OMG! I don't understand how people drive to and fro KL everyday and especially those who have been doing that for the past few years to decades!! I only started work in KL last Monday and I am already at my wit's end.
No offense meant but there are LOTs of idiot drivers on the road and sad to say, majority of Malaysians ARE asshole drivers. Don't mean to sound crude and mean but that is an absolute fact!
Let me list you a few types of asshole drivers and you be the judge if you are one. If you are, slap yourself real hard for me!
Nah.. kidding. =p
If you fit any of it, think of others. Please be considerate and civic minded whilst you drive.
ASSHOLE DRIVERS #1 - NEVER UTILISE INDICATORS
I am sure designers and manufacturers didn't put blinkers/indicators in a car just for fun. It's meant for one to signal when one intends to belok kiri (malay for turn left) or belok kanan (turn right)! But you realise in Malaysia, probably 80% or ever more DON'T indicate when they plan to switch lanes or turn into a junction.
which brings me to...
ASSHOLE DRIVERS #2 - INDICATE AT THE VERY LAST MINUTE
After complaining about the above, I now have a bone to pick with those who actually DO put their indicators BUT they put it at the very last minute. Perhaps a second just before they turn.
What's the point??!! If one was following behind and at a fast speed, one might not able to hit the brakes in time. And the whole purpose of an indicator is to forwarn people EARLIER that you intend to slow down and make a turning.
ASSHOLE DRIVERS #3 - KIASU DRIVERS
This batch of asshole drivers don't like to give way and ESPECIALLY when people put their indicators to signal an intention to switch lanes. The worst part is, they themselves actually want to switch lanes but instead of letting that person switch to their lanes and vice versa, they have to zooooom to the front to overtake. I wonder what satisfaction do they derive from that.
ASSHOLE DRIVER #4 - ZOOMS LEFT AND RIGHT AND STICKS CLOSE TO YOUR CAR'S BUTT
I dub this category of drivers as the F1wannabes. Their car always go VROOOM VROOOM and they love to stick close to the back of your car as a so-called-hint that they want to overtake you. This category normally belongs to the LALAs (aka unfashionable Asians??) that modifies their car for better performance and those that drive big and flashy cars.
But HELLO... it's Malaysia for crying outloud. Our roads are ALWAYS jam! Thanks to idiot drivers like you.
There are so many more to mention but I shall leave that for another time. My point here is in Malaysia, we're not taught to be civic minded. Instead, we memorise silly values during so-called-moral lessons throughout our schooling life but we do not apply it nor live it.
If everyone just stick to their lanes instead of always cutting left and right or give way to others, I think our jams will ease somewhat. Something for you all to consider.
