A Singaporean woman feared for her life when she realized a Grab driver was watching a movie while driving in Johor Bahru, Malaysia on November 12.

Stupid c shared with Stomp that she booked a Grab ride from Taman Molek to AEON Mall Tebrau City at about 3:20 p.m.

“He turned the music up loud after he started driving,” she said.

“When I was behind him I couldn’t see what he was doing, but I decided to take a closer look.

“To my horror, I saw that the driver was watching a movie on another device while driving.

“This is absolutely unacceptable.”

She stated that such reckless and irresponsible behavior endangered her safety as a passenger and that of other road users.

“I did not feel safe confronting the driver directly as I was alone and concerned for my own safety, but I reported this to Grab Malaysia,” she said.

“I hope they revoke his license.”

Those who use their phones while driving a vehicle in Malaysia can be fined up to RM1,000 ($300) or jailed for up to three months.
