An Indian woman living in Singapore, Kritika Jain, shared a video showing a lone pedestrian waiting patiently for the signal to turn green at 1 am, despite the road appearing completely empty.

Sharing the video, Jain reflected on what she believes is a deeply ingrained culture of rule-following in Singapore.
“I don't know if it's a habit, discipline, or just how people are wired. It's such a small thing, but it says a lot!” she wrote in the caption.
