Driving signals

If there's one thing Malaysians lack, its driving courtesy. I mean people here in the UK (and in Aussie too from my experience) almost never fail to stop and give way to other cars or for pedestrians to cross the road. Try crossing the road on a ZEBRA CROSSING in KL and see if the cars stop WITHOUT slamming the horns repeatedly. Hope you don't end up in the hospital.

Interestingly here in the UK, ppl actually flash their lights twice to tell the other car that "hey im slowing down for you so you can cut in front of me". And the other car would say "thank you" by either blinking their harzard lights twice or signal left and right in quick successions (since you can't flash the person behind you). This is stark contrast to our pathetic usage of the 'flash' back home where it means "piss off! you're driving too damn slow!" or "don't cut in front of me yet cause im gonna speed pass you".

I'm gonna try it out when i get back home. Although i'll be expecting more "what the fuck" than "thank you" signals.
