We’ve all seen it, someone flouting the law and getting away with, especially when it comes to road users on Malaysian highways, more so when it comes to abusing the emergency lane. But sometimes, karma does indeed strike back, as a highway user found out while using the emergency lane to cut a long queue of Hari Raya holiday traffic.
In the TikTok video, taken from a large vehicle queueing up in a long line of traffic, a white Proton X70 is seen making its way along the highway in the emergency lane. Unbeknownst to the offending driver, directly in front of the heavy vehicle is a police highway patrol car.

The Proton X70 merrily zips past on the left, and the patrol car immediately pulls out, switching on the light bar and giving chase to the emergency lane abuser. Sometimes, there is such a thing and instant retribution and justice for wrong doers, more especially those who blatantly break the law whilst other road users obey in the interest of the common good.
Malaysian police have implemented a strict enforcement policy during the Hari Raya Puasa period, cracking down on road users misbehaving. Aside from the usual speed traps and road blocks, police are also employing drones to identify and apprehend queue jumpers, as well as GoPro cameras for surveillance and detection of offences.

Good!! Terminate his driver license. Send him back to driving school and resit the test. 10 years probation.
Some people especially those driving NEW or more EXPENSIVE cars can ‘lansi’ others. Who cares?
Don’t JUST do that.Wallop him well….I know a place where this can be done
Kdg2 betul emergency..baby sudah nangis 1jam.. susu habis atau salah makan kt RnR b4..sudah terkuncit dlm sluar..dlm kete sdh bau maa..
Emergency lane is not for YOUR emergency, it is to be clear for emergency vehicles to use in getting there fast.
Our north south highway should be 6 lanes from sg petani to jb 15 years ago.
Won’t make a difference. Fellas from the left will cut to the right, fellas from right will cut all the way to the left, and we’ll be left with the same mess. IMO.
So to those that question our enforcement authorities, don’t question anymore or else insta karma retribution onto you. DREDD AGREES
it’s always a joy to see this offenders get caught.
Got Saman or polis got ‘kopi money’
Regardless if they do it too often it will hit their pockets; saman or kopi eitherways they will cry. So I’m all for it.
Not during festival season only. It happened everywhere every minutes! Strict enforcement is very important. I noticed it many times, traffic police just pretend did not see it!
You ‘think’ they don’t see you, ohh but they do…

For you, karma comes later but at a big pain.
Malaysia always do this kinda thing during festival, they forgot to enforce something that took so many lives away every year. I still can see a lot motorcyclist drive outside the motor lane on federal highway and you can still see those motorbikes hanging around those road with the ban signboard, with the police doing the same thing as well and do nothing behind them. When traffic light jam, they drove like no tomorrow hovering at high speed in between lanes and prohibited vehicles to change lane. Always horn and kick the car for changing lane like the middle of the lane is official own by them. Please enforce the law to keep the road safe rather than buying gopro and only catching car…
Enforcement should be unannounced,all year round,no tip off..
All these enforcement during Raya,CNY,Deepavali is not wrong but what about other days?
If a thief is coming to rob you tonight,is he going to announce it besarbesaran? The element of surprise should be a key factor when nabbing those speedy gonzalez and zigzag specialist.

Changing lane without signalling is those will be kicked by bikers…if you properly signal and switch lane, the bikers will not bother u. Means car drivers are alot of idiots
If this is your opinion then it simply means you either don’t drive a car or you hardly drive at all. Ask any car drivers and they’d have numerous stories of encounters with idiotic, inconsiderate and reckless motorcycle riders who not only pose a danger to themselves but also to other road users. These riders often a times react angrily when they’re honked at to move out of the way when they’re occupying one full lane and moving at a speed like their father owns the road, the best part is the lane they’re fully occupying isn’t the slow lane, it’s the fast lane. I have personally encountered a rider who was occupying the fast lane while moving slow, I honked at him numerous times but he didn’t even seem to notice. When I finally overtook him I again honked at him and this time he heard and guess what, he had earphones on that’s why he didn’t hear me honking earlier.

Totally agreed with your statement. Why is that this kind of cubchai’ers are so much powerful to do as what they like? Just bcoz they are on high speed they think its the car drivers responsibility of their safety.
Typical J on the road
Instead of catching these cars, government should be Kena penalty by making a 2 lane highway. People are laughing at MY. A 2 lane highway? Wtf??
In the Aussie Outbacks, highways are single lane. So? Are people laughing at Aussies?

Summon the offender heavily, suspend the driving licence for 5 years..and make the driver wait 5 hours at the nearest police station before releasing to continue the journey …it’s justice to law abiding citizens…PDRM good job for going after the culprit…
In the 1st place …
Please do something to multiple summons offenders. How was is possible that a person with 56 OUTSTANDING summonses were not taken action by the authorities?
To me, all these Drones, Rock Blocks, Speed Traps etc etc are merely WAYANG aka DRAMA jerrr
The vehicles they used some of them indeed a luxury type but the mind set iof the driver does not showed some luxurious behaviour..yes this type of ‘makhluk’ do need to be an examplary to other offenders as well..
They have emergency case, is their choice to get summon or not, we don’t have to provoke them by blocking them, you are not the police, let the police do their job. Be cool and relax.
I think minister also not special. Just because the in power, they can abuse their power using authority to cut lane and get to their destination on time.
Why not leave leave early if worry will late.
The US President should take your advice and make do without all that convoy escort or armoured Beast. He should just use the public transport then.

What is actually causing the traffic snarl when too many vehicles on the road:
1. Insufficient toll booth create the mess. Why can’t the highway operator add more toll booths to speed up the passing?
2. Vehicle breakdown and block the road. Find ways to clear the vehicle fast. The highway operator should have helpers in motorcycle to reach the vehicles and push to side.
3. Heavy vehicle must be banned during high traffic flow. The main reason they slowdown speed is when going uphill. Actually highways must not have roads going uphill. When designing roads, must level the roads or make tunnels. Highway concessionary are the cause of it. They should be forced to divert road away from existing hills or make tunnels.
4. Vehicle to have minimum speed on highways during high traffic flow.
5. RnR exits must cater for high traffic flow. More parking or multi level parking to be created to eliminate cars want to enter RnR doesn’t block the highway lane.
