Get Off the Highways!
SharePosted on 01. Feb, 2007 by Gallivanter in Gripes
I’ve been wanting to write about this for months now, somehow, never had the motivation to do it. But, enough’s enough! Over the last couple of months, Federal Highway, have been deluged by crackbrained motorcyclists whizzing between vehicles when there is a motorcycle lane available for them.
These bunch of buttheads think they’re invincible, and I won’t be surprised if they get run over by vehicles switching lanes. And if they do, I’d be the first one pulling over to lend a clapping hand. A big nuisance. Rempit wannabes flaunting in a joke of a motorcycle, disregarding the dangers around them. Moronious buffoonious.
If you’re a motorcyclist, please tell those imbeciles to get themselves off the highway before somebody gets hurt!

Motorcyclists are the ones most at risk on the road. Just what are they thinking?

JACQ I would do just that. I’m waiting.
And when a tragic event happen, only then the Govt will intervene.
Sha It’s shocking to say the least!
Rudy Grrrrr…why oh why did they reduce the road tax of motorcycles to RM2?

I agree with you. I saw one kapchai on the fast lane. What aren’t they using the motorcycle lane?
If we knocked into one of them, who is in the wrong? Are we wrong for knocking into a vehicle which is not suppose to be on the highway? Its a tragedy waiting to happen. Then the authorities will only act. MALAYsia Boleh!

its a cheap mode of transportation hence the government just impose RM 2.00 for the administration fee (thats what they call it). Technically, road tax is free for motorcycle. For vehicles below 1000cc, its RM30.00 for cars like Kelisa, Kancil etc. And thats cheap too.
Now we know why there are so many cars on the road and thus many people resort to motorcycle for a convenient ride into the city.
Every class of road transport have their daredevils. Motorcycles we have the rempits, cars we have the Fast and Furious drifters look-alike and 4×4 we have some urban camel trophy contestants. The worst are the lorry drivers. If their ride is unloaded or without the trailer, a prime mover can scare the shit of of you. Ever being tailed by a prime mover (without the trailer)?
Bus drivers? Still remember the Mercedes Benz buses named BMW which terrorized the road of the city and yet the favaourite of all who are late for appointment/work ?

Last Saturday i passed an accident involving a Crane and a motorcyclist. It was on the federal highway from Klang just before the Kg Jawa Toll. motor = 0 , crane = 50…. motorcyclist was pan caked…… horrible..
There was a complain about this in the star some time ago… and the reply was that most of the motorcycle lanes are being upgraded and the authorities will only enforce the law once it is completed…
god only know when that will be…
