Road rage: Does it worth?

A Thai advertisement on road rage makes me think how easy it is for us to lose control of ourselves and how easy it is for us to be a rational driver.  All it takes is compassion.  Sometimes, when people overtake me on the road, of course I feel shocked and angry but I would say out loud to myself “Perhaps he needs to arrive to certain destination due to nature’s call” [Agaknya dia nak pergi tandas kot].  It does work for me to calm myself and not to get angry with those drivers who drive recklessly.

There are times when I am stressed that I find it hard to stay focused on the road.  So, when this happens I have the tendency to either drive a bit slow or fast especially when I am using Senai-Desaru highway.  But what I don’t understand is there are some drivers who like to tailgate me for no reasons when I drive a bit slow or fast.  Come on, man!  I am not inviting you to have a race with me.  Just leave me alone.

All of us know about the story between the late Arwah Syed Muhammad Danial (Al-Fatihah) and a Mr. Yew Wei Liang.  Perhaps we can learn couples of things from their story and the story in the advertisement.  We need to have the “co-driver” in us [we don’t need other person to remind ourselves, right?]
