Drive rationally and safely in Singapore and enjoy the local favor

Driving in Singapore is highly regularized as in any world class city, where you need to have a photo card driving license and traffic permits.  When I received my driver’s license in Singapore I was thrilled as it gave me the freedom and added to my mobility.  However there are a few things to keep in mind if you hail from a country where traffic rules are followed not so strictly, and if you are used to zig-zag driving. Driver Improvement Points System enables a rating of the driver against the offences he commits. Cameras are installed everywhere and your offences and over speeding is likely to get caught.  A higher rate of traffic offences may lead to cancellation of your driving license as well. So one has to be vigilant, courteous, and rational and has to abide the law to be able to continue driving in Singapore.  

Singapore car rental has a great respect for the people who have a very good record of driving in Singapore.  They can hand you over the keys of the most expensive luxury cars even, if you have an impeccable driving record. Anti-drunk driving campaigns, road-safety campaigns, road courtesy campaigns, road safety programs and weeks for cyclists and heavy motors are a norm of Singapore. Singapore maintains a very good statistics with respect to mishaps and accidents. My experience of driving in Singapore is that you ‘have’ to be a law abiding citizen in the first place to enjoy driving there.  Different ethnic communities also arrange road safety weeks through various forms of campaigns including posters and gatherings etc. as part of the social responsibilities. 

This culture is well maintained by all Singapore car rent companies. I enjoy a long term relationship with a Singapore car rent company, who are more than eager to offer me various discounts and any vehicle I wish to drive, as I never resort to rash driving and always behave nicely on roads. So my advice to the immigrants is that if you want to maintain cordial relationship with your Singapore car rental, prove it by your concern for safety and care.

Car Hire Experience with Toyota Camry Full Hybrid – “I am Loving it”

We hear word “WOW” from 3 Out Every 10 Customers who choose to go with our Latest Model of Toyota Camry Full Hybrid. There are few experiences I am bound to share here which makes me smile every time I think of them.

A group of young students were in Singapore who wanted the best car and chose Toyota Camry Full Hybrid. Honestly Speaking, I never felt the love and passion for cars earlier and may be because I live with them the whole day. For me, Knowing the customers budget and class was enough to rent out a car to them, But these students’ conversations about the cars were so loud and interesting, I couldn’t save my ears from the words and they all made me love Toyota Camry Full Hybrid in a way that I am a BIG BIG fan today and refer everyone to go with Toyota Camry as my personal interest.

The conversations started when they stepped to our office at 5 PM evening to select their car model for renting a car. I was informed by the office attendant about their arrival and I walked with a fixed mindset as usual to know their budget for the options of car rental. I was passing by the lobby to reach them at reception when I heard the loud talks about the car models. I couldn’t realize much that time that they are so much passionate about the car until I had a chorus loud voice asking 100s of questions which were all unclear to me.

I took them to the car parking area where all available models were parked and with the per day and per hour prices of both car hire services and car lease services on each of them.

We went to 3-4 Honda Models with no selection from them and then shifted to the next car which was Toyota Camry Full Hybrid. It was in silver white color. They opened the car front door of the left side and one of them sat on the driver’s seat and showed the dashboard in a style explaining the features of every part which was amazing and unlike other car models.

Integrated GPS system and touch screen DVD
Climate Control with Plasma Cluster
Rear Air conditioning and rear seat foot room
Wide luggage space
Audio aircon and cruise control switches
Ventilated seats
Powered rear sunshades
Smart start system
Smart entry system
Electro chromic rear view window
Optitron meters

Knowing these they all agreed that Toyota Camry Full Hybrid offers the privilege of a classic journey and tourism and so they had a final choice to go with Toyota Camry inspite of the fact that this was the costliest car rental among other models.

After they departed, I went to look at our feedback and comments booklet, which we offer to every customer to leave their remarks for us and our services, to find out whether these students were crazy or is it really worth spending on Toyota Camry for your traveling needs.

95% of the travelers had excellent remarks about the car mentioning about the silent engine, sound insulating windscreen and noise absorbing material in the car which ensure the complete peace and silence inside making the journey more comfortable and relaxing.

Ventilated seats and the powered rear sunshade keeps the inside temperature cool all the time to give extra energy even after a long travel in sunny days.

Few other major features like smart start and entry system, the rain sensor make it extra luxurious for a charming, delightful and a happy journey.

A day in the life with driving in Singapore!

Once I had been to Singapore for few months for my office project. I used to stay in a hotel with two of my colleagues. Coincidently we three were very much driving enthusiast. Many times earlier we had shared our driving experience. One day we chalked out our plan for car rent in Singapore and we wished to drive the car during our visit.

As we had been working there for more than 12 months, it was very easy to convert our driving license into an international driving license. Otherwise legal issue might arise while traveling and we did not want to face such a hassle.

First we decided what will be our first stop to start our thrilling journey with car driving in Singapore. Our plan was to visit FunVee DUCK, Singapore Jurong Bird Park, Dense Tropical Jungle, Sentosa Island etc to mesmerize the traditional bum and the natural coastline road and sea foods. Then we went to a Singapore car rental company. We preferred a company who can deliver the car to our doorstep wide in Singapore without any extra charge.

One of my relatives told me earlier that there are many car rent companies who can accuse us of the dents that did not happen due to our driving. Before having the car for driving in Singapore, we ensured that whether there are any dents and scratches on the car. Also we wanted to make sure that the car passed flawlessly through a series of through safety checks before it is delivered to us; because we wanted to enjoy an optimum driving experience with Singapore car rent

Then we booked a car from them and confirmed that they will deliver the car on our specified location and we will return back on time mentioned in the assigned document.
