You must also understand human psychology, some of it,
is by life experiences, even pychologist never learn, you
see, when you met an authorised person with authority, dun ignore
them, quickly show some respect, signal and give intention of
signally out, but if you remain like he or she is invisible,
do you think he or she is going give you chance??
Everyday, we TD on the road is sure to make certain offensive
turns, cuts and stop, for this TP or LTA also know, but as long as
your admit yr mistake and respect them, the chances of summon might
reduce by 50%, like once I got a call, make an illegal U turn, TP
on bike just infront saw it,
I quickly wave my hand in an apological manner, he saw my action
and my on call sign above, but he gives me a stern look and wave a
index finger indicating no more such action, and
then waved me to move on. I was not booked, but if get
booked, also my fault, no one to blame.
We must all know that every traffic sign on the road is put up
with a purpose, the purpose can be because of danger, or because of
wanting a smoother traffic, TP or LTA dun just put a no parking
there for fun. And if we are going to flaunt it, we need to be wary
and respect our bad.
Apologising is not about who is right or wrong, it is about
keeping an on going relationship, saying sorry, it my fault, can be
every hard for some, especially those with high egos, but when
spoken out, it open a big wide road for you. And between peoples,
it is about letting off the ego and built a stronger
relationship.
