According to The Star, the driver had lost control of his vehicle and crashed down the hill-slope. Fortunately, the driver managed to escape from the vehicle before it burst into flames, so no

Perodua Alza missed exit, cuts through line at an unfruitful attempt

We’ve seen it often, a car missing the exit but insisted on attempting to reach said exit despite the dangerous situation around them. As is seen in this video of a Perodua Alza trying to reach the Subang Jaya exit from the middle lane of the highway. Suffice to say that though the highway is congested, this manoeuvre did not end well. Not only was the Alza holding up traffic on both lanes, but the MPV also caused massive injuries to an unsuspecting motorcyclist. And it didn’t end there, another

While dealers have braced for the impact of the Movement Control Order (MCO), the practically zero sales which leads to higher inventories, poor consumer sentiments on the economy, and high fixed operational cost are taking their toll.

Do you know how much are you losing on your car every month? GoCar Subs has a message for you

The actual cost of owning a car is a lot higher than just your monthly instalments, and we’re not talking about insurance or maintenance, itself already a big chunk of a car’s total ownership cost. Beyond maintenance, depreciation is the biggest ‘cost’ for a car owner. However, very few see it that way because it’s not something that you feel until you have to sell your car. It’s like losing money on stocks; it’s paper loss until you actually sell it, which you have to at some point. Remember th
