Took DASH on Saturday to go to KD from Denai Alam. Was smooth traffic but the entry point was very hidden. Took only 15 minutes tho, so it definitely cuts short the journey.

From KD back to DA is a mess. The entry point is hidden behind the road near Thomson hospital and exiting to DA... Where exactly are you supposed to exit?

Feels like all the on and off ramps are badly designed.

Tested from Penchala to Denai Alam and back.

Both interchange are quite a mess

Here's my take :
From Kepong/DesaParkCity (after LDP toll), keep all the way left after you left the toll. Else you risk missing out the ramp or cut through 3 lanes. The roadsign should put EARLIER before the ramp and not ON the ramp itself

From TTDI/1Utama/SS2/PJ towards Kepong. Have to cut into the road which leads to Damansara Perdana/Penchala. The issue is this ramp is right SMACK in the CENTER of busy road. Basically the car coming out from IKEA/Curve/KD that want to drive towards Penchala and from LDP driving into Damansara Perdana. Basically the ramp is on the middle of this chaos hoo-hah road.

From Denai Alam - Entered the wrong ramp. I drove in too early. The ramp is at later part so no experiences on this.

But tried from Penchala to Subang. 7-10 minutes depending on how fast you drive. Cut damn a lot of traffic than going through the Jalan Sg.Buloh Jam Fest which might take over 30 minutes

This morning try DASH from setia Alam to KD again at 7.00am. Jam at Alam Budiman traffic light but still much better compare to the usual NKVE route. Yes, the exit can be confusing. Another jam area is the tol, no thanks to our "smart" RFID and "Smarttag".

Tried to use RFID that few morning weekend when there's no people.
Their reader seems to be not aligned properly.

That's why their staff always standby there

You mean like Japan? That's the future bro. It is already happening. from Putra Heights to KLCC take over an hour but the good thing is you can sleep all the way there.

The problem is all we have are standard train schedule. Every station even if no people also stop.

They should follow like Japan to have multiple train type (e.g. express, limited express) and stop at those important destination.

The curve where the accident happens are very curvy.

My first time over there also had a hard time turning because I was driving around 60km/h and it was still hard to steer.

There's one more thing I notice but not sure if you guy happen to stumble on it or not. The road leveling are very un-even, especially on the DP part.

This kind of issue only invites more accident

DASH final discharge point at Puncak Perdana really terrible considering puncak perdana choke point..should extend to Setia Alam so that Setia Alam people no need access PMD first..that will ease up the traffic from Puncak Alam

Yes, the chokepoint at Puncak Perdana is real. I rather drive via Jalan Kuala Selangor
