Did a highway area experience flash floods recently?

 A VIDEO has gone viral on social media of a flash flood that supposedly happened on the East Coast Highway (LPT) 2 on Sunday (Dec 18).

Is the video really of the LPT 2?

Verdict:

TRUE

Over most of Sunday, numerous videos popped up on the social media app TikTok posted by worried drivers as they tried to navigate their way through the yellow-brown water that covered a section of the LPT 2 in Terengganu at about KM393, from the direction of Ajil to Kuantan.

Hulu Terengganu OCPD Deputy Supt Hasmeera Hassan said the incident that happened at about 11am on Sunday was believed to be caused by the overflow of water from the slope near the location.

The flash flood ended almost as fast as it started as DSP Hasmeera said it cleared up by 12.30pm, adding that no accidents or unwanted incidents occurred due to the incident.

"There is no road closure and all types of vehicles can still pass in both directions," he said in a statement on Sunday.

According to DSP Hasmeera, the management of LPT 2 was currently conducting assessment and monitoring work at the scene. - Star
