LTA. Are you there awake or asleep?

- Cycling in an opposite direction, and worse still, with no lights
- Cycling and using handphone at the same time, not being able to pay attention to the road situation
- Cycling with absolutely no lights at all, even at night
- Cycling in the middle of the lane (ok, as a fellow cyclist, I admit that I've seen several other local folks doing the same thing. Guys, pls be considerate! Dun be bad ambassadors!)
- Cycling on walkways and ringing that darn bell so furiously as if they own the path
- Ditto as above, except that they also race past walkway users recklessly
With all these dangers above, I can't LTA isn't even sitting up straight in their ivory towers and reviewing this quickly and effectively. If the issue of workers riding on lorries takes 3 month for full implementation, I imagine something of a lesser concern to LTA will never be duly addressed.
Oh wait.... are these also the idiots who allow construction work to be conducted during peak hours and cause massive jams? I think that's why they thot ERP gantries were needed to curb the jams! Ha!
And why no word from TP? Too busy with your camera shots at buslanes?

Won't be surprised if this is part of the FT policy. Just learned from onlinecitizen.com that PR siblings below age 35are allowed to buy resale HDB flats. Singaporean siblings below age 35 cannot. No wonder the HDB resale market is booming.

Open the door, get new guys in. No sweat to anyone.
But when locals get killed, just too bad. One down, one too many.
