Fine & points deducted for not signalling.
-
Just heard from a cabby that he was caught not signalling when changing lane by TP on the road.Think they are getting tough on this as more and more drivers(all type of cars) OTR don"t make it a habit to signal.Don"t said i never tell you hor.
-
Good move ....
-
Really? Where got time? TP now cunt be bother much. They are being used for escorting VVIPs. How many TP you can see on the rd a day?
The cabby got caught was juz unlucky.
Ask them go and catch private cars especially Subaru Impreza la.

Foreigner pax asked me why no TP on the road. I reply him that you only see them in major accidents, they got LTA Road Marshall as their assistants already. To me, TP only work hard only when appraisal for their bonus are near. They are venerable to all other road users, they drive in a way they think is right, who cares, they says. Here money talks, if got money can hire best lawyer to fight for you in court. This is what I feel living here. So many traffic accidents OTR. Still see so many drivers disobey traffic rules on road. Nowadays especially those driving luxury car drivers talking on their phones with no ear piece or bluetooth while driving? See them no up. These smart ppl out there dun bring their brains out. Thats why I say Drivers here like to Risk(有冒险精神). To me, I refers them as road idiots, always make other road users a bad day.

yeah TP should be hard on all this TD , nv signal can cause accident , best is if they let all this TD who dun signal sent to jail , i nearly got into a accident with a taxi who suddenly cutted into my lane without signalling. And i have to jam brake , my vehicle have got passenger and so is his cab , he is endangering the safety of the pax in his car and also my vehicle. But yet some taxi forumers here still can support him. tsk tsk , nth to say. And i mean some hor. not all =)) -

Nowadays I see cars giving signal when they cut into lanes.
You see them drift nearer and nearer to the lane marking then the front wheel cross the lane lines they quickly signal and cut infront of you. Very rude, but they got signal what.

hmm u mean TD dun do that? i seen quite a few wor. =)) -
Yes TD don't do that kind of flash signalling.
I see them afraid to knock into others or afraid others knock into them.
If they cut into here and there is because they need to turn because of the pax last minute instruction.
Its not I support them, its because my in-law, my friends, my neighbour, my former colleagues are taxi drivers, I hear their stories.

Sungei Gedong lar knn .... only SilverCab entertain Sungei Gedong Camp . -
I think Traffic Police also must catch those who accelerate when see others signal .
Most civilian drivers do not give way to taxis , even when taxis putting on the signals .

Changing lanes is skills not luck
signal and change lanes in a way so dat other veh have got no change to corner you
-
I always make it a habit when i drive to put my btt/ftt book in the car so when langga can flip to the page and slam to the driver at fault. But then again, i so far so good la, touch wood. If the driver signal in time i will slow down, if the driver dont signal in time i will honk and flash lights. So always remember to signal your intention at least 3secs early and honk to warn drivers of danger :)

veyr common. agreed changing lane is skill but i think also a bit of luck. one time i saw in front lane one car moving right into centre lane, should be quite safe. but suddenly rightmost lane car break, the car behind it caught by surprise also swerve left together into same centre lane, both almost bang, both horn like crazy, each one blaming the other, but if accident already then how? -

not everyone good boy good girl like you. another time i was on small road leading out from a school. one driver very gan joing, without signal jump into my lane. i stamp break i think almost 1 Foot or 12 inches from the back. my passnger witness also very shock. later when at traffic light we come up next to that car, then we realise the driver is mother parent scolding her child next to her about her homework, they having heated exchange about some exercise book. the woman dont even know we all looking at her next side, shes very engrossed in getting upset with her child, keep looking down sideways and backseat. ifi you look carefully, sometimes certain drivers also purposely dont give signals and drive haphazard, they hope you will hit them by slip of attention, because their back already got damage, maybe its not their car or company vehicle, or they owed casino. -

Is the driver to be blame. If the driver don't have the habbit to signal, whatever vehicle the drive he also won't signal.
