The incident lasted about two minutes before the bus resumed its journey, said Mrs Wu. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">TikTok user @kbsebelas <a class=\"text-primary-brand no-underline hover:underline\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@kbsebelas\/video\/7622864212657818901\" target=\"_blank\">shared a video of the dispute<\/a>, showing a man jabbing a finger at the bus driver repeatedly before being ushered off the bus by a woman.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">After alighting, he continues to berate the driver. A motorcyclist boards and speaks to the bus driver, pointing towards the lorry driver, before alighting as well.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">The bus driver exits the vehicle and is seen making a phone call as the clip ends.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">Mrs Wu added that a police report has been lodged in relation to the incident.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">Stomp has reached out to the police for comment.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"lg:text-28 lg:leading-33.6px pt-md font-primary text-24 font-bold leading-1.2\">\u2018No need to react to that extent\u2019: Netizens express disapproval<\/h2>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">The viral video garnered over 142,400 views, as many netizens expressed disapproval of the lorry driver\u2019s behaviour. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">\u201cJust make a report if the driver is at fault, no need to use vulgarities to abuse the bus captain,\u201d one netizen pointed out. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">Others agreed that there was \u201cno need to react to that extent\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">Several urged motorists to give way to the bus, pointing out that it was a bus lane, while a number of netizens called for authorities to take action. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary pt-md text-18 font-normal leading-1.5 text-grayscale-800\">According to the <!-- -->OneMotoring website<!-- -->, vehicles are prohibited from stopping within nine metres of a bus stop.
