Owning a car in Singapore, one of the world’s most expensive countries, has always been something of a luxury. But costs have now soared to an all time high.
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.
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.
I mean on the other end of the spectrum, you NEED car because there’s no public transport. Just cross the island and you will see why that wish is quite a monkey’s paw.

Where are you on a train in Singapore for that long?
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.

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
Name a city with decent public trans that isn’t super packed during peak periods. I’ve never seen one.
Which trip can be that long?

That takes an hour, and would be a weird journey to do regularly.
