A video emerged online showing a driver cutting queue @ the Tuas Second Link Checkpoint, before he whipped out his Malaysian passport to flash it in front of the camcar driver like it’s a talisman.
It is unclear what exactly he was trying to accomplish by flashing his passport, but netizens have deduced that he was trying to channel the spirits of his Malaysian founding fathers to ward off evil spirits.
The incident was caught on the dashcam of a netizen, Joanna Loh, who was behind the “passport-guy” in the queue.
She said that because of the heavy national day traffic, she left for the Tuas Second Link at about 7am with her sister and got through customs at about 8am.
After going through the customs, she was then trapped on the road in the traffic jam for 4 hours, and encountered the “passport-guy”.
The passport guy was driving a black honda and tried to cut into her queue, but Loh was unwilling to let him cut in and inched her car forward.
The driver had allegedly failed to signal, according to Loh, who said that she would’ve let him in if he had signalled to her.
The driver then gestured at them, asking them “what’s your problem”, before reaching into his car for his Malaysian passport and flashing it out of the window to show her.
The driver then proceeded to squeeze in front of her.
In another video, the “victorious” passport guy, after successfully cutting in front of Loh, got out of his car and points at his Malaysian licence plate, before flashing a thumbs up to Loh.
