KUANTAN:
Police are investigating a viral video showing a group of vehicle owners allegedly driving dangerously along a road bend at Genting Highlands.

Bentong police chief Zaiham Kahar said they received an eight-minute and 23-second video clip of the incident through Facebook Messenger yesterday.

“Police have opened an investigation paper and the case is being investigated under Section 42 of the Road Transport Act 1987 for reckless and dangerous driving,” he said in a statement today.

Zaiham said strict action will be taken against offenders, and urged witnesses to assist in the investigation.

“Police will conduct integrated operations in the area, especially on weekends and public holidays, as we have received reports and complaints that the location is frequently used by vehicle owners for gatherings and activities that disrupt public order and road users,” he said.
