I wish to highlight a few situations I’ve observed that reflect the poor driving attitudes of motorists here ( , Feb 1). Motorists who disregard the yellow boxes and those who do not signal when making a turn are being disrespectful towards other motorists, apart from breaking the rules. On expressways, it is common to see slow-moving lorries, trucks and vans travelling on lanes meant for faster-moving vehicles, and this contributes to traffic build-up. To address such issues, there needs to be more effective enforcement action against inconsiderate motorists. Motorists are so absorbed in their own challenges that it leads to a lack of civic consciousness. We need to bring back the spirit of respecting other motorists.
