S'pore car driver allegedly punched driver who honked at him in Johor Bahru

A man driving a Singapore-registered car in Johor Bahru got physical with a local driver after he was honked at in a car park.

The altercation, which was caught on video, shows the man appearing to punch and beat the other driver.

The footage was later circulated on the Facebook group JB TRACER II.

According to China Press, the incident occurred at around 4pm on May 1 in the car park of a shopping mall in Bukit Indah Garden.

Physical altercation

The Singapore car driver had reportedly been blocking the road in the car park, prompting the local driver to honk.

This appeared to enrage the driver of the Singapore car.

He exited his vehicle to confront and assault the other driver.

The confrontation was recorded by a passenger in the local driver's car, who can be heard shouting vulgarities.

A passerby intervened by stopping the attack and escorting the Singapore car driver back to his car.

Local police later confirmed that both parties had filed reports, and the case remains under investigation.
