Jalan Damai Road Showdown: A Horn in the Night
When a sunny May evening in Jalan Damai turns into a traffic soap‑opera, even the city’s commuters can’t help but raise an eyebrow.
What went down?
Picture this: a red Hyundai cruises past a pedestrian elegantly crossing the street, who had the green light in her favor. The driver, eager to make a quick right turn, wastes no time. Enter the honk‑ed‑hero—the camera‑bandit driver, who turns the California‑style wing’s “safety” check into a full‑blown call‑out.
- Red Hyundai makes despite the honk and attempts the turn.
- Video capture shows the other driver upsetting the Hyundai driver for his “horn‑clash.”
- The Hyundai driver, irritated to no end, decides to overtake the cam‑car, effectively boxing it in.
- Result: a collision, a dented side on the Hyundai, and a racing pulse for everyone.
Netizens’ take‑away
- “Take me off the road!”—many shouted that the driver should never make it back for a moment.
- Some said, “Well, maybe the horn was a fire‑starter. Provocation does happen,” and called for a more balanced view.
And yes, if you’re a fan of reaction videos, a clip of this drama was soon posted on the SG Road Vigilante Facebook page, tagging us all the way.
Take‑away lesson:
Horns are like personal voicemail notes—don’t assume what’s meant. And to all drivers: keep your cool. Even a quick turn can break more than an arm’s length.
