Perhaps they are just like the ladies in white shirt with hats and a gadget in arm, hunting for targets to clock their daily quotas.
Thanks to the uber narrow pedestrian path and the ever-red traffic light that seems to favour the vehicles than pedestrians, it's not unusal for those who had freshly alighted from the two buses plying by that bus stop to simply cross the road to either the mrt station or the bus interchange at the traffic light (when there is NO traffic - please that road is not that busy most of the time.... ) rather than crowd around that small waiting area waiting for mr green man to lit up.
Anyhow, the two mops in blue appeared from the bushes and demanded the pink card from the slightly impatient ones who doesn't have the time to wait till mr green arouse from bed. oh well.. yours truly obviously help mr mop to make his daily quota.. and added a very insignificant contribution to the nation reserve (i reckon the nice invoice will be posted soon). mr blue man had indeed painted Monday Blue for me. Anyway, wonder why they don't hide stand guard with their camera in hand to snap those silly 4 wheelers (ie the motorists) who sped away at amber/red (instead of slowing down) at the pedestrian crossing in between my office block & the merril lynch. I think the harvest would be plentiful...
still that involuntarily contribution to the nation is about 1/3 cheaper of hailing a cab. On the Ah-Q side, that's about 33% savings. ^.^"
I think i prefer Mr Zebra to the silly Green/Red man. At least mr Zebra is very reliable and not inflexible like the pre-programmed mr green/red (sometimes amber for those with wheels).
Zebra (crossing) rules!
