"Following the footage circulating on social media titled 'An individual in Istanbul blocked the path of a driver who honked at him and punched his window,' an investigation was conducted by our Traffic Inspection Branch teams regarding the images.

It was observed that the individual in question stopped another vehicle in moving traffic, walked toward its driver, and attempted to cause a disturbance.
