Motorists in Malaysia are no strangers to stumbling across weird rarities on the roads. Every now and then, there will be a loose cow stranded from its herd, standing right in the middle of the road. Sometimes, we can even find odd-looking roadkill.
But, what this mother and daughter pair found was something out of the ordinary and very confusing. It was a coconut with nails hammered into it. According to a now-viral Twitter video, the pair was driving around Section 13, Shah Alam when they stumbled across this weird coconut. They claimed to have found it by the divider of the road, near the yellow sign. The girl in the video stated that she wanted to pick up the weird-looking “rock” that was spotted near the Stadium Melawati roundabout.
However, upon closer inspection, she realised that it was actually a half coconut with three LARGE nails hammered into it.
Her mum took to Twitter to share this video and to warn fellow motorists regarding this issue. She warned that it may be the latest technique used on the road to attack other drivers. However, she couldn’t comprehend what was the motive behind this coconut. She further stated in a reply tweet that she would file a police complaint regarding this matter.
Her tweet received over 16,000 retweets with many users expressing their opinions. Twitter users expressed their concerns over road safety and demanded a safer road for commuters.
Users even shared their tips on how to avoid these kinds of situations in the future and things to look out for.
We urge all motorists to stay safe out there and keep a lookout when they are on the road. Take care, guys!
