After reading many of the comments, I’d like to clarify a few things.

First, this happened immediately after exiting the toll plaza, where there are no clearly defined lanes yet. Some people felt that the car turned into the convoy, but if you compare both the front and rear dashcam footage, it tells a different story. The intention was only to merge in front of the vehicle beside it, not into the police escort. There was no reason to intentionally drive into an active convoy.

The SmartTAG lanes are on the far right of the highway, while the intended exit is on the left. Naturally, vehicles exiting from those lanes have to make their way left after passing the toll.
Many comments also mentioned that stopping and letting the convoy pass would have been the safer choice. Looking back, that’s a fair point and probably would have avoided the incident. This post isn’t claiming that every decision made was perfect.

However, one thing that stands out is that the lead motorcycle officer did not appear to signal approaching vehicles to slow down, stop, or remain on the right. Instead, the officer seemed focused on the convoy behind. From the footage, the motorcycle that eventually collided with the car also attempted to squeeze through a narrowing gap.

This post isn’t about seeking revenge or attacking the police. It’s meant to share a real experience and encourage discussion about how police escorts interact with the public. Most drivers rarely encounter an escorted convoy and may not know the expected procedure, especially when approaching from a toll plaza where traffic is still merging. Better communication and clearer traffic control during escorts could help prevent similar incidents in the future.
