I saw a pink taxi this morning and sparkled my curiosity. There have been some commotion on taxis in the past and I can see this cab having "Hello Kitty" in the vehicle.
Some of the past incidents as shown above.
Facts
There's many taxis on the road now.

We have around 4 millions in Singapore and only 25% have cars. Such a small island but we do have a sizable car population. According to
NationMaster.Com, we we are ranking #49 out of 133 countries involved in study comparison. (Source from
