TWO female motorcyclists who were caught on video performing dangerous stunts while riding on their bikes on the North-South Expressway, were arrested by the police last night.

Muallim district police chief Mohd Hasni Mohd Nasir said that the two suspects surrendered to the Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Division at the Muallim district police headquarters at 9.10pm.

He said that they were successfully tracked down by the police after a 45-second video, showing the two motorcyclists doing dangerous stunts, went viral on social media yesterday.

“Preliminary investigations found that their actions were recorded at KM375.9 northbound on Sunday and that the riders, aged 18 and 21, were riding from Kuala Lumpur to Ipoh,” he said in a statement today.

He said when they arrived at the Behrang rest and service area, the two suspects did a “Superman” act as they were zig-zagging between moving vehicles.

Hasni said further checks found both suspects were from Pulau Indah in Selangor, with one working as an e-commerce platform operator and the other as a babysitter. Both had no valid motor vehicle licence and no criminal record.

“They were issued summonses for not having a valid licence, and the case is being investigated under section 42(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987,” he said. – Bernama, July 14, 2023.
