Why this taxi driver can't extend the same courtesy to us as what we give them

[Wanderer]

Me very gentle one de hor........

 

Sekali kena road rage......... the defendant become the accused....

Morning

 

How your business .....

 

Came back last night after being struck for 1 1/2 hrs at Tuas Checkpoint.

 

Things have change so munch after 8 years since my last visit to Malacca......

 

Everywhere jammed pack, lack of parking space due to too many shopping centres springing up everywhere. Stayed at Hotel Equatorial and the front part of the hotel had changed so much.

 

The field beside the hotel where we use to take a bull-lock cart ride had turned into a super big shopping centre with such a poor planning that the space inside is so wide but little shops........

[Route88]

by all means get down ask that fxcker 'Si Mi Dai Chi'

 

 

 

Hur...... , U so good one meh.....

 

me, go down ans asked 'horn si mi l*n ch**w' ........

 

 

 

Haha...same same

You wanna play with me,come play

[Tunge]

that is why i don't extend any forms of courtesy to them

 

if they stop longer than is needed to alight (i can see if they are dawdling or whether passenger is elderly etc), horn for them

 

actually sometimes it's the passenger who sabo the taxi driver, like at the very last min tell uncle to stop and stop already then slowly go n dig for wallet to pay... I've also seen dumb passenger who like to wait at junctions, zebra crossings, traffic lights to flag for cab when taxi stop, cos obstruction...

 

 

of course i'm also not condoning the actions of the drivers, but we just bringing out another side of the story

[Comfy]

gentle? how gentle?

[Comfy]

 

malacca gd fun or not? maybe can go with someone..

[Loki]

Just bochup him la.

 

No point getting upset because of this kind of incidents.

 

Anyway if taxi cut my lane to stop to alight or pick up passengers, I will blast my horn at them all the way.

 

If taxi suddenly brake in front of me to alight or pick up passengers, I will also blast my horn at them.

 

However, if the taxi on hazard lights in advance and slow down gradually to alight or pick up passengers I will be graceful and wait for them.

 

So when I turn on hazard lights in advance and slow down gradually to alight or pick up passengers I expect them to be graceful and wait for me.

 

But should they horn at me for no reason, I will bochup them and take my own sweet time.

 

They can jolly well filter lane and overtake me if they want.

 

Cheers.

 

My case not taxi but some stupid aunty. This happened last year. I was picking up wife and kids from a car porch and my wife and I on opposite sides of the car were buckling up our kids in their car seats. Stupid aunty behind got impatient and started to horn furiously. My wife shouted at her to stop horning and she shouted back at my wife.

 

I just told my wife to get into the car, I also got in and turned on the TV for kids, then on hazard light and went behind to "talk" to the aunty. I was very polite and did not shout or scold her.

 

I simply took a very, very long time and told her: aunty, there is no need to horn me. it is not as if I am pusposely taking my time. My wife and I both had to buckle up our kids for safety reasons ... and so on and so on.... So, see , if you did not horn at me, I would have driven off by now but because you had to horn at me, now I have to come and explain to you why I was taking some time and then you end up being delayed some more...." I talked nicely to her for about 5-6 mins until she cannot tahan. Then when I felt like it, then I got into my car and drove off.

[Silhoutte]

Bet that aunty sure 'Tong you Beh Tiao'

[Boyboy]

taxi driver can choose not to stop, or to educate passenger. if he doesn't, then all he cares about is his own earnings, still deserve to be horned

 

sometimes i feel that horning will serve to wake up the passengers as well. they MIGHT get the message if their selfish act causes a whole line of cars to jam behind the taxi and a number of them horn at him

[Slowmo]

siao.

 

so easy hot, dont drive lar. sg enough road rage liao.

[Loki]

My motto: don't get mad. Just get even.

 

Sometimes, it's better to play it cool and don't get worked up. More often than not, the other party get more upset when you play it cool.
