In Mr Sim book,he wrote,
In the US, when there is no sign on the road, it means that you can
make a U-turn. When the authority do not want people to make
U-turns, they will put up signs to tell you not to make
U-turns.
In Singapore, it is the reverse. When there is no sign on the
road, you are not allowed to make U-turns. When the authority
allow you to make U-turns, then they will put up signs to give
you that right.
The two different systems serve the same purpose - to better
manage the traffic.
They may look quite similar, just coming from different
direction, but the social repercussion is significant.
In Singapore, the no U-turn without sign culture has permeated
every level of our thinking and every segment of our life.
This no U-turn has created a way of life that is based on
rules. When there is a U-turn sign or when there is a rule, we
can U-turn. When there is no sign, we cannot U-turn.
This is call No U-Turn
Syndrome (NUTS).
In our HOME, What is
Legal and what is illegal, we can't just simply based
on logic, All depend on the AUTHORITY.
As a TD, For the Survival of our Love one, everyday OTR for
10~15 Hours, you can't just suka suka do what you want, just
like our childhood our Papa / Mama told us, You can't don't
this, you can'y do that or else Mata catch you.
We Treasure our TDVL, To us "when there is U Turn sign then we U
Turn" For our family and Love one, we are all NUTS.
