Car drags motorcycle after accident in Malaysia
On 1 Aug, a 50-year-old car driver accidentally reversed into a motorcycle on a road in Rawang, Selangor, Malaysia.
According to the Malaysian news outlet Oriental Daily, the driver then sped away fearing retaliation from a group of motorcyclists who had gathered to inspect the situation.
A viral 18-second video posted by X user @update11111 shows what had transpired.
In the clip, a black Honda CRV car can be seen speeding and dragging a motorcycle on what appears to be a highway.

Despite the shower of sparks from the friction, the driver showed no sign of stopping the vehicle.
Gombak District Police Chief Nor Arifin said in a statement that the incident occurred at around 1.20am on Thursday (1 August) en route from Rawang to Batu Tiga.
