Looking at the kind of ST Forum letters that had been appearing lately, which completely succeeded in entertaining and amusing me, while at the same time betraying a lack common sense of knowledge on the part of those who wrote the letters, I’ve decided to start a new segment on my blog called ST Forum Discussion, where I share with you guys fantastic letters as well as some discussion. It is inevitable that I may offend some people with my commentary, and for that I apologize in advance.

Motorists not giving way to pedestrians at zebra crossings
I take frequent walks along Choa Chu Kang Road and Bukit Panjang Road. Although there are a number of zebra crossings along these two stretches, often cars do not give way to pedestrians who use them to cross to the other side.

Many times, the drivers pretend not to see us and continue driving at a fast speed. During heavy traffic, some motorists are forced to stop and pedestrians have to walk their way around the cars.

There are also motorists who do not stop before the stop line at the pedestrian crossings. And even when the lights are still in the pedestrians’ favour, there are impatient drivers who just can’t wait to drive on. This is a common sight in the Orchard area too.

Another selfish behaviour I have seen are cars parking in loading and unloading lots and even the handicapped lots in the car parks. This is rampant in new estates in the Choa Chu Kang and Bukit Batok areas.

This kind of thing is for ah sohs and ah sohs-to-be to chat about and tell their family one. This also don’t read like a warning to other fellow Singaporeans. It just barely points out how selfish those around you are. Write to ST got use?
