Inlinefour Twincharged August 13, 2018 Share August 13, 2018 IMHO escooter pmd bicycle etc should at least buy comprehensive insurance in order to protect all road users if something arises:) Hopefully this is made compulsory cos too many accidents happened and left unresolved After all the faults and blames always push to motorists even the eScooter rider not obeying the traffic rules Driving in SG is already so stressful and expensive and yet still have to bear unfair treatment The most common sight is they just dash out from nowhere and if you lucky to avoid them Unlucky face the unfair music So many heavily modified ones are ferrying 2 to 3 people...really dangerous Just my 2ml worth of petrol:) ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pegasi 4th Gear August 13, 2018 Share August 13, 2018 oh.. haha good good imo there is no need for TS to start thread just for this video. as drivers we do feel frustrated sometimes but we have to be gracious and careful especially when they have not broken any traffic rules.

inlinesix Hypersonic August 13, 2018 Share August 13, 2018 when the real tour de france cut from 1st lane to 3rd lane, first, the road is cordoned off no other road users second, there are safety cars behind to ensure other vehicles do not cut into the lanes of the cyclists third there are traffic ushers to wave flags to signal when our 'tour de france' wannabes cut from 1st lane to 3rd lane, first, they cause other vehicles to slow down second, there are no signal lights on their bikes to show their intention to change lanes third, there are no traffic ushers to wave flags to early-warning other road users btw you cannot compare other road users eg old lady walking across the road because the old lady do not have a choice but need to cross the road do these cyclist have a choice not to cycle in the day time or at busy roads? During OCBC cycle, roads are closed for competitive event. There is also road marshal to escort the last cyclist. I believe you are old enough to know that there is hand signal.

Neutrino Supercharged August 13, 2018 Share August 13, 2018 There’s safe cyclists out there and I would say most are. We know how vulnerable while we are on the road Please can all safe cyclists wear a bright pink safety helmet 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ody_2004 Turbocharged August 13, 2018 Share August 13, 2018 Please can all safe cyclists wear a bright pink safety helmetVisibility is a must. I don be a hero wearing black in the wee hours of morning. I wear white or bright colors. Blinkers and lights are very important too. I always have two for rear and one for front even in daylight. A small investment in good blinkers can save your life. I do not know how safe is pink helmet.. maybe i should get one in future. I had 3 cracked helmet from my crashes.. maybe a pink one helps Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitvip Supersonic August 13, 2018 Share August 13, 2018 (edited) wait till u bang into one of these 'tour de France' wannabe you will change your view entirely now people just waiting for first fatality case to take action remember the recent fatalities at the cross junctions Unfortunately the courts in Sg always have a clause to slap on motorists when accidents happen.!
