I went for lunch with my wife just now (which I normally do on Fridays). I was looking for a parking lot in front of RHB bank in Batu Lancang (Jln Tan Sri Teh Ewe Lin, to be precise) when I noticed there's buses queuing up and honking their horns away. It was quite a sight - first I thought the front-most bus was stopping for students to board, and got honked by other buses.
But no, it wasn't the front bus fault. There was another car - old-type Mercedes C-class, nicely parked at the roadside and hogging the road. The best thing is, there's no driver in car, making it a major pissed-off event there just now.As soon as we got down the car (parked nicely), the honking still continue - louder and louder. As my wife was giving the parking attendant our parking fees, we heard sudden burst of loud jeerings from the crowd that was watching the honking just now. Now we saw the driver - some lady driver, wearing office suit, rushing into the car. The jeering got louder as the car sped off.
That was a major public humiliation I have ever seen. Congratulations to the crowd for staging a successful major public humiliation to the Mercedes driver.
