Was travelling along AYE this evening from tuas in the direction
of the city. It was peak hour traffic at that time and the traffic
are moving really slow. From far, I coiuld see an ambulance
sounding its siren and I was surprise to see that the cars infront
just continue to remain in the lane without moving across to give
way to the ambulance.
My question here is, Is singapore driver that inconsiderate or is
it that they dont know what to do in a situation like this. From my
experience when driving in the US, I know that in a situation like
this, cars infront will move aside and create an additional lane
for the ambulance. So why is this not happening in Singapore? Is
this the TP's fault that they didnt teach singapore drivers to do
that in a situation where traffic is slow moving and impossible to
change lane.
I hope the TP could do something to address this problem.
