Dancing and celebrating with loud honks, they flooded onto the main roads in the city centre, leading to massive traffic jams.
As PH supporters danced euphorically at a busy junction, a car filled with Barisan Nasional (BN) supporters got stuck in a jam.
Not to be outshined, the BN supporters waved their flags from their cars as PH supporters danced and cheered around them.
It was a euphoric scene that could have been mistaken for a Christmas or New Year celebration.
Facebook user Rachel Lai posted the video, which has since gone viral with more than 12,000 shares.

PKR has won only 31 Parliamentary seats out of the 102 they contested.Â
Amanah won eight Parliamentary seats, while Umno has won only 26 Parliamentary seats out of 120 contested.
It all depends on who Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) and Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) will work with.
Both have 22 and six seats, respectively.
GPS, GRS and Warisan, please do the right thing and make scenario 5 happen so PH doesn't have to make deals with devils pic.twitter.com/H2Ik2sF4W4
