It’s all too familiar to witness sudden and reckless driving on the roads, but some incidents still manage to catch us off guard.
Recently, a Malaysian man shared his alarming experience with a van driver who made an unexpected turn, startling the man’s car that was following behind.
The event, which occurred on 27th January at 4.49pm, raised concerns not just about road safety, but also about the well-being of the children in the van, as it was filled with young passengers.
Sudden turn with no warning
Speaking exclusively to WeirdKaya, the OP shared that the incident unfolded as he was heading towards Megah Rise from his neighbourhood, driving along Jalan SS2/3.
I had the right of way, as captured in the dash cam video. There was a black car beside me, waiting for the traffic on the main road to clear.”
Without any indication or warning, the van suddenly turned in front of him, catching him by surprise.
The driver’s brake-checking
Furthermore, the things quickly escalated when the van driver decided to brake-check the man’s vehicle.
Despite there being no cars in front of the van, the driver deliberately slowed down, creating a risky situation on the road.
“My initial reaction was anger, but I held back from honking,” he said.
I chose to focus on my drive, but as seen in the video, the driver intentionally slowed down and brake-checked me, making the situation even more reckless.” the op told us.
With children on board, the driver’s reckless behaviour could have led to a dangerous or even life-threatening outcome.
To all drivers out there, be careful, watch out for others on the road, and remember the responsibility you have behind the wheel.
