Highway driving, I find it very tiring these days on balik kampong journey and return to KL after that. Lot’s of road hogger on a heavy traffic. Left lane with very slow cars and lorries & right lane with them. On fastest lane of three lanes also got them. That’s why I always plan my time to drive only at non peak hours. But sometimes; I cannot avoid peaks hours and have to deal with them. What you’ll do on this circumstance?
Do you:
- Just follow them patiently and hoping when the time comes they change lane. OR
-Tailgate and flashing high beam OR
-Zigzag driving. (I dare not to try this, my balls is not titanium grade enuff: P)
Any other tips?
If I were in your situation, in the first instance, I always avoid any tolled highway and take the trunk, secondary, tertiary roads. I'm a strong believer that on M'sian roads, the furthest route tends to be the faster route and the shortest route is guaranteed the most time consuming stress inducing route
But truly, if in exact situation like you...already taken tolled highway and get stuck in traffic as you described above, there really is nothing much I can do but to keep up with the flow and look out for the next available toll exit/interchange to enable me to continue the journey by the trunk/secondary/tertiary route
