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 individuals were apprehended by police in Johor Bahru for obstructing traffic as they served as road "marshals" for a luxury car convoy. Iskandar Puteri deputy police chief Saifullah Jaya disclosed that the two men were detained yesterday following a viral video on Threads. According to Saifullah, the incident transpired around 6.16pm when a luxury car convoy was traveling from Puteri Harbour to the city center, while the two drivers intervened by halting vehicles to permit the convoy passage.
The case is currently under investigation under Section 110 of the Road Transport Act 1987, which governs obstruction and interference offenses with a potential fine of up to RM1,000. Additionally, four summonses were issued for various violations such as non-compliance with vehicle specifications. The vehicles involved in the convoy were subsequently seized for further examination.
Saifullah emphasized that unauthorized convoy escorts obstructing traffic not only endanger themselves but also other road users, and such actions will not be tolerated by the police.
