To motorists in Singapore
When you see the car in front of you signal its intention to change lane, do slow down, give way and let that car move into your lane. The driver may be unfamiliar with the road and realised, quite late, that the car is in the wrong lane.
Do not sound the horn loudly and speed up to "chop" your place in the lane. Use your brake, rather than your horn. It does not cost you to be considerate and helpful. It will make life better for everyone in Singapore.

There are too many bicycles on the roads. They should be taken off the roads as they are dangerous to the cyclists and slowed down traffic movement considerably both the motor cars and buses. Many of these cyclists are foreigners Chinaman and Indians whose traffic behaviour are deplorable
well said..
They like to ride against the flow of traffic. Accidents can easily happen
almost everyday, someone died from accident. Usually, due to rushing & Speeding. Why Speed? How much time do you save? 10mins, 30mins?
Is it worth it? Even if you dont die, just think of the serious injury! Staying in hospital for a few weeks, in pain and agony, not to mention your loved ones who worry for you. So, is it worth it to save 10mins but end up staying 10weeks in hospital? Think about it.
Well, it takes 2 hands to clap.
How about asking those motorist not to speed up all the way to the front and try to cut queue by squeezing in at the last minute?
As much as we would like to accommodate those "genuine" cases, I believe most motorists are annoyed with those who abuse other motorists' road friendliness and take it for granted that someone is sure to give way to them.
How about joining the back of the queue like everyone else?
Hi Jaywalk
It is rude to cut queue. I hope that most drivers do not behave in this manner.
I am referring to the cases where the car has been in front, but have to change lane quiet late, due to unfamiliarity with the road. I have been in this situation before, and I find quite often that the cars behind do not give way. This seems to be a quite typical habit in Singapore.
