Have you ever been caught in a situation where by the car in front of you seem to really annoy you no matter what he or she is doing? Well take that and X10 and you will know how it feels to drive in KL streets. I have been driving for quite some time and I drive a lot to be frank. I might not be the best of drivers but no matter what happens, this would happen to you at least once a week where ever you’re from. Let me explain to you what I mean:
Many drivers in KL own local made cars (proton wira). They would modify the cars with big ass mufflers and drive like a maniac around the streets. The funny thing is no matter how loud it may sound, the car does not seem to be going much faster than yours.
People who change their head lamp bulbs to HID's. If you’re wondering what are HID's, go Google it. Basically they are freaking bright lights. They would flash it at you like crazy if you are driving slightly slower than them on a fast lane.
ENDLESS TRAFFIC JAM's everywhere you go. Recently, the company I worked for has shifted its office to a new location from KL to PJ. No matter which route I take to go to work, I CAN NEVER! let me repeat NEVER AVOID THE JAM!
Malaysian habits:
Driving in the middle of the lane at break neck speeds of 10kmh. Surprising other drivers by turning and cutting into lane's without signaling, according to my GF it is too expensive to signal.
Cutting in and out of traffic cues as and when they see fit.
Horning like there is no tomorrow even when they are in the parking lot.
Double, Triple, Quadruple park everywhere.
Yelling, shouting, pointing, screaming, middle fingering everyone for no apparent reason at all
Lastly Malaysians love to drive as tough they are driving a Ferrari.
STUPID car stickers exp. Honk if your horny, Don’t follow me because I am lost, BACK OFF and so on and so forth has become a car accessory favorite
Blasting their car stereo's to the max. If you ever hear any loud banging trance music blasting away "DUSH DUSH DUSH !" it’s probably it, so don’t be worried, they did not set up a new club right next to you.
Breaking their cars from 100 - 0kmh in 0.000000000001 sec. The world best car breaking system is tested here.
So the next time you drive on the road, try and recall all those things I have just mentioned. Maybe it's worth a laugh or two.
