An express bus driver on drugs took eight terror-stricken passengers along on a half-hour high-speed police chase in Malaysia’s northern Terengganu state, a report said on Wednesday.
The 42-year-old driver, who roared off after being flagged down in a routine speed trap, rammed one of the two police cars chasing his bus in an attempt to run it off the road, the New Straits Times said.
The driver was caught at a junction when his path was blocked by other vehicles at the traffic light. He was arrested after a brief struggle and a urine test revealed he was on drugs. The passengers were unhurt, said state police chief Hussin Ismail. – Sapa-AFP
