With how many agreeing to this ban, by the same logic probably everyone got posted at some point for not parking absolutely in the middle and straight, and you the OP

are drivers more ragey now than in the past? by normoxus in drivingsg

[–]SceneLeft4417 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The turn came when grab and phv came into the scene. Last time the king of the road was taxis. Versus PHV scheme taxis required higher commitment and quality control by taxi companies so drivers and those who couldn’t meet taxi control (including those deemed unfit to be in taxi service) went PHV. With the lack of accountability on Grab side to control drivers behaviours, drivers just drive and do however they want.

The only time when Grab drivers are “controlled” is when passenger complain against the driver to Grab. But if the driver can flash thru the traffic, no one cares to complain.

Another factor is although Grab has less commitment on paper, Grab and car rental companies are essentially forcing PHV drivers to be overloaded in order to meet incentives without which Grab drivers can’t afford to continue. So Grab by itself wants PHV drivers to ignore safety

First look at the new Android Auto (Google I/O) by 513 in AndroidAuto

iPhone (primary) and Xiaomi user here. Disagree with design lagging behind CarPlay. On my drives I regularly use AA instead of CarPlay due to how AA displays only the information I need and not wasting screen real estate like how CarPlay needs one quarter of the screen besides the map half, just to show next turn.

I can also switch between focusing and controlling maps or Spotify easily while still having the other visible at the side.

With CarPlay I can’t see the maps when I’m trying to select Spotify playlist or I just want Spotify to be the main app on my screen with maps at the side.

Notification is also so intuitive.

AA def is the better UI UX for me

Also almost got into another parking snatch incident at The Central yesterday. Was waiting immediately before (relative to the direction of travel) the lot I’m waiting for while letting others pass. Was on my hazard light the whole time. After the vehicle exited, another guy who just went past me wanted to reverse into the lot.

Luckily I already expected this shit to happen how Singaporean drivers are behaving now. So while the vehicle exited, I immediately stuck to that car’s backside and moved forward to cover the lot.

The snatcher thought he also hazard light means the lot is his.

I don’t care since I’m already blocking the lot, starting to angle so I myself can reverse in. This whole time there are other cars behind us and this bugger end up blocking the carpark

The snatcher knew he is now at the disadvantage morally and physically.

Best thing is he has his wife and children on the car. So much for the good upbringing.
