How it's like to drive in Malaysia: Driving on the wrong side of the road! - MALAYSIA TRAVEL VLOG
We are on a road tip across Malaysia!
We left Kuantan today along with @Ken Abroad and @Travelgramers to head west through Pahang, Malaysia with our Perodua car.
It was Steve's first time driving on the wrong side of the road! But we arrived safely at our final destination in Temerloh, Pahang.
On the way, we also made a stop at Kampung New Zealand. Yes, you heard that right! There is a New Zealand in Malaysia!
We hope you enjoy this Malaysia travel vlog and Malaysia travel guide. Stay tuned for more Pahang travel vlog and Pahang travel guide for your cuti cuti Malaysia. Watch more of our videos for things to do in Malaysia and things to do in Pahang.

JetLagWarriors is a Canadian couple - Steve and Ivana. After travelling here and there for a few years, mostly during Canadian winter, we fully caught the travel bug and decided to travel INDEFINITELY! Subscribe to keep up with our journey. We will be budget travelling- hostels and air BnB's and street food and the whole bit. Thanks!

The wiper turned on was hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
Here's a pro tip: We Malaysians are generally very friendly people, but not so much when we're behind the wheel lol! It's like we switch to siege mentality once our hands are on the steering wheel and I don't know why. Other than that, have a safe and fun trip!

I can relate to that after driving many times in Kuching and around Sararwak. Great driving out of the cities and towns but can be quite scary in them.

That's my perception while driving in Malaysia for 13years. When we moved to Qatar 4years ago, this come into my mind, drivers in Malaysia are thousands better than here! I did open the driver door wrongly for months, nervous to enter and getting out of roundabout (it's confusing since you drive the otherway in Malaysia) and learnt being patient with unusual behavior of drivers on the road (sometimes they just stop their car in the middle of the road just to talk to their phone or stop at the roundabout waiting for their friend's cars etc😂). Horn is a must just after the traffic light change to green colour (to keep other drivers alert🤣)Praise to God it's my second year driving here😅
This is going to be a FUN week! 💪😄

Every sunday, Temerloh have a huge market called 'pekan sari' at Esplanade Temerloh. You guys can check it out! Fast tips: Asking the price first before u eat in Temerloh area because the Ikan Patin have grades. Have fun gaisss.
As you can see, a lot of people giving you advice to drive safely but that is not because we think you drive badly, instead it is because we know how unsafe some Malaysians drive and a foreigner like you may not be used to this kind of driving. We want you all to have a great experience road tripping. The highways will get you to your destination faster but the rural roads will offer many more surprises an better sights and experience, in my opinion. Anyway just be alert at all times and I hope you enjoy your road trip.

Hi there. Wow! You guys keep getting better, more adventurous and hilarious from time to time. My feeling right now is kind of watching road trip movies... You know, like watching Little Miss Sunshine + On the Road + Dumb and Dumber (ok, this one sounds a bit crazy). This will make us totally glued to our phones, wondering and guessing what shall happen next. As usual, take care, have a safe journey and keep us posted!
Have a safe and fun trip guys. Im sure u will love the scenery across malaysia.
Yohoo, YOLO for Steve to drive. Sceptical with his skill. Enjoy.

This is going to be an awesome Road Trip 😁😁😁
Have a great road trip!!! Keep safe and healthy.
Steve are so brave to drive a car in Malaysia..Good job steve..Have a safe journey alls of you ..
Wow a road trip with a bunch of friends... Temerloh is famous for ikan patin... If you go to the river (the main road goes along the river) you'll see people rearing patin fish in cages in the Pahang River...
Steve the driving warrior!
Road trip is always the best way to travel...have fun guys!
You all are so talented. So much fun..
Omg this is so funny 😂 you should've drive Proton so that the signal knob will be on the left side.
OMG this is such a funny video.The comedian in Steve really shines through haha Was waiting for the switch between the windshield wiper and blinker and I wasn’t disappointed lol Watch out for motor bikes and sometimes on kampung roads there will be stray cows or buffalos. Be safe guys.
Nice video bro. Have a nice day!!

I cant wait for your next video at temerloh.. temerloh is my hometown ... i miss temerloh so much, last visit to temerloh was about 2 - 3 months ago
Saya pula yang nervous 😂.. Good job steve!

I think it’s good if you know driving rules in malaysia i mean like if you were caught using mobile phone while driving, you will have to make a court appearance. There is also AES(Automated Enforcement System), speedtrap like usual, charged parking area, etc. So that you wont get trouble. Have a safe drive! And toll payment method also. I guess the renter already explain it to u. Some cars in have signal handle on the right, and some on the left. Depend on which brand.

This is more entertaining than I expected 😂 Pro tip: you can actually put your phone with the GPS on the gear knob at the console since it is an automatic car and you don't really need to change the gear 😂 It will be easier for Steve to glance at the map while driving.

You guys should drove proton exora..it's seem like a European car in term of signal n wiper tools position.. Huge spaces and good in ride n handling..hehe
Its "perodua" (2nd national car maker) all the system is based on Japanese style. Because their target market only for malaysian n southeast asia If u want to drive like a conti car, signal stick on the right hand side. U can rent "proton" (1st national car maker) which sold in Europe, Oceania, Asian & African as well
Funny man.. Have fun. Enjoy the holiday
