Owner Review: My Proton Perdana 2.4 - smooth, spacious, but underpowered?
244
It’s been drilled into our heads since before we were able to drive to always give way to emergency vehicles like ambulances and fire trucks. But there are still some people who ignore these rules like the driver of this Proton Wira in the video.
The video was uploaded by firefighter Mohd Ridzwan Shah on TikTok last Sunday. He accompanied the video with a message asking road users to give their cooperation when they hear emergency sirens.
In the incident that was believed to have happened at an intersection in Jalan Bakar Batu, Johor Bahru, the fire truck could be seen approaching a traffic light with its sirens blaring and they even honked to request cars to make way for them.
While the rest of the cars moved aside, the black Proton Wira could be seen reversing before cutting in front of the fire truck. Their progress was further hindered at the busy intersection as the Wira driver hesitated to cross.
But that’s not the end of it yet - the Wira continued to obstruct the fire truck’s progress through traffic. Right before the end of the video, the Wira managed to weave ahead of the traffic leaving the fire truck stuck in its wake.
The video has gained over 2.7 million views on TikTok since it was posted. Most were outraged over the Wira’s actions while some were kind enough to give the driver the benefit of a doubt that perhaps he was also experiencing an emergency.
Either way, it is against the law to obstruct emergency vehicles on the road. If you were to block a vehicle responding to an emergency (ie, when the siren and strobe lights are on), you may be charged under Section 53 of the Road Transport Act 1987.
The penalty is a jail term of up to 6 months and/or a fine of up to RM 2,000. There is also the possibility to have your driver’s license suspended or revoked under JPJ’s Kejara Demerit Points System.

Which brand have a better after sales service? Hey, knowledgeable people of this forum. I want to own a car for around 90K. What I’m concerned about is Which brand have a better after sales service? Because one of my friends bought a Proton, and he had to wait for parts sometimes. Now I‘m interested in Perodua/Honda/Toyota/Kia/Nissan. How about their parts, after sales service? good enough?
