KLANG: A video of a car being driven against the flow of traffic outside SJK(T) Taman Klang Jaya has gone viral, drawing widespread criticism from social media users.
The 18-second clip, believed to have been recorded at 12.40pm on Dec 15, shows a driver refusing to heed instructions to turn back after a school guard spotted the vehicle entering a no-entry lane.
In the footage, the guard is seen wearing a reflective vest and attempting to stop the vehicle by positioning himself directly in front of it.
Despite repeated instructions to turn around, the driver continues inching forward with the guard pressed against the bonnet until they reach the main junction outside the school grounds.
The video has garnered nearly 3,000 reactions and attracted over 400 comments on Facebook.
Social media users expressed shock at the driver's actions, questioning the decision to ignore traffic regulations near a school where children and parents were present.
One Facebook user wrote: "He clearly went into a no-entry road and ignored the school guard. There is no excuse for this."
Another commented on the guard's response: "The driver was wrong, but the guard should not have put himself in danger. Standing in front of a moving vehicle is extremely risky."
Others called for action to be taken against the driver, with one user saying: "The authorities should investigate this immediately. Such behaviour cannot be tolerated, especially in a school zone."
It is unclear if a police report has been lodged over the incident. - NST
