@ceoofmarking Terima kasih kepada semua kenderaan yang memperlahankan kenderaan. Saya cuba buat sebaik mungkin untuk alihkan serpihan tayar pecah… tak mampu untuk tinggalkan untuk kenderaan yang melanggarnya. Jika dibiarkan pasti akan berlaku kemalangan ataupun kerosakkan kenderaan. #dyp #fyp #fypvira #ceoofmarking #faderalhighway #brotherhoodmalaysia #keelat #brotherhoodsubangbestari #tayarpecah ♬ Suci Di Mana Kini Kau Berada – Rasyid
