With the waiting period for some new cars is stretching past the 6-month mark, many buyers have become rather impatient, and justifiably so. Take for example the 2022 Perodua Myvi. Book one today and you’ll be waiting up to 9.5 months before you can get the keys to your brand-new hatchback. If you thought that was bad, the waiting period for a Perodua Bezza stretches more than a year (13.5 months)!

Perhaps more akin to high-speed chases often seen in the US, a video, reportedly shared by Johor’s Team Task Force (MPV) patrol unit involved in a high-speed pursuit in their FC Honda Civic and the suspect’s Honda Jazz. According to video, the approximately 35-minute police chase took place on the 20-June 2021 when the patrol unit flagged down a GK Honda Jazz in Kampung Melayu Majidee.
