Rider Spots Couple At Mount Faber Roadside During Spooky Ride
We’re now well into the Seventh Month, otherwise known as the Hungry Ghost Festival.
As a result, coming across the unexpected sight of individuals standing by roadsides in the middle of the night can be a tad bit alarming for the motorists among us.
Such was the case recently in Mount Faber, where a rider spotted a couple while travelling at 2.15am in the morning.

“Please don’t walk on the roads,” he urges.

Indeed, the OP could have found himself in an accident if he had reacted to the couple with less composure than he had in the video.
Be cautious while on the road
With affected visibility in the middle of the night, attempting to cross these roads can be dangerous for both pedestrians and the motorists they encounter.
Accidents may occur as a result, at times leading to casualties in a situation that ultimately could have been easily avoidable.
Hopefully, this video will serve as a reminder for road users to be more careful while navigating traffic and for pedestrians to refrain from engaging in such behaviour.
