A TikTok video captured a motorist forcing its way on a road monitored by a community for civilians.

In a clip uploaded by @bhushu.wamampondo, the cars are seen on a busy street in the morning. Community members who committed themselves to ensuring that people and cars get a fair chance to use the road were on site.

The members made sure that learners and workers were able to cross the road safely by putting the road cones on a stop sign, in front of the vehicles. However, one motorist was not having it. They ran over the cone, disregarding what the men were doing.
