One of the thing I hated the most is to encounter with cab drivers who love to use dishonest tactics to earn more money
Sometimes, I wish I could just squash them with my bare hands and leave them to die with open wounds *oops sadistic*
A few days ago, we met up with this cab driver who nearly drove us all around Singapore. Took the cab from the Singapore Zoo and was heading towards Funan DigitaLife Mall when he started bringing us all the way to Choa Chu Kang/Upper Bukit Timah before heading to the expressway
We were wondering why would he go all the way to CCK when he could just head towards Rochor Road. Obviously, he is making use of the heavy traffic in hope to increase the meter fare discreetly. When we started asking him about it, he did not even bother to give us a reply and continued driving. How rude?!
And then this morning, I took 518 @ 0830 hours from my workplace. I was extremely exhausted from the shift the previous night and was catching a short nap in the bus when I heard the bus driver shouting at the top of his voice all of a sudden. Apparently, he had forgotten the way to Pasir Ris and was asking for assistance through the system. The ironic thing is, he started driving the bus from Orchard to Tanjong Katong, then to Geylang and back to Orchard again!
Not only that, he nearly endangered the lives of the 3 ladies in the bus (including mine of course) by stopping the bus in the middle of the expressway and ignoring the heavy traffic. Furthermore, he even had the nerve to honk other drivers when he was the one at fault. A normal 30 minutes journey took almost 1 hour 15 minutes today
How do we stop drivers from making these mistakes?
Too tired to think as well, I have a huge load of backdated stuff to blog but no time to do so!

wow..someone had a bad morning..cheer up..think of the not spicy curry..lol
Hey, y did u continue sitting in that cab? u should have got off like asap…
Once, i had to like talked my way out with this reckless cab driver. Moreover, i had to be cautious with my words as not to aigate him so much, cos he’s like those Chao Lao Ah Beng kind. XD Sitting in his cab, took half my life away~
And its kinda hard to believe i reached home unhurt. lolx
This experience made me realized 1 thing… Try not to take cabs tt are red with white top. Cos those cabs in tt company, are usually those old uncles who cant make it into Comfort or any other cab company.
If u take a gd look and observe, most of them are totally those who cant speak proper mandarin, only dialects. And due to their old age, its hard for them to maintain their professionalism.
*PS: lucky i copied my comment, possible to remove the 1 above? hahhaa…
