[VIDEO] Malaysians unite to move an illegally parked car off the road

It is often inspiring to see a group of strangers unite and combine their strength for a good cause. It exhibits the spirit of a helpful and friendly community and shows how much we can achieve together.

Malaysians once again showed that same spirit in a viral TikTok video posted by @haery_dean, where a group of motorists banded together in moving an illegally parked car off the road to make way for a Rapid bus.

In the video, the bus was stuck in the middle of the road as several cars were occupying both sides of the road.

The bus tried squeezing through the tiny space but could not get past a blue car. Despite the driver’s relentless honking, the car owner was nowhere to be found.

Thankfully, some motorists came to the rescue and gathered around the car like ants around a block of sugar. From there, they began to lift it off the road and move it to the curb.

After several attempts, the bus manages to gingerly drive through the narrow passage. However, @haery_dean claims that some cars weren’t so lucky and got damaged in the process.

Watch the video here:

Obstructing public transportation is an offence under Malaysia’s traffic laws and carries a fine of RM200. If you don’t want to become poorer, we suggest that you ensure your vehicle is parked in a designated area.
