It is soon going to be more and more difficult in future to load potential passengers for me even when they flag me along roads where there are white lines, single and double yellow zig-zag lines.
The simple reason for this is because the Government is soon going to install CCTV (closed circuit television) cameras along roads to capture wayward, unlawful and indiscriminate parking of all vehicles. The fine for such offences will be between $50.00 to $120.00 and thats not a small sum.
This soon to be installed CCTVs is the result created by who else? For being 'kiasu' (afraid to lose out) and inconsiderate most of the time, disregarding, causing undue inconveniences, disobeying traffic rules and regulations and finally causing road congestions, we have ourselves to blame.
We have maybe about six months more to enjoy 'free' parking as preparations for installations of these detecting 'eyes' get underway. I can envisage loss of income for taxi drivers in the near future because we will definitely be 'camera shy' for sure.
