Mirians Drive on the Right Lane.

Yes. You read that correctly. Mirians like driving on the right side of the road, because they think they are Americans..


Majority of them also drive like this.

They're all expert drivers, don't need to keep eyes on the road.

They also go 25km/h in the 90km/h zone. Because they're the expert.

Didn't help that our roads are bumpy. I mean, the ones in town are OK - if not sandy and littered with trash... but the connecting roads to Brunei are a terrible roller coaster ride. And one may argue that the town is what's important, but then again, the first thing the Bruneians experience is hitting the roof of their car multiple times, then that's the image Miri got them. Bruneians are tourists too, you know.


In summary, Mirians don't know how to drive. They blow past stop signs and don't know how to read road lines, and it actually gets worse over time as these drivers then teach new drivers the incorrect methods.

I blame the driving instructors. And don't forget the "Kopi-O" license schools too.
