Police convoys have long been known to be a nuisance and occasionally a hazard on Malaysian roads, where they pose a danger to other motorists through reckless driving or forcing emergency vehicles like ambulances to give way to VIPs.
This time round, a police convoy was seen cutting across a double line and into the opposite lane while escorting two tow trucks carrying luxury vehicles allegedly belonging to VIPs.

In a dashcam video uploaded by Twitter user @jllmisai, it showed the dashcam owner driving on his lane while the opposite lane had a slight congestion.
Suddenly out of nowhere, the police convoy and tow trucks appear in front of the dashcam owner and were coming straight at him, forcing him to swerve to the side of the road to avoid a collision.
