2 drivers held for blocking traffic for supercar convoy in JB
Iskandar Puteri deputy police chief Saifullah Jaya @ Yahaya says they will not compromise with those obstructing traffic without approval.
Two car drivers were arrested by police in Johor Bahru for obstructing traffic to allow a luxury car convoy to pass. The incident occurred at Bulatan Lebuh Kota Iskandar in Iskandar Puteri, and was captured on video, which went viral on social media. The two men were arrested yesterday, following the viral video that showed the event.
Police found that the supercar convoy was traveling from Puteri Harbour towards Johor Bahru city centre while the drivers obstructed vehicles, acting as unauthorised marshals. This action is considered obstruction and interference, and is punishable by up to RM1,000 in fines under Section 110 of the Road Transport Act 1987. Additionally, four summonses were issued for non-compliance with vehicle specifications.
The vehicles involved were seized for further legal action. Police emphasized that imposing unauthorised road blocks endangers both themselves and other road users.
