This week on Cruise Control, we mull over three big headlines - The chairman of a large automobile manufacturer was fired; drivers with retro fitted HID lights are to be fined; and the Malaysian government takes more steps towards preventing car accidents. They end with a review of now a car, but of the KL International Motor Show, where multiple new launches were exhibited.
