Are traffic rules strictly respected or enforced in Malaysia?

Are there any unspoken rules, unexpected habits or regulations that you had to adapt to?

Are the roads safe and well-maintained?

Are there specific times of day, weather conditions, or seasons that make driving more dangerous?

If you have children, do you feel comfortable letting them travel alone on local roads, whether on foot, by bike, or motorbike?

Road safety is good in Malaysia. The roads are very good and people generally follow the rules. Lived here for 12 years and drove my car here for 7 years and never had any accidents or even near misses.


Only problem is traffic jams during rush hour, and the very boring drive to the airport from downtown KL.
