Malaysia Cars, No Safety First?

I’m sure everyone knows this really short yet important phrase, “Safety First”. It’s on the TV, radios, public community service announcement and whatnot. I remembered the “Don’t Drink and Drive” advertisement on TV when I was young. Its message is clear, it conveys the danger of driving when you’re high on alcohol.




Sadly, our Malaysian national car makers is not practicing safety first. As I know, if you want a car with maximum safety, you have to pay more for it. All those safety features that is the standard in the US is something premium for the Malaysian. Air Bags is a standard safety features for cars in the US. Malaysian car? It’s not. It’s in the premium edition.

Looks like those car makers couldn’t care less about the drivers’ safety eh? Well, I’m not saying Malaysian drives car like barbarian, knocking down street lamps and trees by the road, and then blame the car makers for all the deaths caused in a car accident. No. I just think that it is unreasonable for the consumer to pay more to get a car with at least air bags.

I should be glad because safety belt is part of the standard safety feature in Malaysian car. If I were to pay more just to get safety belt in my car, I am not so buying Malaysian car in future.
