Speed limits and keeping safe distance must be respected and observed, no?
Why hv speed limits then?
Wanna push boundaries, fine, but know when to stop!
A lot of hotshots only know their wheels can speed without being aware of the dangers speeding can cause. Can they control their cars in all eventualities and not harm innocent road users?
Everbody think they are better than the speed limits, right?
Then how come there are pileups everyday?
bro you r going through what i had been through...
so where is macha?

err..lost you there. What's "macha"?
Get me a TP-sponsored-speed-detection-law-trangression-recorder video cam and I'll gadly volunteer to have it installed in my cab, anytime, anytime!
I can't wait to kick arses - those hotshot asses, aces??
Wondered what happened to the taxi "sentinel" project last time.
Today just saw a CU (cockup), HG (hand gun) driver bring down the centre divider railing along jln bt merah, near PSB at 4.xx pm.

he is a fellow bro with the same thinking as us.
To all the aces, I say this.
I also like to do 150 kmph, but only in north-south highway up north and when traffic is very light. Of course hv to standby 50 rm for fines.
So if I screw up, I only kill myself.
Be a man lah! Drive responsibly!

Drive responsibily!
Can you guarantee you won't kill someone by the road side, some family on the opposite side?

I meant 150 on the highway leh...
nowadays mellow a lot liao..up north seldom exceed 120.
Thankfully didn't kill anyone or buffalo. I ever jammed brake for a 2 m monitor lizard to cross just before malacca.
That fella's eye expression really pitiful..damn kanchiong looking at you and can see it was trying it's best to get out of the way.

maybe there have not prohibite, Road Bully yet. ( will tio Par One Leh )
not really i can say 90% of our drivers who go NSHW hav no manners..........

Originally posted by Techo:I think you give them too much credit lah...
Hv driven to all corners (except langkawi) up north many times in the last 20 yrs.
It's not etiquette but a sense of reality. You could be beaten up, slashed with a parang and left for dead!
To their credit, there are 2 sides of the coin:
My car skidded and overturned in kedah many years back. Car roof was a total wreck.
At the accident site, villagers were ransacking my car for useful and valuable stuff.
But...the help rendered by others and the hospital to my wife who was hurt was really heartwarming.
sometimes there r bad ppl around also.............. my last few incidents up north
hav been very heart warming........
Originally posted by bowah:Singapore car horns and lights very expensive, if no use, a total waste of what they paid for.
In part of this world, where horning and high beam are use extensive, it become part of their courtesy campaign, country like India, horning is like saying Hi, excuse me, high beam meaning, Hi, how is your day. At least they know that the only communication available between vehicles is the horn and beam.
I think govt should put it in that way to promote horning better. But instead, many of us become horny.
if horny go GL pay $50 settled liao..................

Originally posted by ahtanlor:agree with you.
those that said about road hogging can explain about the speed limit part.
Uncle, please keep left unless overtaking.
Dont road hog uncle...keep left please and slowly talk cock sing song with pax...hehehehe
people here follow very closely ie tailgate,then suddenly front car stop,behind car jam break and start cursing and horning!is this the correct attitude?
What for get upset??
They like to tailgate, in the end who kena?? Siow siow right?
Like today again:
Saw one HG small lorry rammed into crown on bayfront bridge. Crown arse almost all gone! 2 tp mobilised to direct traffic there.
Also a blue sonata kissed a private car along cross st just before new bridge rd. Saw kena little bit only, but traffic jam. Car owner macham holding photo-shoot there. TD stood there LL only.
Tailgate lah...tailgate more!

no wonder so many accident, cos people think speeding is safer than driving within speed limit or hogging to them.

Uncle, you are not traffic police, why worry people speeding? Please keep left unless overtaking.

Uncle, you drive same speed as the lorry next to you how I undertake you? Please keep left unless overtaking.
Originally posted by ahtanlor:same question to u.

Is it just so hard to keep left if someone behinds you want to go faster?
This is very kiam pah.
What they call.....your grandfather's road!
In case you do not realise, obstructing another on the road wilfully is also considered a traffic offense....since you decided to use the TP excuse.
So the speeding one gets the ticket, so can the one holding up the queue behind.
You can't make a right by doing a wrong another wrong!
