The Accident
A dashboard camera footage showed two vehicles speeding and changing lanes abruptly in CTE, though you’ve got to give credit where credit’s due: they got signal while ‘racing’.
Shortly after that, it’s revealed that their antics didn’t go unscathed, as it led to an accident that caused a van to veer off the road and even landed on its side.

In the aftermath, a man was seen filming the overturned van and cursing incessantly about what’s happened, claiming that the other driver was driving recklessly.
He even said that one person was “stuck” in the van and the other “flew out” as he asked for people to be witnesses.
In another scene, another man was seen confronting the driver who appears to drive the speeding car. The speeding car driver asked, “You’re the driver?”
The man said, “Yah, I’m the driver.”
The speeding car driver then said, “Sorry,” but not in a remorseful tone but more like a tone of someone who’s giving a professional presentation.
The man then retorted, “Sorry!? Eh f*** you lah sorry! Nevermind, later we talk.”
And the speeding car driver used his professional tone again to say, “Okay, we’ll talk later.”
Based on the footage, it appears that the speeding cars had affected two other vehicles.
An injured woman was also seen sitting on the road.
