Hooligan bikers stop traffic, and turn Geylang Bazaar into their private race track
This group of about 50 bikers brought traffic to a standstill near Geylang Bazaar, behaving as if they owned the road, says STOMPer Vassili.
Here's what the STOMPer wrote in an email today (Sept 6):
"I saw this crazy bunch of more than 50 bikers at the Geylang Bazaar yesterday (Sept 5), revving their engines loudly at the traffic junction, as if they owned the road.
"They were behaving like monkeys, shouting at one another as they stopped at the red light.
"Two of them, wearing some kind of luminous vest, stopped in front of the adjoining road, acting like road marshalls, stopping a long line of cars to let his biker buddies pass.
"One of them even got off his bike and stood like some kind of hero in front of the yellow box, as the lights turned green.
"I don't know where these attention-seekers were from, but they really were a nuisance and a danger to themselves and other motorists.
"If there is a law against illegal assemblies in public areas, I think there should be a law against such assemblies of bikers on roads as well."
