NSTleader Our capital city is ranked 46 with a congestion level of 37 per cent, up one per cent from 2018.

In that time, eight sweaters could have been knitted or 8,170 cookies baked. Or better still, 170 trees could have been planted.At what cost to the Malaysian economy is hard to tell, but there is a proxy measurement. Yesterday, thecarried a Reuters report quoting an INRIX Inc study that said drivers in the United States lost 99 hours or US$88 billion last year due to traffic jams.

But congestion can vary with time and day. Evening jam chokes traffic with 84 per cent congestion, while morning rush hour records 63 per cent congestion. Kuala Lumpur isn’t there yet, but will be soon after being Thailand’s Bangkok first. We have tried tunnels and bridges but those haven’t worked. To be blunt, save for the city trains, our public transport is a crying shame. Buses are unreliable. They rarely come on time. Drivers? Some are so riled up with rage it is a wonder how the bus companies allow them to be at the wheels. Taxis? Their shame index is a recurring global story.
