Whenever a traffic jam occurs, we are often tempted to skip the traffic by driving in the motorcycle lane (but, don't do this please).

A driver learned their lesson after wasting time for themselves and others when they got stuck in a motorcycle lane.

According to a video submitted to Stomp, the driver was travelling to Johor Bahru through the Woodlands checkpoint in Singapore when they decided to cut into the motorcycle lane.

Due to the driver's refusal to follow traffic rules, their car caused a traffic jam along the highway, with many vehicles building up behind them. 

The incident is believed to have occurred at 6.30am on Tuesday, 28 February.

Unable to proceed further in the motorcycle lane, the driver was forced to turn out and join the car pathway

However, for unknown reasons, the driver was unable to navigate their way out of the lane and Singapore Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) officers had to step in to help.

Witnessing the fiasco was the person who submitted the video to the Singaporean daily. In the background, the disgruntled man can be heard saying, "This driver, can tell is damn dumb."

The driver reportedly held up traffic since 4am.
