Those who cut into other lanes and block the path of other vehicles “show little respect” for fellow road users, said AAS as it urged motorists to be gracious on the road.STAY ALERT “Being aware of other drivers' actions and blind spots is also important for staying safe in heavy traffic,” it added.They should always check their blind spots, avoid changing lanes at bends and should not overtake unless the road is clear, said the Singapore Police Force in its list of road safety tips.They should keep to their own lanes and avoid sudden braking by leaving sufficient space between vehicles, AAS said.

Before setting off, drivers can also plan their route by checking for congestion on roads and highways. The Land Transport Authority and ICA Singapore post traffic updates on their respective social media accounts.
