STOMPer Sharina's friend was hit by a taxi while cycling. The cabby 'made a lot of noise' when paying for her friend's injection at a nearby clinic, and refused to send the friend to NUH when the doctor recommended she go for an x-ray.

"On Jan 26 2012, my friend was cycling along Pioneer Road North after fetching her son and was knocked down by a taxi driver at the zebra crossing.
"The taxi driver did not want to take any responsibility. He only sent her to a nearby clinic and paid $64 for her injection.
"He made a lot of noise when paying. He also refused to send my friend to NUH even though the clinic's doctor had recommended that my friend go for an x-ray, and my friend was unable to walk.
"We told the taxi driver to send us to the nearest police station as we wanted to lodge a report. When we arrived at the Jurong Division Police Station, we were greeted by Officer Kumar who advised us to proceed to NUH and even called an ambulance for my friend.
"We lodged a police report on Friday, Jan 27 2012 and we are waiting for the outcome.
"I just hope that the taxi driver will be brought to justice for his carelessness."

The time spent on fetching you here and there, paying bills, the driver could have been fetching other people around. Of course he's mad.. Yknow it's not entirely his fault.
U r not the taxi driver! I guessed you are related to the taxi driver. In these zebra crossing situation, taxi has to slow down when approaching zebra crossing. Not quickly DASH across. Nowadays, taxi driver in Singapore is a F1 driver. If not, tan bo jiak!
