Subject: Singapore : LTA Fine $130 For Dropping Off At Or Near Bus Stop!
Be very careful where you drive and where you wish to stop to drop a friend
or relative off.
LTA has contracted six traffic wardens from a private company at $34,000 a
year to take down the licence plate number, make and colour
of vehicles that intrude into bus lanes at peak hours. (They are incognito
with camera in hands... So don't expect to see a TP, etc)
Note you can get fined $130 for dropping someone off at or near the bus
stop.
LTA has intensified their operations at the following areas :-
1) Eunos Link
2) Hougang Ave 3
3) Jurong Town Hall Road
4) Lorong Chuan
5) Orchard Road
6) Upper Serangoon Road
7) Upper Thomson Road
8) Yishun Ave 2
Additional spots where speed traps were seen :-
1) PIE towards Airport near Toa Payoh exit, tripod mounted speed camera at
the pedestrain overhead bridge. 90km/h
2) PIE towards Jurong near Adam Road exit, tripod mounted speed camera over
at Adam Road flyover. 90km/h
3) Braddell Road after Bishan Junction towards CTE, tripod mounted speed
camera at the pedestrain overhead bridge. 60/kmh
4) Queensway towards Bukit Merah, tripod mounted speed camera under tree
before Ridout McDonalds. 60km/h
5) Spot along Upper Bukit Timah Road towards Woodlands Road, tripod mounted
speed camera under tree after a curve turn - 60km/h.
Fine imposed is $170 and 8 demerit points.

Yes, but the SBS transit inspector need to stop and park the bike to summon the certis Cisco motorbike so in turn the Certis Cisco motorbike can also summon the SBS Transit Inspector.
As they are summoning each other, the SembCorp wardens can summon both of them, and each party can summon one another.
As that is happening, Traffic Police stops to summon all of them. Slowly there is too many motorbikes parked in the Bus Bay, then the bus is unable to move and create a traffic jam, then traffic slows.
That's when LTA steps in and decided that the road needs an ERP to keep it smooth flowing.

Everywhere you go, there's a likelihood of a traffic police monitering your speed. There's ERP to restrict your movement so you cant go anywhere you like. There's lots of speed traps cameras and red light camera. There's no freedom in Singapore.
what's wrong with monitoring speed. this isn't like usa or australia. where the roads are long and straight for hours.
every 100m got a junction, u speed speed, then cause accident. who wants to be responsible for a life?
i think it's a good rule.
