A scooter rider attacked two motorists on his way to work because he thought they were being too slow. It's the third random assault case in Kaohsiung just this month.


Heavy traffic emerged in Kaohsiung during peak hours when a male scooter rider kicked another elderly rider's scooter just because he felt this elderly rider was too slow. Luckily, the elderly rider maintained his balance without falling off the scooter.

The traffic is heavy during peak hours. A lot of people are getting off work from Daliao and returning home to Kaohsiung City.

I don't think it's necessary to kick another's scooter. He should've control his temper.

The random assault by the scooter rider happened at 7:30am on the 8th at the intersection of Guangyuan Road and Zhongshan East Road in Fongshan District. Before this happened, 100 meters away from the scene, the scooter rider surnamed Huang attempted to attack a female rider surnamed Liu who was riding with her daughter.

He looked at us first then extended his left hand towards us, but I turned away. It was very scary because I was holding my kid.

He said afterwards that he was in a hurry to get to work, that's why he lost his temper.

The price for assaulting others just to get to work in time was a violation to the Social Order Maintenance Act and the attacker was fined NT$18,000. Two other random assaults also happened in the Fongshan district within this month, which involved a man using slippers to randomly attack people behind the Datong and Fongshan KRTC Metro station. Police have arrested the suspect.



高雄市上班尖峰時段，馬路上湧現不少車流量，一名男騎士覺得前方的長輩騎車太慢，竟然伸出右腳，朝機車踹了過去，幸好老人家左右一陣搖晃後，即時穩住、沒有跌倒。

民眾表示：「上下班(車)多啦，等於在大寮的人，要來高雄(市區)，要下班回去的人多。」

民眾表示：「我是覺得應該不需要到，去踹人的地步啦，因為我覺得，自己的情緒要控制住。」

機車騎士隨機傷人，發生在8號 早上7點半，鳳山區的光遠路和中山東路交叉口，而這名傷人的黃姓騎士，更在距離案發地點不到100公尺的地方，就已經作勢要攻擊，另一名載著女兒的劉姓女騎士。

劉姓女騎士表示：「先看我們，然後就是有伸他的左手要過來，然後我就轉向了。當然很可怕啊，我抱小孩欸。」

高市警察局鳳山分局所長 曾富達表示：「他事後是說，是趕著上班啦，趕著上班心急，所以才一時情緒失控。」

只因為趕上班，心情不好就連續出手傷人，付出的代價，就是被依違反，社會秩序維護法，罰1萬8000元罰鍰。而這個月同樣在鳳山區，高雄大東和鳳山捷運站後方，也發生2起男子持拖鞋隨機攻擊民眾的事件，警方已將人逮捕後移送法辦。
