RSA Tips for Singapore Drivers Taking Kids to Legoland Malaysia | MyMechanic
The Goal: A Meltdown-Free Road Trip
Driving to Legoland Malaysia is a rite of passage for many Singaporean families. It's close, it's fun, and the kids love it. But a car breakdown can turn a dream day trip into a stressful ordeal, especially with excited (and soon-to-be-impatient) children in the back seat. The key isn’t just hoping for the best; it’s having a solid plan for the worst.
Pre-Trip Essentials: Your First Line of Defense
The Most Important Check of All
What to Do if You Break Down with Kids on Board
If your car does break down, your priority is to keep everyone calm and safe.
Safety First: Pull over to the shoulder, turn on your hazard lights, and keep your family inside the car unless it's unsafe to do so.
Make the Call Immediately: Contact your RSA provider, like MyMechanic. Give them a clear, simple location (e.g., "On the highway to Legoland, about 10km after the Tuas checkpoint").
Keep the Kids Occupied: This is where the emergency kit comes in. Break out the snacks, drinks, and a tablet or book to keep their minds off the delay.
Stay Positive: Your kids will take their cues from you. If you stay calm and treat it as a minor delay, they are more likely to do the same.
