A man was filmed punching and throwing a woman to the ground after she repeatedly kicked his car during an altercation in Singapore.
Video of the incident, filmed along Beach Road around 9am on Wednesday, was shared online by the Facebook group SG road guard later the same day.
The video begins with the woman arguing with the driver of the Prime Royal Vellfire Limo and showing him the middle finger. As the man is about to drive off, the woman suddenly throws herself onto the vehicle and kicks him in the side, infuriating the driver.
After stopping the vehicle, the driver gets out and immediately rushes to hit the woman. On the way back to the car, the woman follows him and tries to kick him. The angry driver rips the woman’s hat off and slaps her hard in the face, which can be heard in the video.

After recovering from the attack, the woman kicks the car’s side mirror twice. The driver attacks the woman again by throwing her to the ground. The woman then tries to stop the taxi from leaving, but after failing, she forcibly unfolds the side mirror instead.
Singaporean authorities have been made aware of the incident and are now investigating the case AsiaOne. It remains unclear what triggered the argument between the driver and the woman.
Video of the incident, which was also shared on YouTube, has amassed over 1.1 million views, 6,000 reactions, 1,300 shares and more than 1,000 comments on the SG Road Vigilante Facebook page at the time of this writing.

Some Facebook users got behind it attacked woman in support, with one writing, “Wat (sic) kind of man lays his hand on a woman. Loser.”
“Against a woman, yes? Damn coward,” wrote another user.
However, others argued the woman deserved it for hitting the driver’s car.

“No decent woman will do such a thing. Don’t think that because you’re a woman you can bully a guy and then cry and say kena bully,” one Facebook user commented.
“She totally deserved it because she was confrontational in her approach and naturally blew things up,” wrote another user in response to a comment.
“Well done. Give her the same rights and lefts too,” said another user.
