Having taken a cab with my son last year, it was difficult not to be sliding around all over the back seat. I am sure you can develop various techniques to counter this, but in the UK I wouldn't dream of getting in a regular car with him without a child seat (and the authorities would string me up). Different story with city buses though, and not surprisingly given the fact I'd rather be in a bus than a car if the two collided...

Regent was owned previously by Four Seasons, however this brand was sold to Carlson around 4 years ago IIRC. Four Seasons must still have the management contract of the Singapore property I guess? I have stayed here previously- and it is not that nice (a little bit dated). My suggestion would be go to the Shangri-La and stay at the gorgeous Valley Wing.
