A PEACEFUL morning drive in a village was disrupted by another motorist who stopped a woman's car and demanded that she unlock the door.
In a video posted on Facebook, he is seen tapping on the window of a car while a child is seated in the back.
He then returns to his car and drives away as a woman's voice is heard saying she will report the incident.
It is said that the incident occurred in Kampung Melayu Majidee in Johor Baru.

Police confirmed that a 35-year-old man has been arrested for trailing and harassing a woman in Kampung Melayu Majidee.
Johor Baru South OCPD Asst Comm Raub Selamat said they were notified about the incident at 1pm on Wednesday (Aug 21) after receiving a video clip showing a 28-year-old woman being followed by an unknown man.
“At 1pm on Thursday (Aug 22), a police team apprehended the suspect in the Stulang Baru area.
