      Some driver are just rushing even with people crossing... Got ramps also can drive very fast. 😓

      Especially those driving posh or expensive continental cars like BMW. They think they own the road as well and totally disregard for pedestrian on the roads. They really have ego problem.

      🤷 Why must people generalise like that?[/quote]Because I live to tell you this. I encountered so many instances myself so I can say this. Come to parking, anywhere, their mentality is the same.

        Yesterday got one driving truck also driving very fast. Maybe showing off driving skill?


        BMW stands for \"Mian Ta You\" (No need petrol) ! and i think if one is driving a posh car, he should drive SLOWLY so that people can admire how posh the car is mah ... 😂

            Zoom??? Haha at 90km/hour. Frankly.... their ferrari is only for show and not for zooming due to our speed limit.

              It is an accident camera that is usually hung under the mirror. Auto recording. Usually only replayed in an accident to see if people cut your lane or didnt signal etc etc...


              Actually, pedestrians have to be really careful. After i started driving, then i do realise that even as a slow driver, there are times where cars / people are in your blind spot. Most scary is where impatient drivers want to cut u from behind when u are actually slowing down because u saw a pedestrian crossing in front of u.
              Another dangerous road users are cyclist. At zebra crossing, they would just cycle past without stopping to check the traffic. How dangerous..... as sometimes driver cannot stop in time.

                  Maybe we should send all cyclists to learn traffic rules and must have a license to cycle before they are allowed to be on the road .

                    We can be safe drivers but if the drivers/motorists/cyslists around us are reckless… well… how safe can we be then ?

                      it was reported that the driver did not know he knocked down the lady and continued to drive until a motor-cyclist honked and shouted at him :yikes:

                        I think you also got ego problem ..... negative side ...... why only BMW ? How about the WRX, the Kia Koup ? all the boy racers wannabes ?

                        by over generalisation, you betray your own mentality on this issue
