The Federal Highway, I think, was the first ever highway in Malaysia (that I could ever remember). It connects between Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur. And I have been using it ever since I discovered that I could drive (legally) and there is a World out there outside the gates. Anyway, the Federal Highway is the most busiest road and it has its own characteristics:
1: When it rains, even a few drops, traffic will slow down
2: When there is an accident or people stopping their cars, curious people will cause a traffic jam
3: If you are stuck in a jam, the jam will move, albeit slowly
4: There is a certain stretch where accidents happen quite frequently.
So, the authorities have tried by using metal fencing. This did help in reducing roadkills but not on cars. And lately, for the past few months, they have now upgraded the metal fending to concrete blocks. At first, I thought it was just for temporary measure, until they start to cement the blocks together......

Why do they want to do this? Because this stretch is prone to accidents
The first upgrade using metal fencing did not help. So......
