Quoted.

"Towards the end of the second video, a traffic police officer could be seen stopping one of the black supercars with its top down."

so any follow up action from TP? any investigation into the organizer(s)? any public warning to car groups that road convoys are illegal?

As much as some cyclists get on my nerves, I've been very fair and voted "no" on both.

This country and its legal system are becoming a tragic joke in my view. And police spokespersons are not always right about the law and its interpretation and enforcement. For example, I recall there was one time one spokesperson said stay off the right lane at any speed unless overtaking, otherwise it's hogging, and another seemed to contradict that with the assertion that it was fine to travel the right lane at the speed limit. No guesses as to which one is more often quoted by the Roach Vaginante sites. 🙄

It is a joke.

My understanding from their interpretation is that road hogging is an offence, but if you're driving at the speed limit it is not an offence. 🙄

Don't know.

I am not against meet up but neither am I against the application of permit. Permit itself would encompass the organiser with responsibility and accountability.

Come to think of it if the MU is for some sort of feast like durian and not for vehicle mu.

Would that be allowed under the law? Curious. 🤔

TP acts on complaint only.

Unlikely to have enough resources to spread around.

Low key and not disturbing surrounding.  Why not?

If it is lodged, there might be Cisco standing around.

Any form of gathering be it humans or vehicles it is not allowed. It is called "illegal gathering".

This I know since younger days of chiong at night spots or pubs. If you are together with a group of friends expect non-uniforms to ask for your IC. It is "routine check" for them, that's what they will say. At the same time they will catch those who are drinking underage. I think ppl in mcf are good boys and good girls, never had police take down your IC before in their life. LoL...

For cars and other form of vehicles I believe ppl in the public will call the police nevertheless. It is an eye sore. Hahaha...

Anyway police dont make the call, they are just enforcing the law that is in place for many years. It is not personal.

I believe that police should step up roadblocks even during the day. I would think a fair amount are driving around with suspended license. 
should automatically jail. Same with vehicles without insurance or road tax.

If LTA get their act up, they would have sent enforcement officer out against owner of vehicles with expired road tax or insurance.

Small car groups are fine lah …… this guys due to internet blasts  and like Covid freedom word spread like wildfire and everybody in the group cannot tahan to break free and join in and not feel left out 

But those long line of exotic cars (few commenced from Hilton in Orchard Rd start-point previously) that roared downtown to MBS etc were not accosted by TP and I knew that there were few lawyers and young doctors in the mix. So, does high ses cars attract less attention than motorbikes? I'm not comparing those that consisted of bikes, and even container trucks that blasted their horns throughout the neighborhood causing jams during weddings, as they were a nuisance.
