On a busy road...
-
U were drivin... JUs after office hours... Traffic v heavy...
In the lane u were travellin in... U realise tat bit by bit, everyone starts to change lane...
A. Will u follow suit n change lane?
B. Jus continue on ur course?
C. U still dunno or haven't notice anythin yet?
For me, i didn't really realise... Until quite sometimes later, i start to ponder why almost every one is switchin lanes...
Only when i come to there then i realise... got an obstruction on tat side... So all the cars have to switch lane...
By the time i reach there n realise, too late... ENd up stop there, wait till got chance to move off...
MOral of story:
Sometimes mus be a copy cat... But copy smart! People do, u follow... Sure got somethin de! Provided is many many cars doin the same thing!
Eh... Don mind, please choose an option A, B, or C hor! Thks! -
When you're driving, keep an eye open for traffic at least 3 cars ahead of you and one lane left and right. Don't be so Kiasu that you must squeeze in till the last sec before changing lanes when you need to. Same thing applies on not busy roads as well as highways.
-
uh... forgot to add. So it's partly A and partly B. -
B for me, i will stick to my lane when im travelling along expressway unless some obvious obstruction ahead of me
but i will squeeze my way out along heavy packed causeway
but ALWAYS .... SAFETY FIRST -
Last time enter expressway filter one lane... den another.... den all the way until my destination den filter left and filter out again..... now is.... enter expressway directly filter 3 lanes and go on the extreme right lane..... reaching destination den filter another 3 lanes out..... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....... i need someone to slap my out of my bad habits.....

i think is A for me ... cause there was once .. heavy rain then i was travelling around 120km/h along TPE ... cannot see anything except the Blue G9 corolla infront of me .... then he change lane ... i just continue ... after a while i saw one car that is infront of me .. knn is a stationary one!!!!!
Got to jam brake .... but too fast ... almost hit the front then got chance to change lane ... cause the other lane got other cars
I learnt my lesson ... next time heavy rain .. follow ppl switch lane ... -
busy road will be A
coz cant see whats ahead, better to follow then to be kay kiang -
one important thing to mention.... ask a noob driver you're more likely to be concered about the road conditions around u. sometimes.... you gotta relax, talk to the passenger beside you, and keep you eyes open for road signs to help u.....
