Now I am not trying to be boastful, but it's something I do
think about occasionally.
Yesterday a pax praised me and said my driving was extremely
smooth, my accelaration and braking was the ebst she's seen among
taxi drivers here.
Ok, la, I admit new vehicle, so I am a bit more careful, who
wants to scratch a new car, plus since it's new and only me and the
hirer, we have a chance to set a good standard in that vehicle
performance can be maintained if we drive properly, such as
ensuring no excessive accelaration during the running in etc.
But I do have good driving skils, having been a cop and gone
thru the defensive driving, intermediate driving etc, plus I also
worked as alimo driver and valet, so Ihave driver many cars, from
the best to the lousiest. In fact my limo boss liked giving me his
worst cars because he new I would make it last as long as
possible.
At one point I used to rate myself as among the the top 5% of
drivers in SG, but now I think standard drop a bit, so I would say
in the top 15% and sometimes when everything functioning properly
in the top 10%.
How would you rate yourselves? Top 10%, Top 2%, or top 20%
and so on.
Just curious, not gloating.
Even a supposedly excellent driver like me also got actually
knock down a pedestrian at a pedestrian crossing, the lights IN HIS
FAVOUR. Although it was a very minor one since my speed was around
10-15kmh, I simply overlooked that there was a crossing on both
sides on the junction, assumed there was only 1 on the left.
And I am also very lazy sometimes and my parking (whatever
position) sometimes leaves much to be desired.
So like to know what other drivers think about their skills or
ability.
Thanks
