Highways and Byways

Lanjutan daripada cerita SMART tunnel semalam, I nak cerita pasal PL*S highway pulak.. I jarang ke utara, tapi sangat selalu ke selatan..Really hope the construction work can be completed on time because driving south on the highway feels like racing in a rally..Kejap kena himpit ke kiri pastu a few km after that kena himpit ke kanan pulak.. Lepas tu jalan straight luas sampai 3 lanes, pastu a few km after that kena himpit balik ke kiri or kanan. Tak macam rally ke tu? Tak boleh ke buat one side at a time? Maybe tak boleh la kut..Sekarang ni tengah tar balik pulak..Hari tu nampak macam dah nak siap! Sabar je la.. Dah la selalu sangat accident sebab construction ni sejak it started. I read that the completion schedule should be in August 2007. That is another 2 months down the road. Hopefully they will stick to that schedule lah ya?

Pastu, kenapa SmartTag punya lanes kat L*P highways, card reader dia lembab nak recognise the card huh? Dah sampai dekat sangat dengan the barrier baru lah nak angkat. Kalau terlaju sikit sure terlanggar barrier tu.. I tak experience the problem dekat other operators' SmartTag lanes pun? Dah la kalau stuck kat situ punya lah lambat orang nak assist! In fact most of the operators except PL*S ada problem ni..Sabar je la..You guys have just recently increased the toll rates, so I think it is high time that you increase the facilities and the services as well, right? Baru lah adil!

I was once stuck at one of KES*S' SmartTag lanes. Tunggu dekat 3 minit jugak la takde siapa yang datang. So, I honked la, sebab belakang I banyak kereta dah 'Q'. Sekali ada satu mamat ni datang from the opposite lane shouted "SABARLAH!!!" punyala kuat. Kurang ajar sungguh! Rasa macam nak jerit balik, "Woi! Gaji ko aku yang bayar tau!" It was supposed to be the fastest lane, so kalau ada yang stuck and tak diberi assistance yang mantap dan cekap, dah jadi NOT-SO-SMARTTag dah la, kan?
