A woman is turning to Facebook to seek justice for her father, who she claims to have been viciously attacked by a fellow motorist in a road rage incident along Upper Serangoon Road on Wednesday.

Her 67-year-old dad — a full-time driver with Grab and the family’s breadwinner — was said to have gotten into an altercation with a driver of a Volvo sedan, apparently due to a misunderstanding over a parking lot. The dad was waiting for an available lot in his car, and Volvo driver wasn’t able to move out from the lot for some reason. Volvo driver then gets out his car and tells the dad to move his car even though it wasn’t blocking the way at all, says the daughter.

Blocked or not, it definitely didn’t deserve the sudden barrage of attacks upon her dad. The Volvo driver allegedly started to pummel her father, who then tried to use an air-freshener in his car to spray his assailant with during the unexpected fracas. Said air-freshener however was grabbed by Volvo driver, and that was used to hit the dad’s face repeatedly to the point of deep laceration.

The attacker then attempted to drive off, but the dad managed to reverse his car and block the Volvo from escaping. The police were called in later on, and he was conveyed to Tan Tock Seng Hospital later on. “He’s still being under observation by the attending doctor,” the daughter noted.

She explains further that the assailant has yet to make any compensation for damages or even visited her injured father.

“As we did not manage to capture the face of the assailant or his particulars, therefore we seek all our friends here to share this post and hope that we are able to trace him.”
