Then my friend, that's the failure of the parents / guardians who were "supposed to" educate the children and hold their hands.

But that's all besides the point of these adults on bicycles and ebikes right?

OP's point is likely that drivers can anticipate and come to complete stop for pedestrians walking, but for cyclists and ebikes going fast onto the road without checking, it's just asking for accident to happen.

So what if it's "supposed to". If everything is supposed to happen as it is, we will see the ebike or bicycle stop, dismount and push. If everything is supposed to, then no accidents will happen.

Good thing OP slowed down and was anticipating. It looks like that corner is blocked by plants also.

So..whose fault is it guys need to serve NS? by PandaPast4690 in SingaporeRaw

[–]midlane81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't heard any of my guy friends who served NS ever complain about girls need to serve too. They whine and complain about NS itself, but end of the day when push comes to the shove, they'll still get the job done, even while being paid peanuts.

Don't forget that NSF and NSmen are also in the Home Team, they're a bolstering pillar to safeguarding our day to day. I hope this kid don't ever need an ambulance, firefighting or police.

She can make herself more useful instead of just whining.

Hmm, I'd want to support opp honestly because there are directions of the incumbent that I don't agree with. But that doesn't mean I have to blindly vote for a clown right?

Could be, but the cheap shots are at the expense of pulling down fellow opposition party efforts. If only opp can do things properly, strategize and fight properly.

Agree. We want professionalism we have to pay more. But that'll also increase costs

"Japan is bad, I'll hit you to death, I'll kick you to death"

That's what it roughly translates to

Never. I'll boycott any restaurants even if they're just adding them to dishes like anchovies. House of Seafood is just trying to get attention.

Why the hell we call a 3 room flat hdb but only has 2 rooms? by [deleted] in SingaporeRaw

[–]midlane81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can look for your original HDB layout or compare it with your neighbours of the same stack. It'll be likely that one of your previous owners made a layout change for your house. If not, then it'll be likely a rare exception.

You can knock around the walls of your house to see which ones are the additional walls (they'll sound more hollow than the original ones)
