Peace be upon you. Now I would like to share my experience to be in the highway in Malaysia. Firstly, lots of Malaysian drivers are rude, regardless the vehicle they are using. Want proof? Just get yourself in a traffic jam and BAM!! you got it. It's been quite a long time since I last travel on highway. A lot have changed...
Lets start.My family and I are supposed to go to Taiping, Perak from Bukit Jelutong, Selangor. First 45 minutes of travelling is fine so far since there are no cars. Then, when the highway starts to get busy, the first pack of rogue drivers starts to show off. Most of them are prestigious cars Such as a Cayenne, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Audi. They drove as if thew own the road. Driving on emergency lane, and as usual, over speed limit. Another thing that bothers me is that it is very difficult for them to give signals before changing lanes.
Second scene, we saw a lorry was swaying left and right, on first thought... is he sleepy? Yes. As our car overtake him, all of us saw he is shaken off his sleepiness. Man that is dangerous. As we approach Ipoh, the traffic is kinda congested. Wanna now why? it was an uphill road AND both lane was canquered by lorries and buses (they should only be on the left lane). One word to describe this; SELFISH. after the hill climb, there was another lorry that was selfish as well and switched lane without signal and it almost hit the car right in front of us. It is a Mercedes Benz Sports you know? Then of course the Benz driver got pissed off and the moment he overtakes the lorry, he winds down the mirror and shows the finger. Damn. Haha
That is for the trip to Taiping. The trip going back home is quite short. There was a terrible traffic jam at highway. What's even worse, some scumbags starts to use the emergency lane for quick travel. That is wrong on every aspects. it they got stuck in the emergency lane, what if the ambulance that are on the way to the rescue scene are stuck because of these person? I think the ambulance can't get to the scene at time and the patient might be dead. So practically the "scumbags" are murderer. They don't deserve to live to me. Fortunately, the cops are stationed at the highway and the caught some of the scumbags who are using the emergency lane for selfish purposes. Good one cops!! So that is the gist of my trip going to and from Taiping.
