Turboguy 5th Gear January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 Well just had a leisure chat with a taxi driver while washing cars together. Outside taxi, they are fine, but once inside taxi, hell boy. Hell uncle [sly] i mean, lol. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurtselva 2nd Gear January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 My encounter with taxi drivers on the expressway is those with green light (no passengers) tend to hog lanes. Those with red light, tend to drive fast and reckless.. and most dun signal or even worse, forget to switch off their signal and change to the lanes contrary to the signal.. But nowadays lorry drivers also getting worse.. in the past 2 days got 2 encounters with lorry..one was the very long type. When I entering expressway to join, saw the lorry in the left most lane quite a distant from the merger and speed almost same as mine. So sped up to join the expressway in front of him..KNS the moment he saw my car on the entering lane, he sped up, preventing me joining in front of him..Chee ! I know it is the right of vehicles in the expressway but if I saw a car in the entering lane, I would lift my foot off the accelerator to at least slow down abit so that the car can safely join (unless the car's speed to very slow). Purposely speeding up to prevent other cars from joining the expressway is just too much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapter1_andy 1st Gear January 22, 2013 Share January 22, 2013 i got similiar experience , i shouted at him " look at this damage, you are going to pay for it for sure" Confirm they have to pay...can't let them get away with it... Yeah I agree on some other posts on lorry drivers as well... As much as possible, I try and stay far far away from them...but they have a tendency of hogging the middle lanes...

Hqmcsmm Neutral Newbie January 27, 2013 Share January 27, 2013 see many saying they hogging lanes. which lane they hogging ? on which road or expressway? it all boils down to individual driving attitude and skill. just that this is a car forum all against taxis.. vice versa. just like not all prcs in Sg are whores and not Singapore girls are angel.

MyMelody451 Neutral Newbie February 1, 2013 Share February 1, 2013 My experience, I'd say they usually hog on the right lane, be it peak and non-peak hours. Some even in middle lane can drive 60km/hr with 5 car lengths empty ahead, and when drive past, I see a fairly old guy...though I pity the old man coz he may need to make a living, he is indeed causing a road hazard to many other road users by hogging the road. Of course not all taxi drivers does that, some car drivers also do the same and simply living in their own world despite getting horn at or flashed. Its frustrating when these hoggers take the express lane with 5-10 car lenghts empty ahead of them! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
