A 39-YEAR-old woman was killed after losing control of her car and crashing into a van along Kilometre 4 of Jalan Skudai, near Pantai Lido, early Monday morning.

Johor Bahru Selatan District Police Chief Assistant Commissioner Raub Selamat said the incident occurred at approximately 6.45am and involved a Perodua Bezza driven by the victim and a van driven by a 60-year-old man.
