I’ve been driving legally for 2 years and illegally? 3 years I guess….have been pulled over by the police (and adorable policewoman) two times without being summoned… had pushed kelisa almost up to ‘her’ limit without having realized that the tire was almost botak… so, I would say that I’m quite a driver with such experiences… at least for semi-auto and auto transmission….this post might be a little bit offensive and some would rather say that hakim is purely sexist… but the fact that now I hit the pedal everyday gives me an inspiration to post this blog….it is more on responsibility though because the road is not quite safe… years of driving taught me how to differentiate the behavior of male and female driver and I would say that is very EASY! Yes, male driver also make silly mistakes like going on the wrong way, speeding and etc.… but I find that the way male drivers make mistakes is different from female drivers even the mistake is the same… for example, when a car driving out from a junction without looking at cars coming from the main road, I can easily trace whether it is a male or female driver….usually, a male drivers wave their hands to say sorry but for female drivers? NEVER! They drive out from the junction and make that not-guilty-faces like they did not do any crime…then they will drive in front slowly ….i bet that they are afraid since they make mistake but egoism disallow them to show their sorry…. It is an obvious logic when you come into a main road, you have to follow the flow of traffic of the main road and do not create your own flow at 40kmph… but for male drivers, once they suddenly drive into the main road, you can hardly see them again because usually they will speed up and gone… another thing is I found that female drivers do not know how to adapt the flow of the traffic….they speeding at roads they should not be speeding and drive slowly at the right lane where they should let some smoke out of the exhaust… oh yeah, by the way, this slow-at-the-right-lane case is a norm at Terengganu….no offense but it’s the truth… another situation is when a car is moving in a wrong way (opposite of jalan sehala)…. usually if the car is moving at high speed at the very edge of the road, it is a male driver…. It is quite dangerous but at least the driver knows it is wrong to drive at the wrong way so he quickly drives through the road and again, disappear…. But if you see a car doing the same thing, but now the car is in the middle of the road moving with ultra slow speed, it’s a female driver…. Usually, she will hold the steering with both hands tightly (I can see this even through tinted windows) and she will look scared… everyone knows it is wrong to drive in a wrong way and everyone does that…it is just a matter of getting caught by a police… if you are caught, then it is your problem, but if you are not, please do it quickly and do not trouble other drivers… do crime confidently as nobody will care about you if it does not cause any difficulty to anyone…honestly, I do not really like the fact that there are a lot of female drivers nowadays… yes, male drivers also give troubles (especially Toyota unser and surprisingly, a man who drive this annoying car usually has a long beard and wearing a ketayap)….but, female drivers give more trouble!....my advice to female drivers : drive quickly and do not put too much strain on the steering wheel because you will lose focus on the condition of the traffic….
Note of the day > real drivers never talk about perodua kelisa…it is just amazingly indescribable…
