    The logic with taxis is that rather than everyone have an individual car, people use them as needed, so 1 car serves dozens of people.

      A car serves maybe two people for a day. A taxi serves maybe four people in an hour. A bus serves several dozen people in an hour. A train serves hundreds of people in an hour.

      I am aware that Singapore has a world class train network already, but any money spent on car infrastructure instead of train infrastructure is, if you ask me, wasted, especially in a city as dense as Singapore.
