The Car Hierarchy

Whenever I drive on the highway, I realise that we have a hierarchy depending on the type of car we drive.

I drive a Wira 1.5 SE (I know I always pretend its a Ferrari but lets get real for a bit, solely for the purpose of this blog). When I drive on the right lane, I only give way to faster cars that are more expensive than mine (unless they are REALLY fast of course). And I notice that these drivers expect me to, just like how I expect owners of Proton Sagas, other Wiras and the whole Perodus range to make way for me!

I automatically move over to the middle when the car behind me is a Toyota, Accord or Merc. And these big guys give way to bigger guys with a BMW, Audi or Lexus, who in turn respect Jaguars, Hummers, Rolls Royces and Ferraris.

But of course everyone has to make way for the humble ambulance la. Oh and dont forget the 'privileged people' who have (unnecessary) police outriders!

Also, I notice that Malaysians generally dont like it when a Singaporean car tries to overtake, and ignore the flashing headlights (which are by the way, EXTREMELY rude).

Sometimes its the Kancils and Kelisas and Vivas which flash their lights - like as if their engines are more powerful than mua! Quite annoying. So macam bagus! Boleh blah!
