City buses are another form of transportation that MANY people use. Public transportation is clean and safe here in Singapore.
This big yellow bus zooming by is a SAS (Singapore American School) bus. SAS has a fleet of 100 buses that travel the island in the morning and afternoon dropping kids off. Each bus has a driver and "bus lady" that helps the kids. And the kids have seat belts to wear!!!
There are 24,000 taxi's in the city of Singapore.
This is about the biggest truck you will see on the roads. There are no semi's like you see at home. No big, gas guzzling SUV's either...only small ones.

This is a picture of Steven's Road. It is the main road in front of our street. We live on Walshe Road. Most taxi drivers are not familiar with it because it is such a small street but if you tell them its off of Stevens Road they can get you there! If you notice the traffic is all coming in one direction...most of the streets are divided this way...you pull out and are forced to go one direction or the other...in order to go another direction you have to drive a ways and U-turn which is legal here...in fact they have specific marked U-turn spots for you to use.
