So there was this taxi driver who was suspected to be robbing passangers.

Our police set up a task force to tracked down this rouge driver. They came close to nabbing him yesterday with 4 plain clothed policemen in 2 unmarked car.

The taxi was identified, a chase ensured, shots were fired. The taxi went on the New Pantai Expressway, one of the numerous privatised highways in the Klang Valley that we love to hate. Came the toll booth, taxi breezed through the SmartTag lane, while policemen were stranded in the manual lane. Suspect escaped

Hail to the SmartTag.

Moral of the story:
1. If you’re gonna evade the authority, get the SmartTag transponder.
2. Unmarked police cars should be equipped to withstand crashing through the lane without paying
3. Use a bike (free of charge on paid expressway)
