Loke Yew Highway

The new Loke Yew highway is a blessing in disguise. From where i am, everywhere is accessible through this new route.

Whenever i take the flyover and start exhilarating,  I recall SRK in the movie Pardes, speeding over the California highway. Open hooded car, wind blowing.
That's exactly what i do too. Often this highway ia not crowded.

Only recently i discovered something about this.  Every entry charges a toll of two ringgit. Once i topped up the smart tag for ten ringgit.

Late evening i realized that the top up had disappeared. That meant i had made 5 trips down the same highway just on this particular day!

That i considered to be waste of lots of money. So now i would juggle and evaluate on how a rush my trip is. If i have time i take the longer route. If I'm in a hurry I'd take the highway.

Its either a choice of spending twenty minutes or two ringgit on a trip.

Every ringgit saved is good. Every minute saved is good too.

Depending on the situation.
