14. Daily Driving - Its easier to change lanes without signalling then if you actually signal

15. Driving Safely - There is a nationwide drive safe campaign going on BUT our eyes are constantly screening the overhead bridges instead of keeping our eyes on the road

16. ERP - Pay to go into town...pay to go OUT of town too (CTE).

17. CPF - We pay, pay and pay yet some more...some ppl get free use of OUR hard earned money to invest (badly at that *cough*investmoreinchinaplslol*cough*) AND we get told that we cant even touch that money till we are geriatrics

18. CPF 2 - a big portion of the male geriatrics who DO manage to take out, most of but not all of, their OWN money...proceeds to squander away that cash in a month or two on ugly, hairy women from the motherland.
