The video begins with a view of a busy street intersection, which a sign identifies as Manor Park. The focus then shifts to a man dressed in traditional attire, riding a decorated white horse. He is accompanied by a person leading the horse. Behind him is a procession of luxury cars with people holding colourful smoke bombs out the windows and sunroofs.

What did social media say?

A third commented, “They have no respect; everything belongs to them.” A fourth wrote, “The people behind the cars behind cannot see properly. If English people did it, they would probably get arrested.” Several people claimed that the wedding party was either from India or Pakistan.

In a separate incident, a video of a groom walking in the middle of heavy traffic went viral a few months ago. The footage captured a man dressed in traditional attire stranded in a jam trying to catch up to his own wedding procession.
