All of us have that special connection with our cars. We give them manja names, we pamper them, heck we even spend up to thousands of ringgits just to make them feel special. We’re practically in a relationship with our cars! Don’t you agree?
However, have you ever wondered what your car would say to you if it could talk? Well, we wondered the same too and have compiled a few scenarios Malaysian drivers are all too familiar with and they even hypothesized the things their cars would say to them. Check them out below!
1. “Don’t know how to use signal ah?”

Here we see the mysterious being that is the “turn signal indicator” whose existence has evaded Malaysian drivers for centuries.
2. “Can move back a bit? Why you want me to smell this car’s rear-end?”

We get it, you’ve got places to be. However, tailgating the car in front of you really closely is very dangerous! Also, if you could stop high-beaming us with your blinding white lights, that’ll be great. 🙂
3. “Dey, if you want to go slow let me stay in the left lane lah!”
Stop hogging the fast lane, slowpoke! Yes, it’s best to be safe than sorry but if you want to drive slow, stay on the left, please. 🙂
4. “Oi, don’t be an inconsiderate bugger!”

We’ve all seen bad parking jobs as well as double parks around us. It’s not only inconsiderate to other drivers, but it’s also inconsiderate to your car. Don’t you know how sad your car feels when you leave them out there like this? 🙁
5. “You’re embarrassing me!”

That moment when you’re confident you still have some balance on your Touch n Go, but there’s actually only RM0.05 inside. GG liao…
6. “I’m not comfortable doing this… It feels so wrong!”

Misusing the emergency lane is the worst offence you can do as a driver! What if a fellow Malaysian is really in an emergency and you’re blocking their way? Please, think of others.
7. “What are you doing? You think you’re a mechanic ah?”

When your car breaks down and you try to look macho and pop open the bonnet to inspect things. Of course, in reality, you have no idea what you’re doing.
8. “Oi, eyes on the road lah! Stop looking at your phone!”
Browsing through Insta-stories is not worth your life weh! Always keep your eyes on the road and your phone in your pockets when driving. No matter how important a text message is, you can always reply to it later when you’ve arrived at your destination.
Wouldn’t it be cool though if you could ask your car to read your text messages out loud and even reply to them? Or if you could just verbally ask them for directions and they’ll automatically set up the GPS for you?
Well, just check out the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class and its mind-boggling features that would even put Tony Stark to shame!
Equipped with Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) and a massive double 10.4-inch display, you can just say “Hey Mercedes” to your A-Class and it’ll prompt you with what tasks you want it to do!
Just take a look at the voice commands the A-Class can do:
- Switch to vehicle system settings
- Control air conditioning
- Request average consumption
- Control ambient light
- Make a call
- Show call list
- Request music information
- Navigate to address

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg! Here’s a comprehensive tour of the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class:
The great thing about the new A-Class isn’t just the MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) or the many personalisation options – it’s getting to know a car that gets to know you!
