Cars are extremely expensive in Singapore, and driving here is becoming increasingly frustrating, what with constant road congestions, seemingly endless roadworks, and inconsiderate drivers, some of whom appear never to have heard of turn signals.
Seriously considering selling our family’s 3 petrol cars and replacing them with a small EV (byd racco, if it ever comes to Singapore) only for grocery runs, especially if Waymo becomes a reality here. I’m not a fan of the inconsistent experience offered by Singapore’s private-hire operators, such as Grab, where poorly maintained vehicles and questionable driving standards are not uncommon.
I also hope Waymo eventually uses the China made Zeekr Ojai in Singapore rather than the Jaguar I-Pace.
Singapore is actually pretty good about congestion, what with CoE and congestion charges.
Isn't public transport good enough?
Unfortunately the nearest MRT station is at least a 30 mins walk from where we live.
I guess that's a choice you made when you selected that place?
That sounds mildly disingenuous. Surely there are buses nearby that connect to the MRT station?
