A heated argument at a Berapit toll plaza in Penang has escalated into a police case, with a 31-year-old businessman potentially facing an attempted murder charge after allegedly ramming his car into a doctor during a traffic dispute.

The incident occurred around 11:30 pm on Sunday (28 December), when an RFID barrier malfunction trapped vehicles, including a doctor’s car heading to Penang Sentral and a businessman’s Proton X50 behind it.
