Mercedes‑Brakes & Midnight Madness on Flora Road
What happened? Picture this: the hum of traffic has dwindled to a quiet lull at around 11 pm on October 31, and a slick Mercedes is parked on Flora Road by Loyang Avenue. Suddenly the dead‑quiet is broken by a bus horn that sounds like a distress call. That horn is blasted by the captain of SBS Transit’s four‑bus, a vehicle that had just finished handing out tickets and was trying to pull out of a tight bay.
Enter the Mercedes Driver – The Queen‑Bee of Frustration
- He doesn’t move. He grows mad. He jumps out of the car and starts shouting at the bus captain like he’s on a mental “Man of the Month” show.
- He even hits the bus side – a sudden “beng” that echoed the bus’s own warning.
- He pulls out of the lane only to stage a full-on street‑corner throw‑down.
The Chaos He Stole
With a fury that would outshine any movie villain, he then boards the bus himself – no sign of knocking or pushing, just a bold nudge. From there he grabs the captain’s mobile phone and drops it onto the asphalt like a hot potato. A class‑act, right?
A passenger’s quick thinking came to the rescue. A woman – likely a fellow driver’s acquaintance – pulls the bus captain into the bus and nudge – or tug – the Mercedes driver into getting off. The bus captain’s phone is retrieved by a sort of “digital hero” style.
What the Company Says
Mrs. Grace Wu, SBS Transit’s Vice President for Customer Experience, says the bus captain did only his job. “We’re not letting anyone harass or intimidate our crew. We’ve officially filed a police report. If needed, we’ll help our staff fight for justice in court or even finance their legal representation.
And she’s right: a bus chime, a Mercedes growl, and the silent night turns into a scene out of a thriller. No lawyer’s office, no courtroom drama. Just a story that can snag a viral video on YouTube.

Why It Matters
- Transport crews must stay safe to keep passengers moving.
- When people lose their cool, the law will take the wheel.
- Meanwhile, a quick‑thinking local has shown that community kindness can put a stop to dangerous behaviour.
In a world where driving complaints roam the headlines, a single night on Flora Road reminds us that patience on the road is fragile – and that keeping spirits high requires everyone’s cooperation.
