I'm curious as I saw a Mustang at Sunway with Malaysia's road registration number. The driver was seated on the left side.

Wouldn't it be dangerous especially driving on fast lane when he might misjudge the distance between the opposite lane and his lane?

Isn't it illegal?

boleh lar..no problem punya
malaysia what
we live in boleh land

can drive..and if i not mistaken..u got to put the sign like those P sign to let ppl know tat your car is a left side driver car..

its not illegal.. but you gotta put a sticker i think

can
what he need to worried is how to pass toll
only can use smart tag

i saw 1 be4 at setapak,but dunno wat kind of junk car that is,plate number start wit j

Lol now that I think of it, quite true. What about parking in shopping complexes. Need to go with another passenger

Yes, no problem if your car driver is on the Left side as long as put sticker say Left hand driver.

yes u can drive left-hand-drive cars... i'm not sure u need to get documents from jpj or not... better go jpj and enquire...

why not ???

can but make sure u can handle it well cos of "wrong side perspective"

unlike a noob driver in LHD accord putrajaya 7492 @ 7am weekday damansara toll who banged into me and dinged my door. i avoided her as best as i could cos her car was really makan lane also cannot escape. damn noob. jam like hell also cannot position her stupid car properly.

yes. u can.

haha. maybe when almost reach toll, use reverse la.

LOL, LOL.

I have seen before one BMW and Mercz (both driven by ladies) left side driver.....

At the back of their car got sticker with sign "Left Hand Drive"

Actually, how do they pay toll? LOL

can wat.. use smart tag..
or touch n go.. stick d tng on a fly swatter to extend the reach

can but must go jpj get letter..state why u have that car ..n must put sticker sign..

Driver : Eh man , today i feel like buying stuff for my gf... Can teman me ar ?

Friend : Eh bro , u're gonna buy things for your gf la. Wan me to teman for wat ?

Driver : No lah , actually just to help me pay toll. Later other drivers look at me, i very shy lar.

Friend : Swt

They will have problem to go any drive-thru, get a parking ticket, pay tolls, and what else

so much hassle for it lol


common ppl will be entering da left side LOL if da driver dun enter first lol

its nt illegal r..but if ur used to it..ermm...shud be okies kua

Should be ok i think, my ex-uni drive used to drive a left-side driver car ~~
It feels funny, coz people thought I am driving the car though I'm actually the passenger @@

But our Malaysian road is catered for right-side drivers ~~~ Got to be extra careful you want to drive left-side driver car

my neighbour used to had a left hand drive 300zx brought back from the states. in the end of the day, the car was lying there collecting dust more than being driven out.

i have a friend too, whos bringing in a dodge charger to melaka, so i guess its gonna be a sunday drive car

the dangerous one is how u wanna overtake the car infront of you? use left lane if in highway ? dangerous wo. if normal road, wanna depend you right passanger? can be trusted or not? haha

Shouldn't be illegal. There are Mercedes Diesel Hearses owned by mostly funeral companies (Station wagons) which are all left hand drive.

I guess problems one'd face is;

1. Overtaking
2. Paying tolls

1. overtaking should be no an big issue if familiar with the car and always drive that car...
i can overtake car by using left lane easily even though i right handed...
2. most of the tolls in malaysia equipped with SmartTag lane...

the biggest issues are collecting and slotting parking ticket at shopping car park if they driving alone...
some of the spare part may issue for them as well, the part design may "up side down" compare to right handed...

Saw a bmw 3 series at my friend's condo left hand drive . just gotto paste sticker behind to warn peoples

that's the best part of getting a left hand driver car man..if the passenger is a pretty female with a nice body..i won't mind passing all the shopping complexes parking man..

no prob actually.. left hand drive cars can be registered legally in our country no prob at all, but u have 2 put some kinda sticker saying "Left-Hand Drive Vehicle" if im not mistaken.. ive seen a couple of mercs at my hometown that r left hand drive, which is kinda weird 4 me coz right hand drive mercs isnt wat we call hard 2 find here..

some countries charge more expensive roadtax on cars that have different driving side than their normal ones, not sure bout malaysia though..

besides the unusual driving position, just make sure the left hand drive car has a "left hand drive" sign on the rear screen.

also got to worry about the parts..some of the spare parts is not the same..got to import it..but since TS said is a mustang..comfirm everything need to import..and ppl who buy the car must be kind of rich even the ride is around 200k+??that car was at tat dealer for a time already..i think got 5 to 6 month about already..

lol, yup you're right!

wahahaha can always lean over n pay mah.

or ask the passenger pay for u only le.

Can... just today I've saw a E46 BMW 3 series LHD model at Keramat.

