Another driver hit your car in Wangsa Maju and you are not sure what to do.
Car accident injury claims covers the general rules for a driver or passenger hurt by another driver’s carelessness. Wangsa Maju’s own risk comes from its position on the busy MRR2 and DUKE commuter corridor.
The roads behind a Wangsa Maju car accident
Jalan Genting Klang, the MRR2, DUKE and AKLEH all run through Wangsa Maju, carrying heavy daily commuter traffic. Ramps and side roads feed these routes closely together. Drivers are often crossing several lanes of moving traffic in a short distance.
A typical car accident in Wangsa Maju
A car makes a right turn across a DUKE on-ramp from a side road. It misjudges the gap in fast-moving traffic. It is struck side-on.
Turns like this one are a common setting for a Wangsa Maju car crash. Ramp traffic often moves faster than a driver waiting at a side junction expects.
Save your footage of the turn
A dashcam evidence recording of the junction shows how fast the ramp traffic was moving. It also shows how much of a gap the turning car had.
This usually settles a dispute like this one. Copy the footage off your dashcam the same day if you can.
Your car damage and your injury claim run separately
The other driver’s insurer pays your injury claim once fault is established.[1] Your car’s own damage is separate, under the optional comprehensive part of a policy.[2]
Claiming for your own vehicle damage and your no-claim discount and a claim explain how that second claim works.

Common questions
I was hit turning across traffic near a DUKE ramp in Wangsa Maju. Who is usually at fault?
A driver turning across oncoming or ramp traffic generally carries more of the fault if they misjudged the gap, but the full picture depends on the other car's speed and position too. Dashcam footage of the turn is often decisive.
Where do Wangsa Maju car accident victims get their medical report?
Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL) on Jalan Pahang is the government hospital most commonly used for a specialist report after a Wangsa Maju crash.
Is the MRR2 in Wangsa Maju as congested as it is in Setapak?
Both areas sit on the same MRR2 and DUKE corridor, so congestion and the crash patterns that come with it are broadly similar along this stretch.
Can I claim if I was a passenger in a car hit near a DUKE ramp?
Yes, a passenger's claim runs against whichever driver was at fault, whether that is the other car or the one you were travelling in.
