#NSTviral: Malaysians flex muscle and lift badly parked car to clear gridlock

KUALA LUMPUR: Six Malaysians recently demonstrated remarkable strength and resourcefulness by lifting a parked car to free up a narrow road that had become gridlocked. A video of the heroic act has since become an internet sensation. The video was shared by a Threads user, who commended the Malaysian spirit and criticized the inconsiderate driver for obstructing the street.

The post quickly garnered widespread support, with many calling the group of men heroes. Section 48(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 states that parking in a way that causes obstruction, danger, or undue inconvenience to other road users is punishable by a fine, imprisonment, or both.
