Cops arrest road bully for reckless driving

KUALA LUMPUR – A road bully has been arrested on suspicion of driving a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) recklessly between KM25.1 and KM27.5 of the Karak Highway heading to Genting Sempah, Pahang yesterday.

Gombak district police chief Zainal Mohamed Mohamed said the man, 43, was arrested at the grounds of the Gombak district police headquarters Traffic Investigation and Legal Division at 2pm.

“The driver took a urine test at the Narcotics Division, which turned out to be negative. He was also taken to the Selayang Hospital for a blood sample for an alcohol test,” he said in a statement last night.

He said the driver will be taken to the Selayang Magistrates’ Court tomorrow for a remand order to facilitate investigations under Section 42(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for reckless and dangerous driving.

A video depicting an MPV weaving in and out of traffic dangerously in an attempt to get ahead of traffic went viral on social media yesterday. – Bernama, May 2, 2022
