cyclists already don't have to dismount when riding across crossings, maybe got unspoken law that they don't have to stop also ? :s8:

i can't remember the last time I saw a cyclist stop at a zebra crossing. they tend to weave their way through the pedestrians instead

govt should not have allowed uncontrolled cycling on the roads if they have no way to bring them to justice
No. The issue is any tom dick harry can afford to buy a bicycle. Unlike driving, most people don't know how to be alert and check for blindspot (but now drivers also damn stupid but that's different matter).

For me, I can't drive but I have common sense to check my blindspots before making turns and I always make sure to be alert which means donch use moi smartphone lah

These are reckless and errant riders. They will avoid authority at all costs but like to bully road users.

of couse you should diam diam and step aside for the king of the road, even a double deck bus of 100 people have to slow down for a spandex cyclist at peak hour
Who you think you are?

sinkarpore is a 3rd world country when it comes to the width of our public walkways ... there is no argument against this ...

Every time when I hear cyclists behind me ringing their bells I will purposely walk slowly.

If the path is crowded, what do they expect?

That I jump onto the grass or the road and make way for them?

Wu ko leng meh?

need more enforcement on this
LTA always say got enforcement officer on the ground but cannot sense the presence of their enforcement officer especially outside of office hours and weekends. Must be doing enforcement at some coffeeshop instead of foot paths.
