Living in Malaysia, we deal with bad traffic every single day, especially if you live in places like Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur. It feels like every single car in Malaysia has joined you on the highway at the same time. You wonder what you've done to deserve a slow death like this. Just can't understand it. How can a five-lane highway like NKVE become so packed?
1. Taking too long to budge when the light turns green
2. Slowing down to take a closer look at accidents
3. Being totally unprepared at the toll gate
4. Going too slow on the fast lane
5. Constantly switching lanes on the road
6. Overcrowding during peak hours![]()

Research done by Boston Consulting Group (BCG) states that people living in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia averagely stuck in the jam for 53 minutes per day and in total, 13.4 days for a year. That's a shocking amount of time! Imagine how many routines or errands could be done with that.
Not forgetting the loss in productivity with all these dreaded congestions and it might take a very long time to just go out and get yourself a meal after work.

The cause: Inadequate green time that ranges from 5 seconds to 10 seconds and taking too long to move from a stationary position.

The cause: If every driver were to be rubbernecking for the next 10 minutes by slowing down to 20km/h, you can be sure that a long line of cars will form with ease in no time.

3. Being totally unprepared at the toll gate

The cause: Taking too long to go through the toll gate by digging up for spare change at the last minute and inconveniencing others at the automated lanes.
4. Going too slow on the fast lane

The cause: Driving way below the speed limit of the fast lane that is meant for overtaking. In countries like the US, driving too slow on the fast lane could slap you with a USD1,000 penalty
5. Constantly switching lanes on the road

The cause: Excessive lane changing tends to disrupt traffic flow and makes the traffic worse.

The cause: Too many cars on the road. Narrow roads without enough capacity to accommodate heavy traffic and ill town planning could also worsen things.
