KUALA LUMPUR: Although this article comes with a strong recommendation to refrain from ever doing as this young woman did, it nevertheless does serve to show that road bullies are a growing menace in our country and come in all shapes and sizes.

This recent case of road bullying occurred on November 17 behind a hotel in Jalan Raja Chulan, this time involving a young girl and a much older taxi driver.
Relating the incident, the victim said a taxi driver, who looked around 60 years old, lost his cool when she refused to reverse her car after he deliberately blocked her path in a busy back street in the city.

The victim remarked there was no reason for the taxi driver to stop his car right in front of hers in that manner since it was a two-way lane and the “uncle” could have easily moved aside so she could pass.

Clearly annoyed at her refusal to reverse although according to the victim, “There was no space for me to reverse,” the taxi driver began shouting at her using foul language and even banged her car slightly.

Alighting from her vehicle to take a photo of the taxi driver and his car, the man then yanked open her car door and made as if to drive off with her car.

At this point, the young woman asked him loudly why he hit her car at which he told her to remove her car immediately. He then slapped her on the left side of her face.

Not to be cowered by a road bully, she slapped him back at which point he slapped her again, this time on the right of her face and grabbed her face in his hands.

She said that to defend herself, she pinched his chest until he let her go. Posting a picture of herself with a bleeding lip, she wrote, “The slap caused a cut on my lips”.

With the licence plate of the car clearly visible in the photo that was uploaded, it is hoped that police will do the necessary to ensure road-bullies who slap women around, are banned from driving on our streets.
