A TEENAGE couple were detained today at a house in Balok, Kuantan, for reckless driving after a clip of their alleged “wheelie” stunt went viral on social media yesterday.

Kuantan police chief Wan Mohd Zahari Wan Busu said both 17-year-olds were detained by a team from the Kuantan Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Division between 11.30am and 2.30pm.

“Preliminary investigations revealed the motorcycle belongs to the mother of the teenage boy and had five previous summonses. Both suspects were taken to the Kuantan traffic police station for investigations under section 42(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987,” he said.

The minute-long video showed a male rider with a female passenger on a white Honda EX-5 motorcycle doing a “wheelie” along Jalan Chendor heading to Kemaman, Terengganu. – Bernama, May 1, 2023.
