For the first time in my countless trips to Malacca that it took me >3 hours from JB to Malacca. Imagine the traffic on most part of NSHW is almost the same as morning traffic on AYE / ECP... Faint

Not to mention that the frustration and stress worrying about cars cutting lanes at custom. Especially at the Malaysia side. They could have done a better job to prevent such occurrences. The basic lane marking is rubbish. There is literally no lane marking to begin with. Edited by Extremme

Go 3-4am reach melaka just nice for breakfast

Take it slow and yes just in time. Best of all, you beat the morning traffic if you reach that early

Download "Beat the Jam".

That is forecast. Most of the time it will state via 2nd link between 5-6am, its "green". First time I tried, bingo its accurate but 2nd time I tried at the same timing, the actual situation was Amber to Red. It's not even those long weekend situation. But yeah, that's by far the best in the market now. Edited by Extremme

Weekdays before 7 usually take less than 30 mins to cross both ciq.

 

Weekends like Saturdays, 7 am will need an hour and half at least

 

( past experiences )
