A Malaysian driver named Nabil said a double-parked car left him stranded for more than 10 hours, blocking his vehicle from around 12.30pm until 11pm, according to a report published by The Vibes on 2026-05-02. [1]
Nabil said the car had not been left in neutral, making it impossible to move even after attempts to release the handbrake. He said he tried other ways to alert the owner, including honking for 10 minutes and leaving a note. [1]
The obstruction forced him to use Grab to get to and from work at his own expense, which he said cost RM53. He later said the incident turned into a lesson after people online told him to call police and arrange for the car to be towed if it happened again. [1]
The situation was eventually resolved after another affected driver contacted police. The episode also sparked online discussion about inconsiderate and illegal parking practices. [1]
