PETALING JAYA: Would you lend your motorcycle to a stranger you met on the highway? Muhamad Israq Esdizul, the man with the moniker Abang Baju Merah, would – without hesitation.

The 27-year-old site supervisor handed over the keys to his Kawasaki Ninja 150RR to Fathul Wafi Mohd Sokhih, 29, and his wife Natasya Khairuddin, 24, when he saw the former pushing his motorcycle along the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) after its rear tyre was punctured.
