I was pleasantly surprised by the roads in Malaysia. We were doing the equivalent of 80MPH on the main N-S road between Kuala Lumpur and Penang and dudes would blow past us in a Toyota Hi-Ace minivan doing 100MPH. Some of the best roads I've ever driven on, even better than the roads in Texas. Heading up into the mountains to see the tea plantations, even the secondary roads were at least two lanes and well marked, but well maintained, even if it was impossible to pass slow-moving trucks.
- heywhatupboys 4y ago> even better than the roads in Texas fun fact: the US has terrible roads (in a Western sense) too
- hnav 4y agothe US is more comparable to a continent or part of the world than a country in terms of variety of roads you get

- hadlock 4y agoThe roads in the northeast are awful. It hardly ever freezes in Texas and almost never is the frost line more than an inch deep so many roads go decades between needing repair or rebuild. Bad roads exist but I specified Texas for a reason
