## Allegedly raced with brother on road

Previously, it was reported that the 19-year-old was [racing with his 22-year-old brother](https://weirdkaya.com/19yo-mercedes-driver-arrested-for-allegedly-racing-with-another-driver-that-led-to-5-vehicle-crash-in-johor/), who was behind the wheel of a BMW 530e.
