Chicken on the Road

Guess many of you had seen this funny sign at a roundabout near Tuaran. The sign reads, “Don’t Cross the Road like a Chicken,” “Look Right, Look Left, Look Right… Cross.” I have seen died snake, rat, lizard, dog and cat on the road, but didn’t see any death chicken, so the chicken is actually smarter than human on crossing road, consider more human are killed each year? Personally I think they should use cow as the “model”. If you’ve been to Kota Belud, you will agree with me.

    actually i have seen several flattened chicken in my lifetime. and i think they’re no brainier than other animals when it comes to avoiding cars. they would try to outrun my car instead of simply getting out of the way…&*^#%*&@#

    very true, my dad personally had this experience… chicken runs across 1/2 way… then ‘hangs’ there… thinking to continue or go back… ends up getting run over. if it just had continued running across it would be okay. so… when in doubt, move foward.

Just a space where I share my thoughts — sometimes academic, sometimes personal, sometimes just whatever comes to mind. It can go from consumer behaviour to kopi-ping rants in one scroll. Depends on the mood bah. I used to run sumandak.com and dayverampas.com, back when blogs were still the thing. Also did some time as a freelance graphic designer, before switching paths — now I work as a data analyst by day, and a curious writer by whenever-I-have-time. If you’ve somehow landed here, welcome.
