We’ve all been stuck in traffic jams before and sometimes, you end up seeing some really weird things happening – so much so it’ll shock you, but perhaps most of the time, amuse you! Here are some interesting stories from Malaysians who have seen some rather bizarre things while on the road:
1. The independent cow
“I saw a cow walking on the road. At Jalan Tun Razak, KL. Morning traffic. Pacing around like no one else’s business. Very independent.”
– Yana Kazman, 28
2. The accidental superstar
“I was dancing and singing my heart out and not looking at others…”
“When I finally looked around, there’s this car with a group of teenagers and they were filming me, hahahah! I hope it doesn’t go viral though because it was a very terrible dance in the car.”
– Ilysha, 27
3. The ‘creepy’ driver
“I was on the way back from a Halloween party and I usually like to dress the part. So this time I had bandages all over my face and there was fake blood dripping down, like the whole works. I was waiting at the red light then I just looked to my right, and this auntie jumped in her seat!”
“She looked at me with such big eyes like she almost had a heart attack! I felt really bad but it was also kinda funny.”
– Teresa, 24
4. The guy who couldn’t hold it in
“I saw someone stop during the federal highway jam. Traffic was really bad and at standstill, so he just got out of his car and ran towards the bus stop, squatted behind the bus stop and started pooping.”
– Jessica Divakaran, 27
5. The nose trimmer
“Not traffic jam, but traffic light. The van behind me must be a company/factory van of some sort. Let me tell you, this driver took scissors from the glove compartment and began snipping his nose hair before putting the scissors back.”
“To think that the scissors might be used to open up boxes or cut some order forms in the near future is just eww.”
– Ezza Jalani, 30
6. The selfie taker
“When I first got my licence, I remember this guy coming out of his car just to take a selfie with the jam. It wasn’t even at a highway.”
– Kyle Zaman, 20
7. The different type of artist
“I spotted someone digging their nose, collecting it patiently, deeper and deeper. He then ‘kantoi’ seeing me, made a face towards me, and just stared me down, continuing to passionately dig his other nose. Never knew digging our noses was such an art, lol.”
– Nabila Norsofiena, 28
8. The hijack
“So I was waiting for the jam to clear when suddenly these Mister Potato cars came out of nowhere and started handing out these Mister Potato Sweet Potato crisps. I was shocked because I really didn’t expect that during a traffic jam!”
– Ken Tan, 27
At least Ken won’t be the only one experiencing this!
Getting caught in traffic isn’t that bad after all when you have Mister Potato Sweet Potato crisps! With its attractive purple colour and just a hint of sweetness, it’ll make you keep reaching in for more (minus the guilt). What’s even better is that it’s made from real sweet potato and has no artificial flavours or colours!
All of this week, Mister Potato cars will be going around to surprise you guys who are stuck in traffic, so keep an eye out for them!
