Learning of routes is understandably not simple for us, our
brain memory is not so good as scholars mah, if our coconut head is
good, still driving taxis meh??
But then, as slow learner, we still can learn slowly. Most
important are the bigger routes.
Start with Expressways, study each closely, each exit lead
to where and how you can use it to your advantage. This is the most
critical of it, like barltey east out from KPE, what from south,
how you use it, from north, where can it lead you to, spent some
time per day to study each, and you shall be able to master it.
Beside some changes of roads, roads are dead, you are alive, it up
to you to decide turn left or right.
GPS is a good tool, but overly rely on it, get you not far,
before long, it become a must for you, without it, you cannot
operate and lack confident,
Unless you really at lost, then use your GPS, once you know the
route to a particular place, once you got a chance, try to navigate
that place again without GPS , in this way, you learn faster and
more confident. In another word, GPS is spoonfeeding, once spoon
removed, you cannot get feeding, we do not like to see this
happen.
Once you know route well, you definitely are more confident and
relaxing, instead of tense and more stress, when free at home, try
to question yourself, from Bukit Merah hoyfatt road to Raffles
hotel, which way, do it in your brain, then from Raffles to CCK,
which way, this are call mind routing, you think in silence, just
like you are driving in the cab thinking in silence the option of
the road, the best is to discuss with pax, he or she may give you
the best road
