A Singapore-registered car caused a stir after it occupied a pump at a fully occupied petrol station in Johor, while the driver leisurely went inside to buy food and eat, leaving other cars waiting in line for fuel.
The incident occurred on Oct 24 during the evening.
Petrol Station at full capacity
Speaking to WeirdKaya, Min (Not her real name), expressed frustration, describing how the driver, after refueling, casually walked into the petrol store, bought some items, and handed them to companions before they stood at the entrance to eat, without moving the car to a parking space.
The petrol station was fully occupied. Many cars were waiting to refuel. Despite this, the driver didn’t move the car to a parking spot, even though there were plenty of available spaces right in front of the petrol station,” Min wrote in her post.
10 to 15 Minutes Wait in Vain
Min also told WeirdKaya that they had to wait 10 to 15 minutes before a staff member redirected them to another pump.
Even after I finished refueling and left, the group was still standing there, chatting and eating as if they had all the time in the world.”
When asked if they reported the issue to the station staff, Min said, “I did tell the staff that the wait was too long, but they couldn’t really do much to ask the driver to move.”
The incident has sparked a lively discussion online, with many criticizing the driver’s inconsiderate behavior and noting that pump spots should be vacated promptly during peak hours.
Others agreed that drivers should use the designated parking spaces, especially when the petrol station is busy.
