Bad habits die hard…
Recently, a video went viral on social media of a driver shamelessly throwing his rubbish out of his car at a congested traffic light intersection, believed to be in Shah Alam.

Furious with the driver’s action, Dr. Wan Johan Ariff who shared the video on his Facebook page, who happened to be driving an ambulance bravely got out of the vehicle to pick up the rubbish.
He then approached the car and was seen saying a few words to the driver before throwing the rubbish back into the car.
Amazingly, a lorry driver in front of the car was also about to do the same as he was seen in the video getting out of his lorry and heading towards the car.
The video has since garnered over 306 thousand views, 6,900 likes and 940 comments at the time of writing.

Well done, Malaysians!
Remember, guys, littering is bad for the environment!
It wastes our natural resources, and when cans, plastics and bottles are discarded on the roadside instead of being recycled, more resources must be used to create new cans and bottles from new materials.
So, let’s start reusing, reducing and recycling for a cleaner and greener environment!
