    good luck kung makakaiwas ka sa traffic pag peak period.
    me time na parang pinas na rin ang traffic dito lalo na sa CBD.

    so kung ang pupuntahan nyo outside CBD - ok pa magdrive. pero kung
    madalas kayo pupunta sa mga mall - lalo na sa orchard or
    holland area - malaking oras din mauubos sa traffic.

    if you have special needs like if you have a baby, old people or PWD
    to ferry around - pwede naman taxi. di naman aabot ng $30 yung isang
    byahe mo for the regular cabs, unless na early morning (with surcharge yun).

    but then - if you still want to drive:
    yes - parking. lahat ng "convenient" parking areas me bayad.
    hanap ka ng libre - either puno na yun, malayo sa pupuntahan
    mong building or me babayaran kang fine pag soli mo ng oto.
    - toll fees (ERP)

    saka RHD dito - baka malito ka rin.

    I find it more convenient to take the train or taxi while in SG.

    Also it would be wise to have the phone number to a couple of cab companies if you plan to go to certain areas not normally serviced by taxi cabs or it is late at night. This way, you can request for a pickup at your location. I once had a late night out with a friend of mine who works in SG. She just called for a taxi pickup to our location because no cabs normally pass through the area.

    Agree here. Take the bus and train as much as possible (get one of those stored value cards) and keep the taxi cab number handy. You'll be fine without a car.

Rental Cars in Singapore?
