Two drivers detained for allegedly blocking traffic to give way to supercar convoy

ISkandar Puteri, Aug 16 — Malaysian police have arrested two individuals accused of obstructing traffic to create a pathway for a convoy of luxury cars, according to deputy police chief Supt Saifullah Jaya. The men were apprehended by the Iskandar Puteri district's Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Division after a viral video on social media showed the incident.

The police claimed the two men acted as "marshals" by stopping vehicles to allow the supercar convoy to pass from Puteri Harbour towards Johor Bahru city center. The case is being investigated under Section 110 of the Road Transport Act 1987, which is punishable by a fine of up to RM1,000 and four summonses for non-compliance with vehicle specifications.

The supercars involved were seized for further action. Police warned the public against unauthorized convoy escorts obstructing traffic, emphasizing that such behavior puts themselves and other road users at risk.
