[QUOTE="FVel, post: 2741955, member: 48425"] It's a general term, meaning no matter where they come from, people who had lived in KL for a while will end up adjusting to the KL style and adopting methods that work in that particular area. It's the same with me when I returned from Australia, and so it will be with GTi here who recently came home from Sydney. When I came back and started driving in Ipoh, it was a madhouse. There is a multi-lane main road here that has a longish curve when it bends to the right in front of Parkson Mall / SamTet High School and in the middle of the turn, every Ipoh driver will (if a lane is avaialble) cut to the next lane to his immediate right WITHOUT SIGNAL. It used to drive me bonkers because if you stuck to your lane (which you are supposed to), the guy alongside will end up sideswiping you. Since there is nothing that could be done to change people's habits, the safest thing to do is to fall back if someone is alongside you and give him room to cut in front and across you during the turn. What can I say, people are just lazy to take the corner properly and because everyone started doing the same thing, it has become customary to drive like that. [/QUOTE]
