You know, having observed for a long time now, I know that there
are a lot of motorists out there, who don't know HOW to enter into
or exit from an expressway. But I'd say more, do not know how to
enter onto an expressway.
I usually ease back on my accelerator when approaching the entrance
ramp onto an expressway, letting all the others around me overtake
and squeeze into one tight gaggle of cars, vans, and motorcylces,
all trying to merge onto the expressway. It's always entertaining
to lay back behind and watch the dramas that unfold.
In my opinion, this behavior is sheer stupidity. It's the same with
boarding a bus, or the MRT at any station during peak hours or
weekends. No differences in driving - the habits are the same;
everybody wants to be FIRST.
Always let everyone else rush ahead first, then you can work around
the tangle they get into.
Remember this; Our roads are chocked full with dumb-ass motorists.
So expect dumb-ass driving attitudes.
