Retards on the road
I have a bone to pick here. I hate drivers who cannot wait their turn and start jumping the queue with all their stunts of weaving through traffic and cutting in wherever it pleases them. I absolutely loathe them.
Perhaps they are in an emergency. Their wives or the lady drivers themselves may be giving birth in the car. Or they may be suffering from fits and therefore their ridiculously impatient driving is nothing but a result of their involuntary control of the wheel. Maybe they have one hour left to live and they have to get home to write their will before they are gone forever.
Despite the plausibility of them all, it is reasonable to think that the majority of such drivers (if not ALL) do not possess such excuses. It is always instant gratification for them. It is a Me Me Me world and such 'It's my world and you are just living in it' mentality that gets everyone.
For the patient drivers, this would just serve to remind them that civility and propriety has no place on Malaysian roads. It 'cut' or 'be cut'.
For the impatient drivers, this will only encourage them even more as they see that they are not the only ones performing such selfish acts. 'If they can do it, why can't i?' Or 'If I don't do it, they will just do it anyway, so I might as well...' 'If you can't beat 'em, then join 'em!'
51 years of independence have done nothing much for the mentality of these drivers, if anything at all. It only serves to remind them that they need to get to where they're going faster than ever before.
