Netizens see red over Hilux driver's road rage in viral video
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysians have taken to social media to express outrage over a viral video showing a Toyota Hilux driver confronting another motorist in what appears to be a case of road rage during rush hour. The widely shared dashcam footage shows the man stepping out of his vehicle after a lane dispute, yelling at the driver of a Perodua Myvi and attempting to strike the car before being stopped by a traffic policeman. Social media users criticised the driver's aggressive conduct, calling it arrogant, reckless, and unacceptable. "He thinks just because he drives a 4x4, everyone has to give way?" wrote Facebook user Amirul Nazmi. Another user, Ahsanullah Osman, said: "Do you think the road belongs to your father? Are you the only one paying road tax? Just because you switched on your hazard lights, everyone has to move for you? What's the emergency, your grandmother died?" Some netizens initially believed the driver might have been rushing to a hospital but changed their stance after watching the full video. "At first, I thought maybe it was a real emergency, hazard lights on, maybe heading to a hospital. "But when he got out and picked a fight, that's when I stopped giving him the benefit of the doubt," commented user Merah Hitam. Others urged the authorities to take swift and stern action, warning that public confidence in the justice system could suffer if such behaviour goes unpunished. "I really hope this kind of road bully is punished to the fullest extent. "If not, people will start taking justice into their own hands," said user Mohd Khairul Izham. As of press time, the video has garnered thousands of views and comments, with many calling for the driver to be investigated and charged. Earlier, police confirmed they are investigating a viral altercation involving two drivers, in which a four-wheel drive vehicle sideswiped and collided with a car on the New North Klang Straits Bypass. Klang Utara police chief, Assistant Commissioner Vijaya Rao Samachulu, said the man threatened the other driver before fleeing the scene.
