Penang freak storm: Architect: force that hit Lim’s car would crush anything

GEORGE TOWN: What kind of force shears open a road and drives a car some six metres into the ground? According to an engineering expert, the force that hit the Honda City driven by Lim Chin Aik was equal to having seven buses travelling at 130kph hitting him – simultaneously.

The full capacity of each stage bus is 60 passengers and the driver.
