Many Sleep In Cars After Leaving For Work Early To Avoid Traffic

13-Feb-2023

Since the pandemic, the majority of us have been accustomed to working from home, so now that we are all back in the office, it is troublesome to travel due to the massive traffic congestion.


As a result, many people now leave their homes for work as early as 5am to escape traffic.

It is reasonable to say that many people are caught in traffic for at least an hour and a half, especially those who live further away from their place of employment.


Due to this, leaving early seems like a better option, and after they arrive at the office, they typically catch up on sleep in their cars before work begins.



This is very dangerous, and unethical and it should not even be normalised by society.


Not only that, but it's also quite dangerous to sleep in a car with the engine running since the amount of oxygen that can circulate there is restricted and would eventually result in death if the window wasn't cracked.


Many people believe that the government should offer incentives to encourage employers to allow employees who primarily use laptops to work from home on a regular basis.



Even when dozing off in the car before work, a netizen was mugged and had his bag, bank cards, and cash was taken.


Even worse, the thief figured out the pin code for his ATM card, enabling the crook to withdraw money from the victim's account.

On top of that, Malaysia is ranked #2 as one of the most congested cities in Asia.
