The act was captured on video by another Singaporean driver, who posted screengrabs on Facebook that same afternoon. Facebook page SG Road Vigilante also carried the post, which went viral.

Beanoyip Turbocharged July 8, 2019 Share July 8, 2019 (edited) https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/remove-discretionary-right-turns-road-traffic-act-11702060?cid=fbcna ABOUT bloody time! Unfortunately it took a few lives for them to wake up SINGAPORE: Members of Parliament (MPs) on Monday (Jul 8) urged authorities to speed up the removal of discretionary right turns at all junctions, arguing that they have led to numerous fatal accidents and are “fundamentally problematic”. This comes as Parliament passed amendments to the Road Traffic Act, which introduced harsher penalties for dangerous and careless driving as well as driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. For dangerous driving causing death, first-time offenders will be jailed at least two years while repeat offenders will be jailed at least four years. For driving under the influence, offenders face double the current penalties, including a lifetime ban for repeat offenders. With the amendments, first-time offenders face up to a year in jail, or a fine ranging from S$2,000 to S$10,000 and they can be disqualified from driving for at least two years. For the second offence, they face up to two years in jail and a fine of between S$5,000 and S$20,000, as well as a ban from driving for at least five years. While MPs welcomed the changes on Monday, they pressed for a speedier and more thorough intervention on discretionary right turns, which allow drivers to turn right on green when they deem it to be safe. Last April, two people were killed after vehicle collisions at the intersections of Commonwealth Avenue West and Clementi Road, as well as Upper Bukit Timah Road and Jalan Anak Bukit. In both cases, one of the vehicles in either accident made a discretionary right turn. Following that, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) said it would remove discretionary right turns at most traffic junctions by 2023, meaning motorists can only turn right on a green arrow. But Nominated MP Lim Sun Sun urged the LTA to shorten this timeline to prevent more accidents and fatalities, as she detailed her own experience getting hit by a bus that was making a discretionary right turn. Last month, she was crossing the junction of Upper Changi Road East and Somapah Road with the green man on when a “big, lumbering double decker” collided into her. She hit her head against the road and landed on her back. When she raised the incident to colleagues and students, many of them immediately raised the issue of discretionary right turns and the “near misses” they witnessed at the same junction. “Discretionary right turn junctions are fundamentally problematic,” Ms Lim said. “Drivers wait anxiously in the right turn box and make a dash for it when they note the absence of oncoming traffic, overlooking the fact that there could also be pedestrians crossing at the same time.” Edited July 8, 2019 by Beanoyip 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knn, ‘unemployed’ still want drive BMW. Go take public transport like me liao... this chap recalcitrant lah Aug 3, 2010 Ex-MOM investigator jailed By Elena Chong A FORMER senior investigation officer of the Ministry of Manpower was jailed for six months and ordered to pay a penalty of $1,000 on Tuesday for corruption. Gordon Tan Hock Lye, 34, then attached to MOM's Foreign Manpower Management Division, had pleaded guilty to getting a $1,000 bribe from Chinese national Wu Hui Xia, 42, to close the matter of her arrest by the police on Dec 31, 2005 and not prosecute her. The incident took place at Hua Ji coffeeshop along Joo Chiat Road on Jan 23, 2006. The court heard that Ms Wu, who came to Singapore in May 2005, was arrested twice by the authorities for working illegally as a masseuse. When Tan, who came to know her in end-August (05), found out about her arrest in early 2006, he warned her that she would be charged. He also offered to help her close the case for $3,000. A few days later, they met at Hua Ji coffeeshop where Tan again said he would help her close the matter of her arrest on Dec 31, 2005, and warned her of the consequences if she did not agree. He demanded $3,000 from her and gave her a deadline to cough out the money. On Jan 22, 2006 - a day before the deadline - Ms Wu reported him to the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau. Tan was arrested at the coffeeshop the next day after the money was handed over to him. He could have been fined up to $100,000 and/or jailed for up to five years. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mkl22 Twincharged July 8, 2019 Share July 8, 2019 Totally deserved to be arrested . The fact the the accident happened just after dawn , likelyhood is that he waited until all the road blocks has ended before driving back home . Seasoned drink drivers always does this . Should be like China. Mandatory 1mth jail once blood test shows over the limit. Be like a traffic court system. Plead guilty or not.
