Only recently the nation was shocked with yet another express bus tragedy that claimed lives of 10 passengers because of the driver's alleged recklessness.

This time a passenger video-taped an incident that could have caused a similar outcome.

Speaking to Malaysiakini, the passenger who requested anonymity said he caught on his cellphone camera, the bus driver of the double-decker Mutiara Ekspress he was travelling in, allegedly watching a dangdut music video while driving on the East-Coast Highway from Kuala Terengganu to Kuala Lumpur in the early morning of Dec 26.

He claimed that the packed bus was going at 97km per hour - well over the bus speed limit of 90km per hour - after passing the Kuantan exit.
