Malaysian officer at JB checkpoint gets some easy money from drivers who like to take shortcuts

TL;DR – A video uploaded on SGRV shows a Malaysian traffic enforcer casually strolling along the long queue of cars at the JB checkpoint and collecting what looks like money from cars travelling on the motorcycle lane. Now, that's easy money!

We all like to take shortcuts now and then. I'm guilty of it myself occasionally.

There are some shortcuts in life one should never take.

This is one of them. OR IS IT?

Watch the 42-second video and make that decision for yourself.

What happened?

If you can't see, the empty left lane is for motorcycles.

The right lane is obviously for cars.

Along comes a car travelling on the motorcycle lane. Uh oh!

The officer walks up to the vehicle's window, sticks his hand in, takes something and goes on his merry way.

No words needed. Their relationship transcends the spoken word.

He does the same thing with another car, and we can have a closer look at what's being passed to him.

Just some calculations

Let's say if it was 50 RM. Paying a 15 SGD fine is okay to skip the queue, no?

Even if it's 100 RM, that's like 30 bucks to escape a long wait time.

Hmm.

  • Far Cry: A journey over two decades (PART ONE)

    I first came across the first-ever Far Cry game in the now-popular series back in 2004, the year of its launch. I was eight and wandering around the “Toys & Games” section in a department store (I believe it was Takashimaya) and the cover caught my eye. I’ve always been drawn towards First-person Shooter (FPS) games, and I thought I’d give it a try. Thus, I got my parents to buy it for me, and the second we got home, I loaded it up. Back in the day, CDs were still very much the norm, an

    Godzilla Minus One: Surprisingly emotional and poignant

    When one thinks of Godzilla movies, one imagines an oversized amphibious dinosaur generating a terrifying heat ray from its mouth and fighting with other oversized monsters. Meh, nothing special, right? Wrong. Here’s why Godzilla Minus One should be an action movie you should definitely catch. In this version, the timeless clash between monster and man is once again set against the tumultuous backdrop of post-war Japan. But, unlike typical action films that dive headfirst into destruction a

    Challenging myself to a week without coffee or sweetened drinks

    Sometimes, the key to spicing up your life can take a very simple and mundane form. Or in the case of a challenge I embarked on in early-July, a bland and literally tasteless one. Feeling sometime in mid-June that I had been swept up too mindlessly by the push-and-pull of the everyday, and seeing that I *had* to reclaim some sense of agency with the way I lived, I eventually decided: I would allow myself only water as a drink. I'm pretty sure Yakun and Toast Box lost a fair bit o

    Big things are funny things

    Being anywhere tangentially close to current affairs news right now is deeply depressing. In so many ways, the world seems like it's going to s*it.  In a bid to escape all that and cheer myself up a little, I've been recently amused and moderately infatuated with randomly huge things. Here are just a couple that make me chuckle:  Yup, the world's largest chair. I also find the name of the company, XXXLutz, incredibly funny and more than a little blue.  Otto the ot
