Almost 200 errant motorists were detected by the Land Transport Authority and Singapore Police Force in a joint operation island-wide to conduct spot checks.
Over the course of the 16-hour operation, the agencies found vehicles “which may have undergone illegal exhaust modifications, installed non-compliant window tinting and license plates,” said LTA in a Facebook post on May 21.There were also several vehicles overloaded. “Besides being unsafe, such practices also accelerate the wear and tear of our road infrastructure,” LTA noted.
“LTA and SPF, please conduct enforcement on a monthly basis. Once a month will be just fine. The monies earned from these fines can be used to improve our roads’ safety,”“Please do have this combined enforcement as often as it should. Too many self-entitled road users out there,”Meanwhile, others commented with suggestions on errant motorists, such as motorcycles with small plates or heavy vehicles.said Facebook user Anton Chia.
“Overloading and spilling rocks onto roads every time they make their high-speed corner turns and braking. Not to forget massive road hogging on lanes 1 and 2.”“To LTA: Please explain why “fleets owners” were not taken to task when their fleet was breaking rules and due to the size of the trucks, which pose an extra danger to other road users. I applaud your action in taking action but hope more can be done.
