A harrowing accident involving two MPVs recently occurred near the Kota Damansara exit on the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE), with the incident being captured on video and being shared widely on social media.
In the video, we can see the two vehicles involved – a Toyota Veloz and an Innova – driving behind the recording car on the highway, which had both yellow and white dotted lines. As the video progresses, the Innova is seen approaching the right side of the Veloz and getting a little too close for comfort.
Upon realising this, the Innova driver makes a sudden turn to the left but loses control of the vehicle, and in an attempt to correct the course, turns into and hits the Veloz. As a result, the Veloz is sent into the steel barriers, with the coming together also sending the Innova to the concrete barriers on the opposite side of the lane.
Base on observation, nampak kereta hitam tu keliru dengan temporary line warna kuning. Pastu gelabah bila dah rapat dengan kereta putih tu

Twitter user @farhanAhmad04 – the person who posted the video – claimed the Innova driver appeared to be confused by the yellow lines on the road, which are typically there to indicate when lanes are being shifted temporarily to make room for construction projects. It’s known that temporary markings in yellow override the permanent white markings in such areas.
A few users replying to the post questioned how the yellow lines were laid out and said they too would be confused by them. Meanwhile, one user questioned why the Innova driver attempted to overtake on the left lane of the highway. What’s your take on the incident? Share your thoughts with us in the comments below.

Forget about the marking lines, black car driver didn’t see the white car? Another day, another dumb driver. Pity the Veloz owner, new car already in the workshop
This is real 3rd world country Malaysia road standard. Well done JKR well done Plus. Well done all bangla professional road workers
Dont be racist moron who are the ones who give instructions on the road markings? What an idiot.
If 1 driver is confused, while everybody else knew. Blame that 1 driver la. You sound alike racist people.what if the driver is Chinese lady who are known to be weakest driver out of all female race here in Malaysia?
So you all discounting the the Innova driver might have been micro sleeping?
depends on ras, oren ras might be micro sleep, non oren confirmed drunk driving according to tiktokers
Typical Malaysia drivers that do not know how to look ahead, be aware of their surrounding and slow down when in doubt. Kaki berat know how to press accelerator only as if his/her father owns the road
Old wife jealous with new wife
It looked like it an intentional act by the Innova owner. If the driver was confused, he/she should slow down the vehicle and not cut into the Veloz’s path.
tido ? mata terpejam ? atau mata ke tempat lain ?
2 weeks ago I pass thru the section, I told my 24 years old son, why they make the yellow dotted like white line, they should make a continuous line so no overtake.
The yellow line is usually created during some side construction by blackening the white line. After a while, both lines will appear and this creates confusion for the drivers.
For example, there is a yellow-and-white line side by side that creates a big confusion for all Federal Highway drivers heading to PJ from KL (near RTM) that is not corrected for years. Yes, for years!!
The thing that needs to be noted is, why the highway management (or any authority) did not do anything to correct these lines.
As usual, some non-responsible staff that needs to look at this matter is sleeping but this time around the management or the top gun needs to take the responsibility of ensuring the lines are corrected and show a good example to their team.
The next question is when are they going to correct this.
Note: Please do not blame these drivers in this scenario since the road is not safe to drive for any vehicles due to confusion of both yellow and white lines that are both visible sides by side.
The main reason why autopilot won’t work here.
Teiir top guns tak lalu situ nak pergi balik kerja la bos, thats why la
Dash is already completed. When they are going to remove those barriers? I see no work done there anymore.
Thought he was playing burnout paradise, lmao

Two Toyota drivers with built-in right of way meet at the exit on the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE)…
Please put a heavy fine and jail on the innova driver. also suspend the driver license and make the driver re-take the driving license again !
I believe you should have your license suspended. Road markings are confusing. You should retake driving course as you seem as you like to breeze through stop signs without stopping.
It’s a mistake plain and simple. People should stop acting like they’re heavenly beings who don’t make mistakes. The root cause is the road markings.
Seems to me, there are multiple cause. Road markings is important.confusing road markings do causes issue. So highways maintenance hv done something wrong here.
The Innova driver too makes mistake. General rules is that overtake on the right. In other word the car on the right should have the right of ways first.
Thirdly, seeing now Innova goes out of control so easily raises a question if this car hv proper maintenance or the design is no good..
How is the Innova overtaking?
