The open road is a place where rules should be followed, respected, and all users should coexist peacefully. However, sometimes, an unfortunate incident unfolds, leading to dangerous situations.
In a recent dashcam footage that went viral on Twitter shared by @jnmalaysia, the actions of a motorcyclist left netizens shocked and appalled. The video earned 585.3K views till date. And it is stated in the dashcam footage that the incident had happened in Nyireh, Besut, Terengganu.
This event reveals a harrowing case of road bullying and highlights the importance of responsible driving for everyone’s safety.
It all started innocently enough, with a car driver honking at a motorcyclist who had seemingly overtaken him. Little did the car driver know that this simple act would ignite a chain of events. As captured by the dashcam, the motorcyclist took this act of honking super personally, triggering an aggressive response.
The motorcyclist’s reaction was swift and reckless. He darted towards the car, weaving through the front dangerously and closing in on the car.
Unbeknownst to the motorcyclist, the car he targeted had a dashcam. As the dramatic chase unfolded, every move was recorded, capturing the motorcyclist’s dangerous manoeuvres and his blatant disregard for road safety.
This video has already become a crucial piece of evidence for the authorities and a catalyst for public outcry
Once the footage made its way onto social media, netizens expressed their shock and disdain for the motorcyclist’s behaviour.
“Showing-off like a gangster, but ended up going viral.”
“Arrogant. He doesn’t know that one wrong move could throw him to the back with his ego. The most bluffed gangster ever.”
“These kinds of people should be penalised. When the penalty points are enough, revoke their licence, especially for those who act like road bullies.”
Comments flooded in, criticising his reckless actions and likening them to a road gangster. The concord was clear that such behaviour had no place on the streets, endangering the lives of innocent drivers and pedestrians alike.

Tak berpuas hati bila di hon apabila beliau masuk simpang dengan conner yang laju dan beliau mengejar dan cuba untuk menggugut dengan mengeluarkan kayu dan apabila beliau nampak kereta mempunyai dashcam, beliau letak kayu kebawah dan ketepi.
