Just when you thought Abang Botak’s 12-month jail sentence would have taught everyone a lesson on road rage, Malaysian drivers strike again.
Malaysia’s latest road bullying viral phenomenon comes in the form of 2 males in a blue Honda Civic, in footage captured along the Jalan Firma road from Perling heading towards the Pasir Gudang Highway, Johor.
