While inconsiderate drivers who double park or fail to use their signal lights exists, but when it happens in a foreign country, it not only causes frustration but also tarnishes a country’s reputation too.
This was exactly what happened recently in Thailand, where Malaysians had to bury their heads in shame after a locally-registered car was photographed parking indiscriminately.
M’sian-registered car slammed for parking recklessly
In a Facebook post shared by a Thai netizen named รอฟีอ๊ะ หมัดโส๊ะ, it showed a KL-registered luxury MPV parking recklessly by the roadside in Hatyai, Thailand.
The vehicle, which ‘conquered’ 3 perpendicular parking spaces by parking at a side angle, had caused major disruptions to traffic flow and brought inconvenience for other road users.
In the caption, she wrote: “Yet another case. Thai citizens, feel free to use Malaysian parking lots in Thailand. To our neighbours, please respect and follow our country’s rules.”
Netizens mock car owner
In the comment section, netizens were infuriated by the incident and condemned the actions of the irresponsible driver.
“Maybe the owner has a mental problem,” one commented.
“Forgive him…his cat is pregnant and giving birth,” another remarked sarcastically.
Another netizen joked that perhaps the driver was blind and mockingly asked the OP to forgive him.
To all Malaysians travelling to other countries, please respect existing laws and don’t embarrass us unnecessarily!
