        Lol I’m guessing you’ve never taken bart or the mta. Singapore’s mrt is leagues better.

        On the other hand, can you even comprehend what traffic and parking would be like if Singapore had US car laws? You should come to the states and try commuting daily into downtown SF or NY and see what that’s like.

        public transport journeys get less comfy as demand increases, but car journeys just take longer

        like a 30 minute journey taking 2-3 hours kind of longer

        idk about you, but I’d rather endure some discomfort than spunk hours of my day down the drain

        Fuck me, what MRT ride takes more than 1.5 hours? I’ve done Tampines to Admiralty before and it was less than that.

        You need to travel more, perhaps you’ll appreciate our public transport some more. There’s a reason why you’re not getting support here. You’re just sounding like an entitlted person who wants a luxury mode of transport in a small city state that’s already pretty crowded with cars despite the stupid prices on them.

          Not OP but it’s possible if you stay in the north like CCK or Sembawang and need to travel to Changi Business Park for work.
