Mercedes taxi drivers all drive very fast & reckless,maybe they want to 'show off'.?They tailgate,speed & overtake in a way,like king of the road,yesterday saw a Merc taxi ram into a car along Sims Ave East,the car was giving way to people crossing the road[green man on traffic light],while this Merc cab just ram behind,luckily,the car block the taxi crashing to the persons or else........they sure get killed.!
-
coz the mercedes cab is the E220 CDI, can't step on the pedal too much..
so anybody was injured during the RTA..
-

170 bhp @ 3800
BUT
400 Nm of torque @ only 2000.

Its the driver that causes the accident, not the vehicle.
Can the driver step out of the taxi and shrug his shoulders and say "Maseedi boh pian"
-
those ppl nv drive a merc before. now got chance to drive one, drive it hard and fast. get used to it. 99.9% of them can't even afford a car, let alone a merc.

Nobody was injured,BUT the couple crossing the roads were in shock. -
a few days ago i travelled in a silver volkawagen cab from tampines to toa payoh.
the driver, a grand prix driver wannabe, took only 11 mins to get me there.

agreed

fast and safe can. i also drive fast and safely mah. so long as still can accelerate, i accelerate if the road is clear.
but this merc driver... is only his timing and alertness not that good at that time. so it's his fault.
these sort of accidents at left-turn zebra crossings with traffic islands are common. the 2nd car always think the 1st going str8 w/o stopping one. -
the faster they drive..the more passengers they might be able to ferry within their shift mah..
-
Fast
but safe
is ok
for me.
That's all folks!
-
They can be reckless... Especially when changing lanes and coming out from slip road.. They never check their blind spots! Ok.. Not all of them... Almost had one accident with a taxi... Driving fast but with safety caution eg. signal, checking of blindspots etc etc... It's ok... Hate those who drive slow... And when you want to over take them.. They speed up to block you from overtaking them..

lol u ask the taxi to try lor. when i say yishun. it means i parked my car and inside my house. not showing off, but that day i was in a rush and i didnt even realise it took me that fast. -
i ever sat on a merc cab which hit about 150km/h on TPE,which i feel tat it is quite fun(cuz i youngster mah) , i also feel quite safe due to the airbag,esp,abs........If it's a crown,my balls would definately shrink.
