Suspects in delivery rider road rage case remanded

Following a viral social media video of a food delivery assaulted by three men and his motorcycle vandalised, police say the suspects are now in custody. In a media statement, Klang South District Police Chief Assistant Commissioner Cha Hoong Fong said the suspects at 6.30 p.m. yesterday.

The arrest was made by Department D7 of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Klang South District Police headquarters. “Police arrested three local males aged between 28 and 39 years, who work as car repossessors. All three suspects were found to have previous records for drug offences,” said AC Cha in the statement.

“An early urine test on the main suspect, aged 39, was found positive for methamphetamine,” he added. A request for remand has been forwarded to the Klang Magistrate’s Court under Section 117 of the Penal Code while an investigation paper has been opened by South Klang police Narcotics Department under Section 15(1)(a) of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952.

First making the rounds yesterday, the video showed the male suspect assaulting the 21-year old food delivery rider. It is understood the incident stemmed from a feeling of dissatisfaction in the suspect after the car he was driving was honked at by the rider.

    perhaps motorcyclist should not honk as they like?
    driving is already stressful in KL, but these motorcyclist honk for every little thing. You turn your signal light, they already honk you from 500m away.

      You have never ride a bike i your life right? They honk because when you turn your signal light is because the average Malaysian will never notice a motorcycle is going next to them. That is why they honk to get your attention. I ride & drive so I understand.If you switch lane without noticing them, what will happen, they will feel panic slam the brake, and you will just “angkat tangan”.

    I wont condone violence,but today I honk a food rider for suddenly riding straight at me from a corner.
    The idiotic rider started to swear threatening words,alto my intention is to avoid collision.
    PDRM should station their officers at major traffic junctions and see the hanky panky by these riders.
    No one has anymore respect for 80% of these riders.Only 20% riders follow undang.The rest r simply a huge eyesore.

    when i signal, motor rider speedup and hooooooorn all the way even so far away. 90% riders horn. 10% educated one will wait patiently for few sec n let new driver or P license driver change their lane. sometimes i really hope no motor on the street. really hard for P license driver like us to drive. cars don’t let u change your lane even u signal then motor keeps horning non stop.

      ya, you try use turn signal to change lane, those stupid motobikes will honk you like you murdered their mom. Like someone commented earlier, eventho you already use signal from far far away. still kena honk.

  • I don’t get how anyone can defend the use of violence under any circumstance to deal with driving conflicts. I hope the idiots get chucked in jail and made an example of.

  • I feel like hitting those annoying bikers too. Too often they stare at drivers who change lanes even when signals have been turned on way way beforehand
