Wonder why they are not using the traditional traffic light plus more road humps to slow down traffic? This is obviously more expensive. 

But according to G, 

Since the scheme was first announced at the Committee of Supply debate in 2014, LTA has completed 15 Silver Zones. Statistics show that accident rates involving senior pedestrians at these zones have gone down by almost 75 per cent, LTA said.

I must agree with Vratenza that the cost and benefit may not have been analyzed carefully but it definitely slow traffic down. With all the SUVs around, road humps are not as effective as before.

I am however not surprised to know that our civil servants are followers. Every new policies that is put in place, they will research, study and consult experts all over the world and look at what other countries are doing.  My friend was involved as a consultant in one of these projects, they even flew in an expert to talk to the minister, I heard.  

Guess this may explain the PMD fiasco.  There is very little out there and no best practice to follow. Wahaha...

How to sympathies with Grab food people?

 

Their mentality very much like the HK SiGiNas..... I have to break the law because the govt force me to do so. 

I think all SiGiNas have the same genetic makeup no matter from which part of the world.
