Legend has it that the reptile has yet to cross the road.

In this video, a stuck lizard tries to cross a busy road.

Terrified by the loud noises and fast vehicles, the reptile pauses in the middle and engages in an intense stare-down with a driver.

Realising that the animal would not move, a bus driver alights from his bus and tries to shoo the lizard away gently.

Noticing the commotion, two cyclists join in by clapping their hands loudly to guide the reptile to a safer spot.

Their efforts prove to be successful as the lizard starts to shuffle slowly to the back of the car.

The bus driver then gets back and slowly drives away, with the poor reptile stuck underneath it.

It is unclear if the driver knew of the animal's presence before driving away.

With the help of the cyclists, the lizard manages to cross the first half of the road.

It then stops at the road divider and seeks solace by climbing up a tree.

The cyclist who posted the video hopes that the animal will be able to cross the second half of the road safely.

What type of lizard is this?

According to a quick Google search, it seems that the lizard in question is, in fact, a green iguana.

Native to Mexico, southern Brazil and Paraguay, the common green iguana has been found in the wild in Singapore and Thailand. The most likely explanation for this is due to the international reptile trade.

These lizards can grow up to 1.7m long and are unsuitable as pets in urbanised high-rise apartments.
