the products' safety.

“The results presented here suggest that a substantial portion of the BPO acne treatment market currently contains unacceptably high levels of benzene in products sitting on the shelf,” the study by Valisure wrote.
The issue was initially uncovered in another earlier analysis, prompting the lab to file a petition with the FDA to recall those it had found with high levels of benzene.
Fugitive Jho Low reportedly transferred US$406,000 to Kim Kardashian and her former partner Kris Humphries, while Pharrell Williams received US$2,025,000.
These payments were made using funds from 1MDB through his shell company, Good Star Ltd, a witness testified today.
According to financial fraud investigator Richard Templeman, Low misappropriated US$1.03 billion from 1MDB's JV with PetroSaudi Limited and transferred the funds to Good Star.
"These were used for the personal benefit of the co-conspirators and their associates."

Good Star remitted US$13.5 million to a Riyad Bank account under the names of Prince Faisal and Prince Saud in two tranches: US$12 million and US$1.5 million.
"After receiving the US$12 million, US$10 million was transferred from the Al-Saud account to Najib Razak."
