A video is circulating on social media supposedly showing a delivery lorry driver trying to ram people sitting at a mamak restaurant. The 63-second video, as seen on Majoriti, starts with the lorry driver arguing with a motorcyclist and another man sitting at a table set up by the restaurant by the roadside. After a few seconds, the lorry driver drives forward past the two men and tries to back up into them. The two men manage to move out of the way of the lorry before members of the public can be seen scolding and yelling at the lorry driver for his actions. Did this really happen in Negri Sembilan?
Verdict:

According to Seremban police, the incident occurred around 10pm on Feb 4 at Jalan Kerapu Taman Permai 3.
