Ody_2004 Turbocharged December 29, 2016 Share December 29, 2016 Bus lane work only if all people give way to each other.. with so little distance to turn left most times it choked more than it help. Often is the poor bus route that add on to this.. trying to get more bang for the buck they are force to make right turn within a short distance. They basically block diagonally the road taking up 3 lanes at times. And quite often u see bus coming up the second lane.. they come to car lane can but we go to their lane we at fault.. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westkid 2nd Gear December 29, 2016 Share December 29, 2016 Those who designed the Bus Lane must be don't have Licence,only leave 3 Meters..with "Dotted Bus Lane"....Furthermore i noticed many Red Line of the Whole Day Bus Lane are fading,one of the at Victoria Street... The designers don't do field survey,only conceptual ideas,and no review.Traffic light timing another fartup thing. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuPerBoRed Twincharged December 30, 2016 Share December 30, 2016 If you have engaged a lawyer, things would have been different if your appeal letter comes with their letter head. I am sure LTA waives such fines in hundreds every month. Yours is just one of those that didn't meet their profile. The bus lane helps but it is not effective in our road situation. A good example is along North Bridge Road. Leaving 2 lanes for peak hours and one of the lanes to turn right Try to turn left without going into the bus lane. engage a lawyer to write a waiver for $150? really? I wrote in once.. after i already paid the fine even.. explained its not a route i usually take.. not used to the road.. entered while the line was dotted and got blocked off.. i got the waiver.. i am a normal working singaporean ley.. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully agreed on this. Those designers and engineer at LTA always based on what they thought suitable and set those traffic lights timing and road design, and dont based on actual usage/situation de.

Bus lanes are drawn by idiots who just follow strict rules without using brain, without looking at that junction or how cars are able to turn left. So you have to follow their rules and cut into that lane sharply. Don't care about blocking bus or whatsoever bcuz you are just following rules. Otherwise, you would be zigzagging to avoid bus lane, left, right, left right. But who cares, as long as you are following their rules ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atrecord Supersonic December 30, 2016 Share December 30, 2016 Countless instances of badly designed bus lanes. Should get LTA boss to drive on those roads during peak hours, and sit besides him see him demo how to manoeuvre his way out left without encroaching on bus lane. Hopefully next day he will guai guai go and tell his people better wake up and redraw properly. Or better still, just get his wife to drive instead. Maybe that same night he will call his people start work liao... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no issue with buses cutting out of the bus lane because they have to make a right turn a few hundred metres away. I do have something of an issue with buses cutting out of the bus lane simply because they don't want to wait for the bus in front of them to finish taking on/offloading passengers.
