For the first time, it was really a taxi queue instead of human queue! But these few times I see more people than taxis queuing again, even at peak hours. (At least for shopping centres and HDB areas). ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuan 6th Gear May 7, 2012 Share May 7, 2012 (edited) On 5/6/2012 at 6:25 PM, Hotshot85 said: Agree that most of them like to do all sorts of stunts on the road. However, it really isn't just taxis ... I've seen weirdos from all different vehicles. It might be due to the fact that taxis are so common everywhere, hence it usually seems to be just "them". However, where else can you find a convoy everyday except in Sg, especially at night? Hehe. Try driving along rochor canal road to kampong java direction, or vice versa. Due to construction works there, there's a stretch with multiple S-turns. I've yet to see a taxi being able to stick in their own lane while travessing that stretch till date. Other drivers are also guilty, and I usually just die die stick to my lane, let them come super close to me and horn the living daylights out of them. Usually a middle finger will show up from me too, either to provoke them, or let my displeasure with such noob driving be made known. I noted that stretch of road. I usually slowed down and keep to my lane. At all cost, I will avoid any form of closeness to my car cos of all these taxis and cars which did not keep to lane discipline. No doubt it is hard, it can be done. Edited May 7, 2012 by Yuan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very correct! Never ever in your life ever bang into taxi backside! 100000% they pain here, pain there or heart attack and freign death even so they can go to hospital...... Eventhough you see they 100% okay except for a little shock(or is it excitement that you bang their backside). Just so that they can claim as much as possible from YOU!
