On Friday (8th July), the Gerik-Jeli Highway had an unannounced visitor that led to congestion. The cause of the traffic jam was an adult elephant who went into a brief rage. The incident went viral after road users posted videos of the incident on their TikTok profile pages.

According to the first video posted by a user named Aiman, the four-legged mammal initially was staring at the car he was in, a Perodua Viva, from the side of the road. However, the driver immediately accelerated and left the scene when the elephant was heading toward them. It then approached the car behind the Perodua Viva, a Nissan Grand Livina.

Unfortunately, they didn’t leave unscathed. The elephant placed one of its feet on the front side of the multi-purpose vehicle and damaged the car’s left side mirror with its trunk. Thankfully, they managed to flee the scene afterward when the elephant got distracted, as recorded in a video by another TikTok user, Isha.

Isha, a passenger in the Toyota Avanza car behind the Nissan Grand Livina, recounted the wild animal placing its foot on the bonnet of the car she was in. The driver of Toyota Avanza did not rush to leave immediately but waited until the elephant was back on the side of the road.

In another video posted by user @scandalcouture, she explained that the elephant behaved in such a way because the first car in the line (Perodua Viva) probably grazed it when they were making a run for it. “If the Avanza (driver) in front of us accelerated hastily too, we don’t know what will happen to us,” she added.

The TikTok videos received millions of views since they were posted. Most of the comments posted by the netizens were amusing, while some expressed concern toward the passengers and drivers.

This incident serves as a reminder to be extra cautious while driving, especially when the road is known for cases involving wild animals.
