Motorcyclist hurls vulgarities, flips middle finger at driver at Ikea Alexandra carpark
A Stomper was shocked by a motorcyclist's behaviour while exiting Ikea Alexandra on Sept 23 at about 1.10pm.
Stomper Anonymous said: "This is the kind of rider that gives Singaporean motorcyclists a bad name.
"Rude, impatient, self-entitled, and downright disgusting."
The incident occurred when the Stomper was leaving the carpark with a complimentary coupon.
He told Stomp that he paused briefly at the gantry to check the parking rates after noticing there was no fee charged.
"Knowing there's no car behind, I stopped for just two seconds to glance at the signage board," he said.
"Before I knew it, I heard a horn and realised there was a motorbike at the side, using the next gantry.
"The rider then started spewing vulgarities."
The Stomper said he needed the extra moment as he had planned to make a U-turn immediately upon exiting the carpark.
"When I finally drove out, the motorcyclist slid past on my left and gave me an angry glare, as if I had committed the biggest crime of the year," he recounted.
"I had not retaliated up to that point, but I decided to horn at him to let him know he was being unreasonable.
"That was when he raised his hand and flipped his middle finger at me."
The Stomper added: "To the rider: A short two-second pause does not justify calling me vulgar names and showing me your middle finger.
"You are incredibly rude, not to mention impatient."
