Driving around town

If there’s an award called ‘Top 10 World Worst Driver’ then Malaysian will sure be among the tops. Driving instructor only teach us basic driving skills until we meet them …


The Cutter
Immediately cut in from the right lane to make a turning on the left and cause you to step on your break so that these idiots don’t knock your car in the middle of the road!


The Fast & Furious
Not qualified to enter F1, so they terrorize highways with their re-vamp cars. They will suddenly appear out of nowhere and zip-zap along the lanes to show off their skills.


The Q-Jumper
Why queue up when you can easily go right up to the front and cut it? Double line? What double line? Other drivers will sure give way one. Who cares if the others have been following rules and queuing up for the past 1 hour? Duh!


The Slow-Mow
Drive at 30 km/hour on the fastest lane at the highway when 10 others car are following from behind. This is probably because their ancestors used to tar the road so they think it belongs to their clan!


The Tailgater
They like to follow closely even if you are driving according to the normal traffic flow. They will flash their lights and horn so that you can move to the side and let them pass! Piles up accidents are no thanks to this kind of brainless fools.


The Uncle
The last time they drove around town is 50 years ago when the traffic is no traffic at all. The only jam they knew existed is strawberry jam. So when they attempted to hit the road with their well kept Austin, to them it’s just a leisure Sunday drive on a Monday morning. Thank your guiding angel when they happen to be in front of you la.


The Harley-Davidson wannabe driving kapchai
Some motorcyclist (especially young chaps) never sticks to one lane but likes to cuts in and out between traffic. They can hit at your bumper or side mirror even if you have stop in front of the traffic light! The only reason they survive so long is because their luck is still by their side and they don't know how to write one word - DEAD!


The Road Blocker
This type of motorcyclist rides slowly in the middle lane where traffic is zooming on the left and right lane. You are stuck behind them … hoping they will move to the left side and let you pass! But they will not budge because they think nobody dare to hit them!


The Pedestrians
Their cross the roads without looking left or right. They love to cross below the pedestrian bridge. They will cross half way, stand in between traffic and wait for car to stop for them. And the best part is they take their own sweet time to crawl over and you have to slow down to avoid knocking them.


The Road Bully
Just because they are driving big buses and they can just cut into your lane. The stop whenever they feel like picking up a passenger even if the bus stop is just 10 meters away. Nothing you can do to stop them unless you drive a vehicle bigger than the bus!


The Irritating Taxi Fellas
Just stop whenever, wherever they like ... as long as there are passengers flagging at them. Cut into your lane without indicator. Horn at you when your speed are slightly below 80 km/h. What's their problem? Because you are blocking them from reaching their destination using the fastest route and picking up another passenger!


The Double-Parker
They can't walk. They must get out of their car in front of the hawker stall, shopping mall and shops. No. They don't care. Must park right there. Double-park la what else. All cars have to slow down to avoid 'kissing' the double-parker. I always hope that one big truck will come by and just knock the car to the other side of the road. That will be a scene to remember!


Driving will be such a breeze if not because of these selfish people out there. When can they learn to respect others on the road? I guess nothing will change in the next 10 years. And I don't agree that all women driver should be banned from driving because men can equally be as bad! So be cautioned on the road and drive smart folks.
