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?

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.

While it's clear tiny houses aren't going to work out here, the concept of 'tiny living' is; not just physically but also mentally. Anyone who has lived enough years lo
