Getting caught in a traffic jam is frustrating, but it's even worse when faulty traffic lights turn the roads into complete chaos. However, one selfless man recently stepped up to manage the situation, winning praise from both road users and even a traffic officer.
A viral TikTok video shared by @navinampang on Feb 2 captured the scene of a massive traffic snarl caused by malfunctioning traffic lights. As impatient drivers struggled to move, a good Samaritan took it upon himself to restore order.

Without hesitation, the man positioned himself at the intersection and began directing vehicles, ensuring a smooth flow of traffic. His determination was so intense that he didn't even realize a police officer had taken out his phone to film him in action.
The clip quickly gained traction on TikTok, amassing over 660k views and sparking discussions in the comments. While many applauded the man for his initiative, some felt amazed at the fact that a law enforcement officer was recording instead of stepping in to assist.
Others pointed out that his efforts not only eased congestion but also demonstrated the power of community spirit in unexpected situations.
