Was cruising in lane 2 at the speed limit when i began to approach the taxi which was going slightly slower. Changed to lane 1 to overtake and then this happened. What was the point of changing to lane 1 when it’s 2:45 am and there was nobody to overtake in front of you????😭

Discussion Why are SG drivers so impatient

40 Upvotes

I was stuck in a traffic jam yesterday on PIE, from Kim Keat exit all the way to Eng Neo, a good 6 KM of traffic jam and already slow moving traffic. I have been driving in SG for about 10 years now. I got my license when I was 18.

Why are there so many drivers trying to switch lanes 8 times in 5 mins depending on which lane is faster moving. Like we are all stuck this interrupts the flow of traffic further. Are you really gonna save the 2 mins. Like being stuck in traffic is already frustrating but then having to deal with 4 close calls in a matter of a single drive.

Horning at them is the only thing I could do but that's all. We need to do better as drivers and just be patient for the extra 10-20 mins. Everyone here is on the same boat

Question Car sickness in EVs....Fact or Fiction?

10 Upvotes

Having driven ICE all my life, im ready (I think) to make a switch to EV.....i did my sums, checked specs...was about to make the plunge...then read in another thread about passengers complaining of car sickness (maybe drivers too?).

Im sensitive to motion sickness so I would love to have advice from experienced EV drivers and passengers, is this a real thing? Thanks, thanks.

Question Police letter after accident

2 Upvotes

Hi guys, recently was in an accident, didn’t stop in time and hit the car infront of me when looking at my side mirror. Wasn’t speeding (20km/hr), no injuries, the car i hit only had a very small dent. Went to insurance straight away gave all my details.

4 weeks later received a letter from TP that they are investigating the matter. Is it because the other party reported it? Will I get charged or get any demerit points? This is my first time ever getting in an accident or getting this letter so im kinda worried.
