# ‘Even It Follows The Rules’ — M’sians Amused To See Stray Dog Waiting For Traffic Light To Turn Green

##### It's a known fact that whenever the traffic light is red, motorists are required to stop and wait for it to turn green before driving on as failing to do so can lead to accidents.

One stray dog definitely put a majority of humans to shame after a viral clip showed it obediently waiting for the light to turn green before trotting away.

## Clip shows stray dog waiting for traffic light to turn green

In the [34-second TikTok clip](https://www.tiktok.com/@zaf4795/video/7320254734311443713) shared by @zaf4795, it showed the brown-coloured pooch waiting alongside several cars at the traffic light.

Instead of dashing across the road while the traffic light was still red, the dog stood still and patiently waited for the light to turn green.

Once the light turned green and it was time for the OP's lane to start moving, only then did the stray dog start running across to the other side of the road using the pedestrian crossing. *Extra points right there!*

**Speaking to WeirdKaya**, Zaf said the incident took place in front of the University of Sarawak (Unimas) in Kota Samarahan.

He also added that this wasn't the first time he had seen the dog in the area as he had sighted it twice previously and said he was lucky to film it obeying the traffic laws in action.

## 'Clever dog!'

The clip, which has garnered more than 55,000 views at the time of writing, saw netizens praising the dog for being such a good example of abiding by the traffic laws.
