On the road

Whoah....almost got into an accident on my way back from work last Fri! A car just swerved into my lane without the signal lights on at all! Wah… really irritated by these inconsiderate people on the road.... anyway, I really don’t understand :
* how some of these people enjoy cutting lanes – toll lanes some more ! Is there a certain thrill of deliberately switching lanes at the very last minute? Wanna see real examples? LDP toll every morning without fail…sigh …
(Worst still, some went to a SMART TAG lane and realized that they only have cash!)
* Turning without signaling – my friends, there are reasons for those sticks to be installed !!!
* Taxi drivers stopping suddenly to pick up passengers …. Mind you they stop everywhere, but the taxi stands….I could not count the times I had my near misses with them.
* And if we do let anyone pass us first, please have the courtesy to acknowledge our kind gesture, perhaps lifting your hands or flash a smile…. Don’t act as if you have the right to go first and others have to give way to you….
* Switch on the car lights when it’s dark or when it’s raining! ….it's really dangerous for us all if you don't, coz you will be "invisible".
* But, please don’t on the hazard lights when it's raining!! Hazard lights are meant for stationery cars ….
* Please don’t throw your rubbish out of the car windows …. The extent of damage to the car behind you will depend on the speed of your car and the size of the rubbish you threw out!
* Double parking !!! It’s a BIG BIG sin. Park where you are supposed to and don’t hoard the road…
* Rolling down your windows, driving at a tortoise’s pace while smoking a cigarette.....and the whole world waits behind you in a long queue. Please...you don't own the road, get a move on.
* Speeding !! The road is not a race track – 2 words: Speed Kills.

Govt efforts are futile. Couple of years back they were penalizing errant drivers with demerit points... Whatever happened to that now? Is anyone keeping track of our points?
Let’s learn to respect each other on the road, hopefully we can become more courteous drivers then.
