Ya lor....

When this happen can only blame our bad luck..... Ditch them also wrong, fetch them vomit also knn..... must keep my eyes open from now.........

Bro Darknike, I usually avoid calls in town area at city late night. Not because of vomit but high chances of call cancel because lots of taxis will appear. But suay will still kena vomit from street hails. So far, touch wood, nothing bad.

Raining be extra careful......if too heavy must as well close shop early rather than anything untoward happen......loss of income better than bigger loss if accident.....

Darknike · New Member

Yes Sir,

If too heavy i will just park at petrol kiosk to take a break first and monitor. Last nite rain around 9pm at jurong east. So early keep meh? But town start raining around 10pm only....

Yes bro must see situation....nowadays rain also very unpredictable - sometimes very heavy for short while then stop - but drizzle must be cautious abit - u observe drizzle or light rain - more accidents because many driver think can cheong when drizzle only - no matter how good your tire is - breaking distance is increased .and more chance of skid......

tires from the taxi company are lousy quality.

if you drive fast and is very concern of your safety, spend a bit and get quality tires from the tire shop yourself.

for $100 / pc x 4 pcs = $400 or less, you should able to drive 50,000 km or 5-6 months.

if you share with a relief, $200 each only. biggrin

Yah, can't tahan those speeding cabbies. One nearly bang into me when coming out from a side road into Orchard road, did not give way, just cheong. Luckily I was alert and avoided a collison. Why add more stress and trouble when driving normally already so stressful, esp at night. Can't see the signs clearly, red, green lights also sometimes confusing.

It is always like that, when you don't kena accident, you will take things for granted. When kena, regret too late liao.
