Break down (Break daun)

We have had our quarterly safety talk at the office today and this time it featured Road Safety. The safety team invited the dudes from Megamas co. who are supposedly specialists on this topic. I had the opportunity to ask about the practice practiced by us Bruneians to stick leaves on the back of their car as a sign of car breakdown.

Their answer was there is no safety guidelines in Brunei indicating so but its just a Bruneian methophorical way to say my car rosak i.e. breakdown ( Break daun) and hence the sticking leaves on the back of their car...geddit? Hehe.

Cheers!
