taking driving lesson soon, but the way i see how driver drive is really very irresponsible and scary . don’t know if i am on roadside, will survive or not. actually we can practice safe driving but the other car on roadside they drive like maddness, they think the roadside belong to them, and they love to pick up fight, show bad sign and very ..

and BIG BULLY…...........WISH TRAFFIC POLICE CAN PICK THEM UP.

Hey, don’t be too affected by these bad experiences. There are many considerate drivers around too. You need to have some confidence in driving, otherwise, you’ll be the road hazard in future, trust me. The road’s not a place for hesitation.

ditzy SG

They should let taxi drivers into the driving circuit, for learners to experience real singapore driving. Laughing

the Bear SG

like the manual transmission thing, all it takes is practise... and time...

you gain more confidence and you know what the car can do, then you'll be fine...

and remember all these maniacs and never commit those mistakes in the future Wink

good luck!

Wait. Need to clarify things first.

Nine days ago, you told us that the previous week was your first time driving on roads. Say you scared all that.

Few days back you told us you failed your Basic Theory.

http://www.sgforums.com/?action=thread_display&thread_id=200073

Now how is it that your topic contradicts each other? Few days back you fail your theory. But many days back is your first time driving on road. Now this.

Is there a new rule that you can go on practical even though you fail your theory? Neutral

alba SG

meaning i must really explain myself very very clearly, sorry i never know i need to type all history.i am very very stress of all those drivers this morning and every morning, i am not trying to confuse anybody here,. i can explain.

ok i failed my 2nd theory last week, i did my 1st practical test last 2 weeks, ok, then i am sitting as a passenger in my h ubby car every morning to experience all those terrible horrible terrifying drivers road bully i guess. each morinig. i am not driving dear i am only a passenger hopei make myself clear and not trying to confuse ppl.

alba SG

HELLO U CAN DRIVE CAR SIT FOR PRACTICAL TEST EVEN IF U FAILED, BUT U CANNOT DRIVE IN REAL ROAD, ONLY CIRCUIT ROAD, AND AGAIN I AM NOT TRYING TO CONFUSE U.

ahduck SG

U mean Pratical test or Pratical lesson??
I'm More confuse
No PDL Means No Test..

casshern SG

if this is ur case, i seriously suggest that u do not continue taking ur driving license, i know this is hurtful, but i think u are not meant for the road.

if u get so stressed over such minor incidents, i cant imagine u taking the road.

wat u seen was only a small tiny winy handful, there are scarier drivers out there.

Talk abt bad driving habits, I saw one driver who happens to be a lady purposely speed up when another car trying to change lane. This happen in the tunnel and i think the car is trying to exit cairnhill. The car have to slow down nearly to a stop before change lane in order not to miss the exit.

When i drove by, the lady was smilling or laughing, feeling proud of herself...i think. I drove pass and gave her a disgusted look. Very inconsiderate..... Shocked

sir_boris SG

i drive quite a lot... abt 100km everyday. i must say... 99% of the time i'm in friendly environment. the secret is... friendliness starts from "myself".

if i dun expect others to road-hog, hei... i myself dun road-hog too. simple right. and bla bla bla.

sometimes some drivers had a bad day... (picked a wrong song bla bla)... just leave them alone la. who never have a bad day right?

drive safe.

alba SG

sorry i mean practical lesson.

YiFengz SG

alba: u better not drive then, u might be a hazard to the road urself.

YiFengz SG

alba: btw it seems that ure mentally imbalance lookin at the way and things u type. maybe u should go to a shrink about this.

casshern SG

no no, i dun think she's mentally imbalance, just that its the fear overcoming her. everyone has their own pobia and these pobia comes thru experience, like for me i scared of big dogs cos i was attacked by them when i was still a small kid.

and it seems she got her fear cos of her experience on the road. she dun need to see a shrink, she need to face her fear or stop driving

mhcampboy SG

yar good. then if she met with an accident... the fear will eat her up...then she becum mentally unstable already.

casshern SG

probably not mentally unstable ba, but the fear of the road may grow into something more explicit, like she will refuse to take road transport and all that.

like some pple refuse to take airplane cos they have a close shave with plane accidents all tat.

and those who do not understand what she's going thru will think she is mentally unsound, as in ur last part

mhcampboy SG

No i meant, now you want her to overcome her fears. Wad happens if she met with an accident. More jialat right?

The her fear will reach her. And she will be eaten by her fear. Soon ... she will grow mad becos of the accident.

casshern SG

maybe maybe, we cant judge her cos humans are so dynamic. but it seems like the best way out for her is to stop driving actually to avoid further implications
