Does this truck driver even have a proper license?

There seems to be a high influx of road accidents recently, with a majority of victims being motorcyclists.

In this baffling video, a motorcyclist appears to properly form up after noticing the stationary camcar at a traffic junction. Riding in front of a large truck, the biker starts to slow down.

To his dismay, the truck behind him fails to brake in time and continues travelling at a high speed.

This leads to a series of unfortunate events as the truck hits the motorcyclist, flinging him off his bike before crashing into the stationary camcar. 

Luckily, the rider manages to avoid his death after the impact as he immediately stands up and throws his hands in a "WTF?" manner. 

The biker then walks to the front of the road, where the truck supposedly should be. Upon witnessing this shocking accident, other drivers got out of their vehicles to help the motorcyclist and his bike. 

Truck had a trade plate

The video description states that the truck carries a trade plate, which is a temporary number plate for unlicensed vehicles.

It is a possibility that the vehicle could be new and have yet to be registered or it's just being brought for testing on the road.

An eerily similar incident in Malaysia

Many were quick to point out that this accident was eerily similar to one that happened a few days ago in Malaysia. 

Just like the motorcyclist accident, a tipper truck was unable to stop as it approached a junction filled with stationary vehicles.

As a result, a yellow taxi in front of the truck was completely crushed and several other cars were pushed off the road in a serious chain collision.

Netizens' reactions

Is this just a mere coincidence or is there something more to both of these accidents?
