Geylang Car‑Road Rage Sparks Online Frenzy
When a video of a woman standing in front of a car on Geylang’s Lorong 35 went viral on Tuesday (Aug 9), it lit up social media with comments that ranged from “what a diva!” to “suspicious. is she a prostitute?”
The Story Behind the Video
Lisa, a 40‑year‑old Vietnamese woman, tells us the real story behind the viral clip in an interview with Shin Min Daily News on Thursday (Aug 11). She explains that she was simply waiting for her husband to pick them up after taking her daughter to volunteer at a temple.
- While scrolling on her phone, she claims her foot got caught in the side of a Mercedes.
- She tried to calm the driver, who “kept pushing her and wanted her to get out of his way.”
- When the driver slammed his bumper on the road and said, “This is Singapore, this is not China,” she tried to speak to him before the car sped away.
Why the Viral Clip Got a Rough Reception
Once the clip was posted on the SG Road Vigilante Facebook page, netizens began mocking her “crazy” attempt to stop the driver. Some even went as far as to accuse her of being a sex worker who’d been cheated out of money – rumors that were entirely false.
Lisa says those rumors “have made her feel very aggrieved.” She reports she also alert the police afterwards, hoping the truth will set her straight.
