Stupid traffic police


It has been a week since the last time i hit the gym in the morning before turning up for work and due to the sales target i have to achieve for March, I've been staying late at work till 10 pm almost everyday for a week now.

I finally had enough sleep yesterday and manage to wake up earlier for gym today, only to realize the traffic horror along ALL roads; major, trunk, back lanes, everywhere!!

The culprit? Traffic police!

For the past few days traffic was heavy but moving without them. Everytime when they took over the role of traffic lights the situation went downhill rightaway with poor synchronizing at different junctions.

A classic example is the junction that merges Jalan Bukit Bintang with Jalan Raja Chulan behind Pavilion. With the lights, traffic is smooth because it's green only for either side of the traffic. Where our traffic police allows both traffic flow at the same time and direction. If you're trying to head left into Jalan Perak infront of Cosway and Novotel, you can forget about it. (with malaysian road etiquette in addition.)

This is not the first time traffic police creating jams everywhere. Please, leave it to the traffic lights if you're not properly trained.
