Today's Traffic News

Driving Mummy Lim and Shauna to MIL's place today, we saw a motorcyclist waiting to cross a zebra crossing. Or perhaps he was trying to get onto the filter lane as we were making the turn onto the same filter lane. He waved for us to go ahead, so we drove past him and I waved back.
Mummy Lim was laughing at the back seat asking why I waved back, he was a motorcyclist at a zebra crossing, that's not right! Our conversation then turned to "What do you call a motorcyclist trying to cross a zebra crossing? Answer: Pedestrian" joke.

After dropping Shauna, we proceeded to drop Mummy Lim off at work. As we made another turn into a congested road, I was wondering why it was so congested. This road was never jammed like that.. Then we saw why. The Traffic Police had stationed themselves there. They were there for a reason and I thought they were trying to catch overloaded lorries ferrying workers or something of the sort. Just as we passed the TP, I saw in the rearview mirror a car had been stoppped by the TP. But it was'nt a fancy race car with mods. It was one carrying a red license plate. Then we checked the time: 0711hrs. Poor sod. Guess he never expected the TP to be in that ulu area where we work..

Then the conversation switched to why we need the TP to do this since all OPCs are going to be monitored via their IU in future. We were just rambling and laughing at how they were going to be captured: by GPS, by satelite, by distance moved or by speed moving? Note to BB: we are wrong, an E-day license can be purchased online. LTA officials will just take down the number and check against the system to see if they have violated any rules.

So that's what we talk about in the car. Silly ramblings, having a good giggle. This night shift has brought me further from Mummy Lim and Shauna but this is how we catch up LOL

No offense to any OPC owners if you happen to be reading this. No cars were harmed during the posting of this blog ;p
