Being stuck in a traffic jam for hours may test the patience of any road user. Even so, it’s necessary to refrain from blowing up petty disputes into fully-fledged fights.
Recently, such a situation occurred in Johor Bahru (JB), when a passenger in a Mercedes and the driver of a Honda confronted each other.
They argued before it descended into fighting, with their companions attempting to stop them.
The scene has since grown viral on social media, many slamming them for their needlessly aggressive actions.
A netizen posted the incident to SG Road Vigilante on Facebook, alleging that it occurred on 26 Sep, 12.01am.
