PETALING JAYA, Feb 17 — A Perodua Myvi driver has gone viral once again for all the wrong reasons.
In a video widely shared on Twitter, a driver of a silver Myvi decided to beat heavy traffic by taking the vehicle for an off-road spin and veering onto the grassy path nearby.
The seven-second long clip was retweeted by @FirrasAzaim_ and has garnered more than 14,000 retweets and 11,600 likes so far.
“Behold, the humble Myvi who lets other vehicles drive along the tar road. Be grateful,” he joked.
Tengok betapa humble nye myvi sanggup bagi kete lain lalu atas tar. Sila bersyukur https://t.co/u9lReAyABy

Previous road mishaps involving Myvis included one getting lodged on top of a road divider in Johor Baru in January while another Myvi driver took police officers on a wild goose chase earlier this month by driving in circles around a traffic light.