Just get the vehicle to be inspected at puspakom can liao. And I also notice that most LHD cars got carry "LEFT HAND DRIVE" sticker behind the bonnet. Dunno the sticker is mandatory a not la...

u have no problem overtake car by using left lane because it was same direction with u and u can see the car from ur side mirror.
but if a left-side-driver car want to overtake, the driver may unable to see the car come from the opposite direction.

paying toll is not much of an issue really.. 4 example, UK has the same driving side as us, n they r surrounded by other european countries that drive on the left side.. u can see that wat they do is juz lean over the other side 2 pay tolls, its not difficult come 2 think of it.. toll booths r operated by people, they can reach out their hands which makes it a bit easier for us.. the issue here i think comes when we're dealing wit parking machines, press button 2 get ticket or slot ticket or money 2 get out..

You serious? That's quite a distance to lean

Right hand drive also can do what?

BTW, saw a few of this left hand drive car. One of it is honda accord. When I first saw it, couldn't see the driver head (from behind), only saw the "passenger" head . ""Oooh, this fella must be a short person, thats why cannot see his/her head ""My thougth. . during overtaking, Ehhh??? no driver??!! Lol, steering at the left side la

really.. ive seen in couple of times b4 in uk shows..

i just saw an old volvo wif left side drive few days ago...

johor cauesway custom have lotsa left hand sided counters as well. no problems in passing passports and paying tolls, just have to stretch lefthand.

last time my lecturer own one left sided-drive Benz, forget what model d...that time i was shocked because she sat at the left side...haha...


i wonder how she going to overtake the car..i think quite difficult to do it...:hehe

right hand drive how to do that kind of leaning thingy wor..right hand drive u get the parking ticket direct from the machine jor..if left hand drive..u can act act abit..lean on the girl..say "aiyakk..cannot reach the ticket..let me try again and again and again"

wao, look cool. left side driving skill, won't get summon meh ?

ticket machine at parking is ok..
if auto can put to P, safe incase ur foot press on gearstick
with manual got risk of nudging into gear

unless u are talking on the phone..or didn't buckle up..yes..u will kena summons..

can, but overtaking big vehicles is almost impossible.. must put camera at da right side bumper there

Nope

mostly all I saw with VVIP plate num.

Saw A LDH driver, was at a toll, and he was using a portable sort of a stick and attach the TOuchNGo card to it..so no problem, he can reach the other easily

actually why does it hard to over take vehicles on the left or on the right??is just like normal car only wor..is like u are having a right hand drive..does it hard to over take to the left lane?? actually does anyone drive before a left hand drive car before before they say it's hard to over take other vehicles??

cuz my father used to drive a LHD 300CE many many years ago. 1996 i think.. its quite difficult to overtake front vehicle in normal road where there is oncoming traffic at da opposite lane. need to check whether got oncoming vehicles or not.. need to bring the car further out the lane to check instead of juz peeping, or extend our head to see. for highway of course its normal with the aid of side-mirrors..

my russian classmate drives a white pajero with united nations number plate..

There is no such thing as tak boleh

it is hard to over take even we stick those round blind spot mirror at our side mirror??

i think the hassle s not worth it la lol

In the end, you'll get "palm print" on your face

i think he means those kampung road lo with 1 lane only...
if wanna to overtake have to use opposite road at the right side since the drive sitting left side and look on right side car that come from opposite way... sure the sight will 100% blocked if big vehicle was in front...

let me get a left hand drive 1st..then i try that and let u guys know i will got a plam print on my face or not..

Added on October 13, 2008, 10:22 amoh..i see..now i get the picture of wat he is saying..a bit slow lar my brain..cannot process to fast..

actually if u guys happend to be in this problem..u can back off from the lorry away until u can see the oppsite road..and once the road is clear from far aheah..u can step on all the oil and over take the big fat lorry..terms and condition apply..

this is wat i meant! jalan persekutuan.. one lane up and one lane down.. its totally blocked.. my dad will ask my mum, got car or not.....

u got it now ppl at da back will angry.. my dad used to take tis risk to follow another car overtaking big vehicles.. but scary le..

umm..that's the only way to over take car if u have a left hand drive..scary is for sure lar..every car over take another car also scary wan..but maybe a left hand driver car scary can +50% more..

saw a LHD VW Golf GTi number plate WAY 7x4x
and a LHD VW Scirocco ...
there's no sticker mentionning it's a LHD car or watsoever.

no lah... if u wanted to see more of these left hand drive cars.. come to my office... there's a lot of people working outside and bring these left hand drive car with them back to malaysia

where are u from??japan??wat car they have at ur place??got old skool mustang??

ministry of foreign affairs

i've seen mustang shelby gt500
left side driver also..
dam kewl

It's legal. Not sure whether it's a must to have the sticker to alert others. I saw a couple before, with and without stickers.

1 things for sure is trouble getting pass toll, collecting parking ticket, etc.

i think japan using RHD.. btw, many lectures near my area using LHD cars too.. but mostly old cars..

is there any one got a contact for left hand drive cars?
I'm looking for it.. Is for shooting~~
Looking for left hand drive cars, convertible and 2 doors
