turn signal light

qfnm-1044646-1

While driving to work this morning, I thought about Munir. I kept praying that he will survive and strong going through this. I just want him to keep trying and never give up. At the same time, something happen that caught my attention.

I was at a junction near my house. A car came and it was quite fast. I was very late and thought that he would just go straight but no, he turned to the junction that I was waiting, giving him way.

I was so mad.

Why?

He didn’t use his turn signal light at all. If you don’t use it, why bother put it on your car or wasting your money buying it?

Is this only Malaysian’s behavior?

  1. I hate drivers who don't use the signal light. As if we can read their minds!

    I am also irritated by drivers who put the right signal when they want to turn left. How can this possibly happen?

  8. I feel the only way to solve the Malaysian way of driving is to be courteous and follow the rules. Hopefully, it'll catch on.

  10. foong - yes me too foong. hate them so much! sometime i even honk them to release my anger. at least i remind them about the turn signal light that they should use or maybe forgot to use. it can be very dangerous!

    those who give right and turn left should be a new driver or seldom drive. most of them usually are drunk drivers :)

    adila - agree dila. what make the matter worse is when you hit them, automatically you will be compounded RM300 doesn't matter whose fault because you hit them from the behind. so unfair :(
