driving singapore style

i may seem an aggressive and a self-righteous person when i am behind the wheels. this is because of my low tolerance for certain types of drivers.

those who do not form up and who try to squeeze in at the last minute. should we be courteous and give way to such drivers? they know they have to turn left and yet they keep to the right lane; they stay in the right lane until the last minute, then they make their move.

the other type that i abhor is the one who drives very fast and tailgate you even when there is no chance for you to change to the left lane. or those who tailgate you when you are in the middle lane, even when the right lane is clear and safe for overtaking.

then there are those who keep switching lanes. without bothering to signal.

i also cannot stand the flashers. they flash their lights at you even when you are going as fast as you can - within the legal limit - and have no chance to move to the left lane.

there is also this class of drivers who mistakenly believe that they have more rights on the road just because they are providing a service, for which they are paid. they cut into your lane without warning, without signalling their intention. they move out or off without care for other road users. they go over the speed limit on the way to and from the airport, as if they have a mission to accomplish.
