Many drivers would probably have found themselves in situations where their lane got cut and they just want to hurl vulgarities at the other driver.
Or when you’re trying to switch lanes and they intentionally speed up so that you don’t overtake them.
Or when you’re on the rightmost lane and someone tailgates you because they want you to go faster.
Or when someone hogs the rightmost lane.
Whatever it is, we usually hurl vulgarities in the comfort of our own cars or maybe just overtake them and stare at them through our windows just to see what they look like.
We’re told to be gracious drivers but many of us are still guilty of doing the above.
Of course, most of us don’t take any other actions, but this guy did.
Repeat Road Rage Offender
35-year-old Singaporean private-car hire driver, Muhammad Fuad Kamroden, is a repeat road rage offender who may face three years and six weeks’ jail because of the multiple counts of road rage and assaults he has committed even after he was jailed for similar offences in 2016.
According to The Straits Times, Deputy Public Prosecutor Andrew Low told District Judge Brenda Tan that Fuad committed three of the four latest offences while he was out on bail.
His Defence Lawyer Leslie Gregory Robert told the court that his client was sorry and that “he has a problem”.
Because of this, Fuad has been seeking help for his anger management since last year and is currently out on bail of $15,000.
He will be sentenced on 31 October 2019.
His Offences
Three months after he was released from jail in August 2016, Fuad committed another crime by attacking Mr Pek Lian Hui, a 52-year-old lorry driver.
Mr Pek was driving his lorry in a National University of Singapore carpark on 12 August 2016. Fuad who was driving behind him felt that Mr Pek was going too slowly, so he decided to overtake him and show an obscene hand gesture to Mr Pek. He then stopped in front of the lorry.
Mr Pek approached Fuad’s car and knocked on his window, probably trying to settle things calmly, but he was instead met with punches to his face, head, and abdomen.
Mr Pek called the police right after and was taken to National University Hospital. He sustained multiple injuries, including facial fractures.
Fuad was promptly arrested and was out on bail when he got involved in his next road rage incident on 2 December 2017. He pushed 46-year-old taxi driver Mohamed Iqbal Mohamed Sharif, causing him to lose his balance and fall over.
On 6 May 2018, he once again shoved 37-year-old Mr Ye Zhaojin for accidentally bumping into him when he was walking along the corridor of Vivo City.
Fuad attacked his fourth victim, 71-year-old taxi driver Mr Tio Seng Sing on 26 February 2019. He was riding his motorcycle and suddenly cut into the path of Mr Tio’s taxi at Selegie Road. He flashed an obscene hand gesture at Mr Tio and later punched him in the face when he was approached.
Hopefully, this will be Fuad’s final lesson and he learns to keep his cool.
And this goes out to all drivers as well! Don’t forget to be gracious when driving.
