Lately, I have been observing Land Transport Authority tweets and found out that there were averaging about 3 to 4 accidents reported in an hour during peak hours. To me, this is alarming. If we can exercise some patience and tolerance, give way and forgive, maybe there will be lesser accidents in a day or hopefully none. Is it because we are KIASU? Scared to lose in English. Actually the more we scare to lose, the more we will lose.
One of the factors that contribute to the determination of car insurance premiums is the claim ratio of the insurance companies. If there are more accidents and more claims, no matter who is right or who is wrong, as long as the whole claim experience is bad, the whole population of cars will be affected by higher car insurance premiums. It is just a matter of the degree of impact. Anyway, all lose, car workshops win!
So, let's be nicer to each other on the road and drive safely and calmly.
Happy driving!
