      Middle lane hogging is an epidemic problem in Malaysia. But in the case of this accident, it is obvious from the dashcam recording that the Vios driver was driving recklessly and appears to be racing with the Mazda CX5 driver. Both vehicles were traveling excessively faster than the other vehicles on the bridge. The Vios driver weaved to the left at high speed between the Wira in the middle lane and the dashcam vehicle in the left lane, and then tried to turn back to the middle lane but oversteered and veered toward the CX5. The front right of the Vios hit the back left of the CX5, causing the CX5 to veer to the left, heading towards the side of the bridge. At the same time, the Vios flipped the CX5 upside down and cause the CX5 to spin anti clockwise such that the front of the CX5 was facing oncoming traffic (you can see the CX5’s headlights shining into the dashcam). The right side of the upside down CX5 hit the bridge guardrail, and due to the centre of gravity of the CX5 being higher since the vehicle was upside down, the momentum of the CX5 caused it to roll over the guardrail and fall into the sea. If the CX5 had not rolled over in the first place, it probably wouldn’t have rolled over the guardrail.

      I agree with Anonymous_1540348819.  It is high time the police and JPJ take action against road hoggers.  These drivers are a hazard to other drivers.

      Yes, we should.respect Moey's family's wishes. Those images should not have been shared in the first instance. But.since they are already in cyber space, we can.do our part by making sure the pics & video end with ua.

      If anyone receives the picture, erase it.  Do not forward to friends or groups.  This is not something you want to parade around.  Have some respect for the dead and for the family.
