]]> Comment on Safe cycling in Singapore roads by Anthony Ang http://safecycling.org/2009/03/safe-cycling-in-singapore-roads/comment-page-1/#comment-104 Anthony Ang Mon, 25 Jan 2010 01:24:43 +0000 http://safecycling.org/?p=13#comment-104 Thank you for the life-saving advices. I am a beginner and started cyling consistently over the last 5 months. I had a few bad experiences with cab drivers who ignore cyclists' safety especially when they spot waving passenger(s) on the road and have no hesitation to pull over abruptly. Bus and truck drivers are equally dangerous when they tend to come too close to cyclists on roads. I urge the authority (LTA/Sports Ministry/URA/Police) to create more awareness and co-existence of road users to motorists. There are increasingly more bike enthusiasts like me who prefer to exercise over the weekend than hanging around in the pubs. Hence the local authorities should help promote fitness and healthy living through all sorts of exercises including cycling. Although a separate lane for cyclists is not feasible in Singapore, at least more traffic signs and campaigns can help reduce the frequency of fatal road bike accidents. Having said that, cyclists must also do their part in exercising safe riding and observance/compliance of traffic regulations including wearing proper gears and having their bicyles checked (like ROV) regularly.

What you guys are doing is great-- Would you have any defensive cycling courses cyclists could sign up for? I'm new to cycling as way of getting around in Singapore, and I'll probably stick to the pavements (not ready for roads yet). It'd be great to have a course for newbies like myself to get some techniques with dealing with pedestrians and other motorists. (: Keep up the good work! :D Hello!
