A driver was allegedly seen in a daze as he drove against traffic in Ulu Tiram, Johor Bahru, and a vape was allegedly found in his vehicle, according to a viral video uploaded to Instagram by user Wendashu7886, also known as Uncle Wen, on Thursday (April 16).<\/p>\n

The video has since got over 18,700 likes and more than 650 comments as at Friday evening.<\/p>\n

In the video, a black sedan emitting smoke can be seen driving against the flow of traffic with its front bumper crumpled.<\/p>\n

As a car swerves to avoid it, the black sedan comes to a halt as its tyres scrape against the <\/strong>kerb of the right-most lane.<\/p>\n

After dodging the errant vehicle, the driver steps out of his car, slapping the rear window of the sedan to warn the driver.<\/p>\n

However, the driver continues inching forward, causing Wen, who is taking the video, to turn left to avoid the black car.<\/p>\n

The video then cuts to the black car’s driver standing outside his vehicle as the driver of the other car searches his vehicle.<\/p>\n

@asiaone<\/a> It is unclear if the vape was a Kpod, containing the illicit anaesthetic etomidate, which may have explained the first driver’s erratic behaviour. #malaysianews<\/a> #malaysia<\/a> #vape<\/a> #road<\/a> #accident<\/a> #car<\/a> \u266c original sound – AsiaOne<\/a><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The latter then confronts the black sedan’s driver, after allegedly discovering an e-vaporiser in his vehicle.<\/p>\n

“What is this?” He can be heard questioning in Mandarin. “I’m calling the police!”<\/p>\n

Turning to Wen, he raises the vape to the camera and says: “He was smoking a vape.”<\/p>\n

The driver faces the black sedan’s driver again, berating him, but the driver appears to be in a daze, ignoring him.<\/p>\n

As the video ends, the black sedan’s driver pulls at his door handle, shocking Wen.<\/p>\n

“Take his car keys away from him!” Wen exclaims.<\/p>\n

‘Don’t harm others’<\/h2>\n

Netizens were similarly upset with the driver, with many scolding him for putting others at risk.<\/p>\n

“Even if you want to harm yourself, don’t harm others,” said one.<\/p>\n

Another commented: “If you want to get drunk or smoke, just stay home. It’s so frustrating when this happens.”<\/p>\n

Some users also tagged Malaysian Transport Minister Anthony Loke, requesting that security be stepped up.<\/p>\n
