A family man and a government worker got into a fight on the road that was caught on video and is now going viral on social media.
The video shows a black Toyota Corolla with tinted windows and a green licence plate getting in the way of a black Suzuki Wagon R with a private licence plate. The driver of the second car took a video of the government official, who can be seen pushing him and making threats.
The driver of the black Wagon R was with a teenager who was also caught in the crossfire of words.
The driver of Wagon R said that the Corolla was entering the lane from the wrong side, which, of course, did not make it into the video. But millions of people who use social media have seen the government official’s careless actions and criticised them.

A Fake Number Plate: The registration number for the Corolla is GP-561, but the word “Sindh” is written below the number. It’s important to note that the federal government has numbers in the GP series, but Sindh only has numbers in the GS series.
We looked up this registration number in the federal and Sindh excise databases. The date of registration is needed by the federal database, which makes it hard to check.
But, strangely, the Sindh database didn’t have any information about the number, which means it’s probably a fake.
