First time driving out of SG, so exciting!   

Although those hotels that I chose to stay primarily becos of safety consideration, that do not mean its 100% safe.  Do practise the usual precautions, like not leaving anything of value within sight in the car.  

And be aware of snatch theft in area between Novotel & Hatten hotel.   First time drive to M'sia, try to blend in; dress down, no showy, glittery accessories/handbags. Divide ur money; don't be seen with too much cash when u open wallet.

 Hope my simple advice helps. Enjoy the drive! 

Don't wear slipper.

Confirm ppl know that you are Singaporean especially when wife dress nice nice.

Since first time driving in never mention the most important thing on NSHW, keep left unless overtake.
