Prostitution usually involve the buyer inspecting the goods on site and if the buyer is satisfied, the transaction would occur at the place of inspection, much like a dine-in.

It seems things have changed a little, according to some photographs found on a citizen journalism website, Stomp.

The photographs showed a number of motorists in their cars chatting up the prostitutes in the small lanes of Geylang.

Scantily clad women were shown lined up by the roadside, peering around for clients.

Instead of checking out the wares on foot, 'consumers' cruise past in their cars.

Some pictures also showed the motorists chatting up the prostitutes from their cars.

Some prostitutes were also caught on camera leaving in the cars, with the car number plates shown in its full glory.

George, the Stomper who posted the pictures, said that 'it is a great deterrent for married or attached couples.'

A lesson could probably be learnt here: be discreet if you want to be indiscreet. Leave your cars behind.
