Yeobt Supercharged January 12, 2015 Share January 12, 2015 it looks so stupid to have a lane that could be used for going straight and right turning only to be jammed up by one car in front the lights. i wrote to LTA to suggest that the lights should be made more productive by allowing the 2 directional lights (straight and right turning) be passable at the same time. LTA replied > We found that this is the best arrangement for that junction. case closed. ok, i'm not a scholar. another one i found is the junction outside CQ MRT station on eu tong sheng st. ↡ Advertisement 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wt_know Supersonic January 12, 2015 Share January 12, 2015 (edited) isn't this normal? how can turn right when the other direction also moving? yeah i encounter many of these sort of traffic light setting after awhile the turn right will be green and go straight also remain green so that the car behind the turn right can go straight Edited January 12, 2015 by Wt_know 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcf777 Turbocharged January 12, 2015 Share January 12, 2015 Bro. They are so many such traffic junction in Singapore. If u are going straight, u always have to give yrself extra 1car length in case the front idiot going to turn right and Dont want to put on signal right. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibadog Turbocharged January 12, 2015 Share January 12, 2015 isn't this normal? how can turn right when the other direction also moving? when there is no oncoming traffic, also cannot turn right, due to the red arrow. i think they meant to use this when one can't quite see oncoming traffic in the distance (view is blocked for some reason), but not always the case. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wt_know Supersonic January 12, 2015 Share January 12, 2015 (edited) actually, go straight and turn right both green (no red arrow) is dangerous for so many times ... kuku driver under estimate the travel speed from opposite and cheong resulting accident in such accident, the impact is sibei jialat because it's side collision and normaly high speed it's better safe than late weighting the benefit of having red arrow and accident, i will vote for red arrow 1 life lost is too many already the other thing is left/right turn and green man together ... this is also a problematic and cause accident i know time is wasted but again ... safety vs time ... can't have both when there is no oncoming traffic, also cannot turn right, due to the red arrow. i think they meant to use this when one can't quite see oncoming traffic in the distance (view is blocked for some reason), but not always the case.

Jman888 Moderator January 12, 2015 Share January 12, 2015 There are many such junctions but most of the time we dun think is logical, they may have done some calculation on the traffic flow for different period. Honestly I duno they make sense or not cos I dun travel on those road 12 hours a day. Anyway if get stuck at those junctions you only waste another 2 minutes at most, so dun kill your brain cells and shoot your blood pressure over it. ↡ Advertisement 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
