Just my opinion...a friendly word of info for rookie day shift
drivers - any pax going to suntec area or fringe like beach road,
bugis, etc. better not to accept. What is likely to happen is that
once stuck in the jam, the pax will decide that walking is faster.
Pax will alight (which i think is perfectly reasonable cos there's
no point sitting there in the jam not moving while the meter is
jumping) and you'll be stuck there for half an hour moving nowhere.
Calls aplenty but all can see cannot eat. Spoil your mood and then
you'll end up being irritable and start to drive carelessly. Kena a
few time during the 1st F1. I always advise them that it is faster
to take the MRT. Would you like me to send you to the nearest MRT
station?
Cruise in suburban areas? Most other drivers also got the same
idea.
Queue at taxi stands, got space then say. A lot of taxis plying
suburbs, taxi stands all full house, all don't want to waste diesel
sweeping. Not a good idea queing. These few days, LTA knows the
situation, so VERY actively hunting down queing taxis. Exceed the
alloted nos. at taxi stand, get picture taken, developing fees $50.
There goes your day. Monday, saw 1 LTA on bike, TACTICALLY (knn
almost like leopard crawl already) hunting taxis at Clementi City
Vibe taxi stand. A few got their pictures taken.
Don't know why suddenly so quiet this week. Monday,
1030am-12.00noon cruise from Pasir Panjang to Jurong West. Only 1
pax. $4.60 Clementi Rd/Pasir Panjang junction to Clementi Mall.
After seeing the LTA ambush, not interested to queue anywhere. My
solution...this week keep early. 1pm reach home liao.
