JOHOR, MALAYSIA — A video of a young man being intimate with his girlfriend in a car went viral on social media, eliciting various reactions from netizens.
A 22-second video uploaded on Twitter, shows the couple were caught in the indecent act in a car park at an undisclosed location which appears to be a public car park.
The person who recorded the video and another friend approached the car to get a closer look and found the man sitting in the front passenger seat while his girlfriend, wearing the uniform from the Malaysian Red Crescent Society (PBSM), was “sitting” on his lap.
When asked what they were doing, the driver claimed that the girl was “sick”.
“Just… tint your window darker alright?” the person who recorded the video advised the young driver, while the latter requested him to delete the video.

However, on social media, netizens commented that the man is taking advantage of his girlfriend who appears to be underaged.
A Twitter user wrote: “The kid is clearly underage.. should immediately report it.”
“@PDRMsia, they committed an indecent act in a public area. Please take action,” another user tagged Malaysia’s police page.
