KL driver’s attitude
I’ve been driving and riding in KL for more than 6 weeks now. And every
single time I’m on the road, I just pissed off with the attitude of other
drivers. Be it motorcyclists, car, lorry or even pedestrian, I would say more
than 85% of them are really selfish, greedy, reckless and like to do something
foolish to get themselves in danger.
In KL it’s just normal of you being overtake while in queue and I really
hate that. Can you imagine, in a traffic jam, you wait patiently behind a car
then suddenly, in the middle of nowhere, a stupid driver on your left without
signal just intend to cut the queue and go in front of you. Would it be great
if you could just get out of the car with a baseball bat, smash the mirror,
pull the driver out, punch him in the face, and when him lying down, kick him
in the stomach or head like a football and at then at the end of all that, you
spit them in the face, and shout to him "You stupid driver!". That
would be my imagination every time that thing happens to me. But if you think
only male driver do that cut queue act, oohh… no, no, you’re wrong. In KL
even some women drivers do that. I think she doesn’t realize that one day; she
might meet a crazy, hot boil male driver that would do her harm. And if that
thing happens, just pray that some other drivers would come out from their car,
to help her out and ease the situation.
What unique in KL, that selfish and foolish attitude, doesn’t happen to only
vehicle driver. Even pedestrian can be really, really stupid and do things that
can bring danger to them. Don’t they realize that if other drivers didn’t see
them, they might end up in hospital of worse dead? A place where you can
see this stupidity is Jalan Bukit Bintang. If you drive along this road, be
really cautious and concentrate on the pedestrians as well as the motorcyclists,
taxis, lorries and car drivers. Those pretty much like anything that moves on
the road or near its boundary. The pedestrian would just cross the road even
though the traffic light for them clearly shows red and yours is green,
motorcyclist would just push forward, fill up any gaps between the vehicles,
taxis would just stop wherever or whenever they fell like it, lorries would
just move ahead without giving any chance to other vehicle with the attitude
I’m big, so if you mess with me, then its not me who going to get hurt, and
other car drivers would just try to push forward and don’t want to be left
behind. So most of the time along Jalan Bukit Bintang, you can see a bunch of
people who are not stupid on their own, (they owned vehicle or at least have
work) but become stupid when they are being put in a society. Isn’t that
something weird?
I wonder what had happen to our society, which made us so selfish, greedy,
stressful, stupid and doesn’t care about other people and only thinks about
ourselves? Is it because of the road system, pressure living in a city, money,
time, self esteem, education or simply because we just become that fool every
time we behind wheels? Probably if any of you have friends or family who do psychiatric
for living then it’s a good study to find out the root of our current
situation. Then the report must be published on mass media and everyone
who just tired of living like this can do something to rectify the problem.
Together we can become a better society.
