Content creator declares Singaporeans as the worst drivers, almost everyone agrees

You might disagree with her, but you’ll be hard pressed to find much evidence against her case.

What happened?

Content creator and entrepreneur Wendi Chan, better known as @pinkkittywendi has been stirring the pot by making the bold but likely true statement that Singaporeans are the worst drivers and/or the most inconsiderate drivers in the world.

If you are angered at the above statement, I present to you all our existing articles. And SGRV.

She uses the example of how when trying to enter another lane in the event that someone has stopped in front of you, Singaporean drivers are more likely to speed up and close the gap instead of graciously letting you in.

To support this, she mentions how in other countries there is no such behaviour, that it is "common courtesy" to let the person signalling come into the lane.

Wendi also gave her own experience of another driver giving a “very rude sign” when she attempted to turn into the lane. No further elaboration on the sign but I’m sure we can all guess what it was. 

She ends off the video with her confusion on this behaviour, “I just don’t get it, what is that five seconds you can lose coming in and probably going out again because there was a vehicle stuck there? It’s just frustrating.”

Online chatter

Almost unanimous agreement.

But as always, there are outliers.

If you cant get in, wait and follow behind her car.. why frustrated?

Its the timing on when you sign your lane change intention that define whether the person is courteous or not. You suddenly signal and come in when I have to brake (harder) and risk getting rear ended. 

Worse is those who match your speed and don't let you come into their lane.

Cock lah.
Typical shitbrained driver that believes the indicator light is a magic wand that goes open sesame.

If you're so blurcock that you need to shift lanes last minute, that's on you.
Next time plan your lane so you don't cause inconvenience to others.

It's the classic case of the pot calling the kettle black.

Did she show sgp how good of a driver she is before calling others "worst"?

Call herself "content creator" but how does she conclude who is good or bad? It's merely her opinion and nobody really cares.

  • Clubbers watch out, your taxi driver might be as drunk as you

    Taxi drivers are our saviours when we’ve had one too many drinks too late in the night, especially when public transport has ended. But I think no matter how many drinks they've had, even this passenger can tell something has gone horribly wrong. What happened? A cyclist in Anchorvale was having a cool, relaxing ride at the PCN (Park Connector Network) when they saw a taxi that definitely was not supposed to be there. The exclamation of “Yo, what the f*** boi??” sums up

    Daring PMD riders go 80km/h in MCE, drivers enraged at lack of action

    If PMD can travel at 80km/h, why is my grab order so slow to travel? What happened? The footage shows the PMDs going much faster than the camcar while Chinese music blares in the background.  While the MCE is fairly empty at the time of recording, it does not change the fact that using a PMD on the expressway is illegal and unsafe in the event of an accident. If caught, first-time offenders face a fine of up to S$2,000 or up to three months in jail, or both. Repeat offe

    PAB rider gets run over after ignoring stop line at a junction, demands over $5000 in compensation

    The brakes on the car must be good, rider was wearing no protection and still escaped unscathed. What happened? On 11 September 2023, at Yishun Industrial Street 1 (because OF COURSE it was at Yishun), a food delivery rider on a PAB (Power Assisted Bicycle) ignored a stop line at a junction and was subsequently hit by a car. The car was going at around 30km/h and unable to avoid the rider, who was already onto the road and stopped moving like a deer in headlights. U
