Do you guys know what is traffic offence 2029 - Parking Opposite Continuous White Line?

Driving in Singapore for so long but never heard of any of my driver colleagues got summon with this offence.

Try to search in LTA one motoring site -- >http://www.onemotoring.com.sg/publish/onemotoring/en/lta_information_guidelines/modifications_and_vehoffences/vehicle_related_offences/illegal_parking.html#MainPar_90323 but do not see such offence.

Where can I find any document or site saying that "Parking opposite continuous white line"is offence?

Since offence of parking alongside double yellow and parking opposite sides of single while line are same, wondering why don't LTA draw double yellow line on the side of the road to be consistent?

It is an offence. That's way there is continuous white line and there is dotted white line. The former is in the absent of double yellow lines and essentially means the same thing...not parking along the road.

I can only think of situations where it's a one lane street, where you need yellow lines in place of a white line to denote no parking. In private residential areas, you could have a single yellow line on one side and a double yellow on the other. On bigger roads, a single white line denotes two-way street means the same thing (no parking), where to add double yellow lines would be extra (although also got).

 

Suggest your colleague should go revise their basic theory again, and don't put the blame on LTA.

Single white: No parking at all times

 

Double yellow: No parking and no waiting at all times

 

Can you see the difference?

I guess even foreigners need to take at least BTT to convert to SG license. BTW, I am not!

I guess the best way to remember is that only 2 types of lines u can park.

 

1. U can park besides dotted white line

2. U can park along single yellow line from 7pm till 7am.

 

The rest all will get fined, like that makes it easier :)
