Penang Watch

I was crossing the road today with my baby at about 1300hrs & a car (LICENSE PLATE : PFN 2024) came up at high speed was just centimetres away from me without slowing down and even showed the middle finger at me. This is our 9 month here in Penang. I have experienced errant drivers from this place & I am very very upset about it. Should I go to the police every day?
My daughter was hit by a Myvi near YMCA who later just drove off.... Penang drivers do not have the courtesy to slow down when they see a pedestrian putting their foot down on the road to cross but instead they speed up at you.
Tell me citizens of Penang, what should expats like us do? We do not understand this aggression, this need to rush & speed on the road, this habit of over taking from the left sometimes right in front of your car & not to forget the drivers who do not respect zebra crossing even when I cross the road with my baby on the stroller.
Make us understand why many people in Penang are like this?
