Pisces69 6th Gear April 8, 2014 Share April 8, 2014 what could work is if they segregate the incoming causeway lanes to SG and Foreign cars, just like the 80s.... they should run a trial on this... I dun remember ever had cway seperate lanes for Sg n Msian cars????? But that wil work only if Sg cars not many n Msia cars many. And more lanes for SG cars. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And more lanes for SG cars. There are usually more Singapore cars than Malaysian cars crossing the causeway (either way). Every 10 cars I see, 8 are SG plate. So no point separating.

TVT Supercharged April 9, 2014 Share April 9, 2014 1) Ya now I know why u so handsome then. 2) Er???????? OK I leave it to u then. But I dun "eat" "supper" at those houses leh. I guest can still park there for free? 1. 2. OK, will wait for Ron to organise. I dun remember ever had cway seperate lanes for Sg n Msian cars????? But that wil work only if Sg cars not many n Msia cars many. And more lanes for SG cars. I also don't remember got such separate lanes. There are usually more Singapore cars than Malaysian cars crossing the causeway (either way). Every 10 cars I see, 8 are SG plate. So no point separating. Half of those SG plates are actually Malaysians (SPR) going in/out to visit relatives or work (work in SG, live in JB type). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think to separate by passport type is more better. Just like those walk-thru immigration lanes.... However in a car, there are often a mixture of passport types, so that is difficult to implement as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jajoba123 3rd Gear April 9, 2014 Share April 9, 2014 I wil hv my car sent for a carwash when Im going out only n pple wil see. I dun wan ty see my car so dirty then say Im a dirty untidy guy. Hahaha.

Karoon Turbocharged April 9, 2014 Share April 9, 2014 (edited) I believe it will take long time, resources to make this happen as the whole realization of the great plan is fully dependant on both sides' great leaders..... if the currency gap is resolved, perhaps crossings would be halved. but then again it would make it more attractive for us to cross over there to do business. anyway i love looking at these classic pics. SG side JB side funny if our grandparents were probably in these pics, thinking "someday, my grandson will get stuck in this same effing jam to buy petrol" Edited April 9, 2014 by Karoon 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing! I think during that time both SG and MY are under the British rule. So there's no immigration or checkpoint. Therefore there should be no traffic jam during then, as well....

Therefore there should be no traffic jam during then, as well.... I still remember there was a time we n Msians used to cross th Cway without need a PP at all. We just cross over. That time I also dun hv PP at all. Then after some years we had a Restricted PP which only Sporeans n Msians had which was cheaper n can only b used to travel between Msia n Spore. Thanks for sharing! I think during that time both SG and MY are under the British rule. So there's no immigration or checkpoint. Therefore there should be no traffic jam during then, as well.... Even after ty implemented PP still no jams cos that time very few pple had cars. All go by bus or train. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janling3 6th Gear April 10, 2014 Share April 10, 2014 I have no clue how long the jam going to Singapore custom is going to last. Even during 1200hrs-1400hrs, it has been heavy jam for the last several weeks...sigh.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voodooman Supersonic April 10, 2014 Share April 10, 2014 Just have to get use to it ~ it will become a norm The new security measures (they don't do the cone-check-cone thingy anymore) put in place cannot explain the jams in the last few weeks. It is slower but not significant and the jam is not at the security check area, or at least not all the times, these days. Singapore and Malaysia school holidays are also over. Qing Ming can explain weekend jams but not weekdays. Higher traffic volume all of a sudden? RM/SGD rate did not move much in last few weeks leh.... Sibei strange.... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibei strange.... jams will dissappear when SGD 1 = RM 2.2 still, no amount of infrastructure can accommodate the traffic if every single vehicle were to use the same stretch of road at the same time.
