A seemingly ordinary day at a Malaysian toll booth turned into a scene straight out of a comedy show.
A video, quickly going viral on social media, captured the toll booth barrier malfunctioning in a bizarre manner.
Instead of its usual steady movement, the barrier started swinging wildly up and down, creating an unexpected obstacle course for drivers.
This odd spectacle sparked a wave of amusement among netizens.
The unusual situation also led to practical challenges. Drivers, wary of the swinging barrier, were forced to navigate cautiously.
This added a layer of complexity to their routine commute, slowing down traffic and contributing to congestion at the toll booth.
High-tech way to prevent tailgating?
Online, people were abuzz with humorous comments, with some joking that the toll company had installed an ‘AI robot’ to enforce toll payments in a new, high-tech way.
“All the car owners in line are shaking .😂”
“Is that a toll booth barrier or a windshield wiper?”
In the end, it was revealed that the chaotic scene was not a deliberate strategy by the toll company to prevent toll evasion.
Instead, it was simply a technical glitch in the toll booth’s barrier system.
What started as a regular day on the road turned into a memorable incident, giving drivers and online viewers a laugh and a story to share.
