A TikTok video capturing an unusual and potentially dangerous situation has gone viral, amassing over 270k views since being shared yesterday (Dec 9). The 14-second clip, uploaded by @jaizahir, shows a middle-aged man asleep inside his car, which was not parked on the side of the road but stopped right in the middle lane along Old Klang Road.

The video begins with the driver snoozing in the vehicle, his arm folded across his chest. A quick camera pan reveals the alarming location of his car, raising immediate concerns about the safety of other road users.

  


The original poster (OP), realizing the risk, took action by knocking on the driver's window to wake him. After about five minutes of effort, the man finally stirred and acknowledged the OP with a wave of his hand.

The incident has sparked significant online debate. While many criticized the driver for endangering others by stopping in such an inappropriate spot, others expressed empathy. Some speculated that the man might be an exhausted e-hailing driver or struggling with health issues, urging viewers to consider the possible reasons behind his actions.

This incident highlights the importance of prioritizing safety on the road, whether by pulling over to a proper location for rest or seeking help if health conditions interfere with driving. For those witnessing such situations, stepping in responsibly, as the OP did, can prevent potential accidents and ensure the well-being of everyone involved.
