“He uses his customers’ cars like this” — Red Axia Goes Viral for Overloading, M’sians Say It’s Not the First Time
If you're an avid social media user, chances are you've come across a viral video showing a red Perodua Axia carrying a mountain of items stacked on top of the vehicle.
Many assumed the driver was moving house and, in an effort to save money, decided to transport everything himself instead of hiring movers.
However, the truth behind the incident turned out to be quite different.
In the comments section, one TikTok user stepped in to share the real story behind the viral video. It’s understood that the incident took place in Bukit Changgang, Sepang — and it has nothing to do with moving.
“He's not moving house. We don’t really know what’s wrong with this uncle, but he owns a car workshop. He often uses his customers’ vehicles like this. He’s gone viral three times before — once with a Perodua Viva, then a BMW, and a Proton Waja. He transports goods like this to the point where it almost causes accidents. His workshop is near my house.”
Another TikTok user also alleged that customers who sent their vehicles to the uncle’s workshop often found their cars in worse condition than when they arrived — and sometimes even dirty.
“His house is also full of garbage. He owns a car workshop in Bukit Changgang. But anyone who sends their car there says it comes back worse than before.:
"The uncle often uses his customers’ cars to transport goods — even garbage. People have been complaining about the condition of their cars. He’s even damaged some of them. A few weeks ago, he did the same thing and crashed into another vehicle — with a baby inside. The car he used last week is still abandoned by the side of the road,” said the TikTok users.
Meanwhile, other TikTok users have urged the authorities to take action to prevent further incidents and ensure the safety of other road users.
