A short-lived illegal street racing syndicate was shut down recently, following a police operation near Terminal Amanjaya in Ipoh. The “racing circuit” has been hosting races there on the weekends, attracting participants from as far as Penang.
During the 2am operation at Persiaran Meru 3, five men were arrested by the police for being involved in the race. The men, who were aged between 23 and 27 years, also had their modified vehicles impounded.
The vehicles included three Proton models (Wira, Waja, Saga), as well as a Honda and a Perodua Kancil. Besides the arrests, the operation also saw hundreds of spectators present at the scene being screened by police. A total of 154 vehicles were also checked by the police.
The screening conducted during the Perak traffic police and JPJ joint-operation, managed to reveal nine individuals with arrest warrants for failing to pay their outstanding summonses.
Ipoh deputy traffic chief Deputy Superintendent Mahiri Hussin told the News Straits Times that the police had acted on a tip-off, staking out the area before making their move. “Our investigations revealed that the illegal racing had been going on for the past two weeks,” he said.
Mahiri also detailed the simple mechanics of the illegal race – whoever was there would race each other. “Those who lose will have to pay for a full tank of petrol,” he added.
Mahiri also advised motorists not to partake in such races, as it endangers the lives of other road users as well as their own.

This is a big problem with the lazy people. Since everything in life is free, scholarships also free when you fail, jobs also available in Gomen despite being super incompetent and fail in exams, they tend not to have any goals to work hard and strife.
So, they resort to lumba haram and rempit to pass time instead of studying hard or striving hard to improve their lives.
When gomen can’t afford them anymore, GST naik to 10% then.
When they can’t keep the Proton survive, they impose more tax on foreign cars.
On a glimpse, all the P1/ P2/ T/ H & N cars. LOL
In the future we will become like Indonesia packed like sardins with useless and brainless people coz they focus so much on breeding on malam jumaat but did not provide them better education and job… End up everyday lepak in shopping centre, vaping, mengurat, buat seks rambang and if see Chinese rich then steal, rob and kill
FF for reals
The prize being a full tank of petrol??? Gee… i guess that really shows how expensive our petrol is nowadays… lol
