The rules are different here. It's more unsafe on a motorcycle in Singapore. My reaction in parentheses.
1) Motorcyclists will ride next to you in the same lane. (wtf? do I know you?)
2) Motorcyclists will pass you in the same lane. (WTF dude! you could have just killed me!)
3) If they can, cars will also pass you in the same lane. (aww, wtf, jesus.)
4) Motorcyclists often drag their feet on the ground. (damn, you look dumb and that can't be good for your shoes)
5) It is normal for motorcyclists to wear flip-flops. (damn, trashy.)
6) Motorcyclists will also pass you, even if you are not in a lane, but driving in-between cars. (WTF. WTF. WTF. )
7) Motorcyclists are overtly aggressive and unsafe. The norm is to weave in between cars at speeds that would result in a serious crash if a miscalculation occurs. If one chooses not to participate in this behavior, one risks getting passed by other motorcyclists with less than a foot of clearance on either side, no matter where in the lane (or not) you are.
