To all P-platers Drivers !!!!!!
-
quite common for pple to switch lane suddenly without signaling... experience many times and agree with bros here that the natural reaction is to sway to the next lane.... quite dangerous also..... I also tell myself not to sway to the next lane but sometime really no choice.....
juz exercise more care when changing lane...... check blindspot.... really! -
relac lar....but quite true...some ppl just passed their driving test think they can act yaya by breaking the rules or doing dangerous stuff....i also tio by those fellas b4...see my 3 ton coming still dash out of slip rd...damn close 2 collision....wtfOriginally posted by SwtHippy:Last nite i almost met wf an accident.
12am, I was driving at this PIE just past kallang(Lane 2@90km/hr) when tis P-plate driver SDS**** silver car almost bumped into my car, he didnt bother to check his blind sport on his right, didnt signal his rite lamp and drove into my lane. As i saw his car almost bumped into mine, i was forced to cut into lane 1 whereby i almost hit the car on the lane1. Luckily the car on the lane 1 drove passed me very quickly. I horned twice at the P plate driver(wearing glassess)...wtf!
To all P-platers...Plse for goodness sake, Please check your blind spot and signal early before switching lane! Dont cause harm to other traffic users becos of your carelessness! -
whahaha sekali i m tht P plate u r referring to
-
i only remembered the cars colour..which ws blue...and it was along TP that long stretch of straight road....horned and flashed lights at him...still remembered his LJ face
-
take note one point too... it's midnight... that driver could be very tired too after a long day..... especially that if he a new driver and havent gotten used to driving long hours....
i'm also a P-plate... if u wanna say so there's also lots of "bad" drivers out there without the P... i juz kana sooo many times in my 2 weeks after getting my fresh new licence... juz because i'm slow on the road in my dad's commercial van... so i can only say, juz accept that there are bad drivers there and 4get abt the incident... at least it makes ur life easier rather than be sooo angry...
and to all the guys out there ah, if u were to see a slow moving P plate on the road ah, relax huh.. . the chap is still getting familiar and getting experience and confidence hor... -

I agree with the general response here that we should be more careful when driving on the roads regardless of whether the vehicles around us are P-platers drivers or not.
This includes doing simple things which we tend to take things for granted at times like signalling early, I must emphasise it again here, signalling EARLY. Some mortorists make last minute decisions and signal their intention at the very last minute.
So, let's all do our part and I'm sure we can minimize unfortunate incidents from happening. -
and one more thing....plz dun bully the L-plates out there.....we were once p-plates b4 and know how frustrating it is when ppl cut into our lanes etc juz becoz we are slow and overtake us while we are turning.....sometimes got ppl sabo those dbl L-plates(test vehicles) this is ESP true in the kaki bukit area...
-
err...double L plate to be exactOriginally posted by AE86tofu:and one more thing....plz dun bully the p-plates out there.....we were once p-plates b4 and know how frustrating it is when ppl cut into our lanes etc juz becoz we are slow and overtake us while we are turning.....sometimes got ppl sabo those dbl p-plates(test vehicles) this is ESP true in the kaki bukit area... -
i understand the P-plate problems;
They r like fresh newbies, 1 2 try out new things and excitment. Must let them make some mistake then they will learn a lesson. Luckly the incident only happen at 12am there r no much people on the road.
All the newbies will die die 1 2 try out their skills at late night,cos they thought that night time less cars on the road. But they do not know that night time is the most dangerious one. They must lookout for traffic lights especially the p-plate drivers they always tend to accelerate while approaching the traffic lights. "Don't forget that the P-plate drivers r only given 12 pts."
P-plate drivers u must also on the lookout for TPs on the certain roadblocks,especially the PIE, CTE. The TPs will always lookout for the p-plate drivers.
Hope that those p-plate drivers will endure the 12 mths probation preiod. Wish u all the best... -
sry my mistakeOriginally posted by quek:err...double L plate to be exact
-
hey...lets say if the accident reali happen...
whose fault huh....
-
im a P-plater myself..
Really hate those stupid drivers, who think they very Old Bird, den can anyhow drive.. like change lane without signalling.. idiots!!
And when i wanna change lane, signal on for very long le.. no one.. absolutely no one will give way to me... somemore accelerate.. so i can't get to change lane.. in the end, bo bian cannot U-turn take long route..
Wad the hell is wrong with all these drivers?? argh...
