How dare you honk at him? Can't you see he's making an illegal U-turn?

A certain camcar driver finds himself on the receiving end of an angsty display after honking at a Toyota Corolla for making an illegal U-turn.

The entirety of this short clip accurately shows how fragile some drivers' egos can be. 

The video starts with the camcar driver travelling down Punggol Field, right behind a grey Toyota Corolla.

The vehicle travels between the last and middle lane, with the driver suddenly staying in the middle lane as both vehicles approach the traffic junction. 

Presuming that the Corolla would be going straight, the camcar driver tries to make his right turn - only to have the grey car cut him off as the driver attempts to perform an illegal U-turn.

Confused, the camcar driver pressed his horn just as he stops in time to avoid a collision.

This upsets the other driver, who wildly waves his arm out of his window.

However, he doesn't stop there as he rolls down his window, gets out of his car and proceeds to angrily gesture and justify his U-turn.

All I can say is that has to be the most small d*@! energy thing I have seen this whole year.

Illegal U-turns in Singapore

While some netizens have commented that there could have been a U-turn sign, our research says otherwise. 

Upon entering the location into Google Maps, we see that the entire stretch that both vehicles were on did not have any 'U-turn ahead' signs.

According to the Road Traffic Rules,

While some drivers tend to make a large U-turn in order to avoid curb rash on their rims, it is highly discouraged as this might result in a collision with oncoming vehicles on the right-turning lane. 

Drivers found guilty of making an unauthorised U-turn will face a fine of up to $150.

At this point, not even extra driving lessons could save a driver with such a fragile ego.

I live nearby there and often pass by that road. Seen many cars did illegal u-turn and often cannot complete it without doing a reverse or mount kerb. 

I usually make 2 right turns and go one round instead. Too many cars at that junction and always full of pedestrians waiting to cross the road at the traffic light.

    A 20-year journey, an old passion rekindled

    For us 90s babies, the Holy Trinity of Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network formed a big part of our childhood. The internet was just about coming into fruition, with the rise of a plethora of websites with numerous entertaining flash games and of course, the early days of YouTube. And though those things have come and gone, one thing in my life remained constant: My love for Pokemon. I first got into Pokemon 20 years ago, and I remember exactly how it went down. Let me set the

    Musings about the Pomodoro Method

    In a hyper-connected mega-city, where time seems to tick at a relentlessly brisk pace and where distractions are aplenty, pondering the art of productivity and focus is inevitable. In fact, it’s almost become a necessity. No wonder so many listicles have been written to point us in the right directions. Different methods works for different folks, of course, and when I was in my final year of university, I was introduced to a method that I regularly return to still: The Pomodoro Method, a d
