Drivers on the North-South Highway beware of this practice

On the 20/09/09 (1st day of 2009 Hari Raya Aidilfitri), I drove from Alor Setar to KL. Somewhere before Tapah, there was this sole motorcylist with his yellow light blinking and he was speeding at 120km/hr catching up on me. I have encountred big-bikers that zoomed at higher speed (and in convoys) and no problem with them passing me in the space between cars. But this motorcyclist (seem like a Vespa -type) insisted on behaving as a 'car' and waved me aside to give way. No problem with that as I'd not want to endanger him. After giving him the way, I then realised there was a car following closely behind this bike; the car did not attempt to overtake. Looked asif a 'private escort' or 'private outrider'.

The highway authority should look out for such practice and put a stop to it, as there could be unpleasant incidents or event accidents by such antics
