A VIDEO circulating on social media shows two motorcyclists confronting a car driver on a busy road in Kajang.

The footage, which was uploaded to Facebook, captured a heated exchange that escalated into a traffic obstruction at a traffic light junction.

But did this incident really stem from a misunderstanding between the parties involved?

Verdict:

TRUE

Two motorcyclists blocked a vehicle on Jalan Cheras Perdana, Batu 11 in Kajang on Tuesday (Feb 10) following a misunderstanding with a car driver.

Kajang OCPD Assistant Commissioner Naazron Abdul Yusof said the incident occurred at around 5.40pm.

The two motorcyclists involved were pushing their broken-down motorcycle when a verbal argument erupted with a car driver.

"They then proceeded to block the vehicle in question even though the driver was in the correct lane," he said in a statement on Friday (Feb 13).

The actions of both motorcyclists, who rode against traffic to approach the vehicle, also posed risks to other road users.

The case is being investigated under Section 79(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.

Members of the public with information related to the incident are asked to come forward to assist in the investigation.

Any information can be channelled by contacting the investigating officer, Inspector Saifudin Saadun at 011-2111 9379.

Earlier, a video went viral on social media showing two individuals confronting the driver of a vehicle.

The incident then escalated to a traffic light junction when one of the individuals blocked the vehicle in question.

The incident is believed to have been recorded by the vehicle's dashboard camera before it went viral on social media.
