And please remember those hot spots for camera shooting sessions .TP said mobile , actually not really mobile , they got SOP , Standard Operation Procedure ....

Poolman SG

This green man also can help to judge whether the junction , or the traffic lights on the road u are travelling , will turn AMBER or not ?

Do glance around the junction when approaching .

If the green man is blinking , u are always safe to go through the junction .

The traffic lights will only after the green man turned into .

Go and read those traffic lights language .

U guys found any logic here ?

Poolman SG

I would encourage cabbies , slow down when approaching junctions when u see the red man ON .

Because u can anticipate that the lights will go amber very very soon .

It's the traffic lights timing , all default , standard default .

That is why Alexandra Road x Jalan Bt Merah , there is a sign to let us know , traffic lights timing changed , not the regular traffic lights timing .

Popowoo SG

Poolman SG

As for red lights camera , and pedestrain crossing , TP has been very particular about this issues , so drive slow when approaching junction la , no harm doing so .

Esp Day Shifts .

Night shfit wise ..... due to low light visibility , it's human we are more concern , so pls take care of all lives .

Money make less nevermind , don't reckless kill someone else at pedestrians crossing .

My taxi buddy was booked for not giving way to on coming pedestrains at a pedestraian crossing . knn not even by TP , by normal Street Patrol .

kinwashi SG

every picture tell a story...cabbies dun speed, knn eat what? sorry just an example.

KCTK SG

my own 3 arrow rule..reach 3rd arrow, release accelerator and shift foot to brake pedal. standby to brake. reach first arrow still green, accelerate. another gauge i use...pedestrian crossing..green man, no probs, blinking green man standby liao. slightly more ks than poolie's method. but better safe than sorry.

KCTK SG

every picture tell a story...cabbies dun speed, knn eat what? sorry just an example.

yah, i kena chain colision b4. lucky first car. bo wa eh dai-zi. my cab stationary at red light somemore. comfort crown last car, kooning, whacked into row of stationary cars. better to learn from the mistakes of others. i always keep a safe gap from the vehicle in front. stationary also. no tailgating, knn $2000 gone if kena. not worth the 0.5msec saved. but not say i want to say, many times kiss backside, i see taxis involved, sad story. my view..you good, cut into my lane, go ahead. i'll meet you at the next red light.

kinwashi SG

According to my kaki...from his gathering around.

Traffic Light, especially adam road junction sime road (SICC).

all the below are not there.

This green man also can help to judge whether the junction , or the traffic lights on the road u are travelling , will turn AMBER or not ?

Do glance around the junction when approaching .

If the green man is blinking , u are always safe to go through the junction .

The traffic lights will only after the green man turned into .

Go and read those traffic lights language .

U guys found any logic here ?

Try this, and chiong this adam road juntion sime road (SICC) when it's amber...than you know what i am taking about. all those mentioned, still you need to get $200 ready, and 12 demerits point for them to put into you record.

bro KTCK, my kaki is driving blue comfort, omo....Larry is his name.

both traffic lights, one is from cantonment road toward outram, the other is the above mention. Could it be the same as you mentioned.

kinwashi SG

Cabbies dun speed , knn eat what ?

Cabby would try to avoid accident , not bacause of $$$$ , all because we have a family ..... our family knew that driving a taxi is dangerous all time , so we must always go back in one piece , not in a box .

Me 110km/h , pax told me : " Uncle , no need so fast , i not in a rush ."

you should thank her, this lady that piece of word.

Cabbies dun speed , knn eat what ?

Me 110km/h , pax told me : " Uncle , no need so fast , i not in a rush ."

I said : " 小姐，今天我很客气了 110km/h 。"

Poolman SG

Anyway use your driving initiative ... Sime road SICC area , more walkers than cars .

If those drivers who chiong that red light , really deserve to get demerit points .

We all know Sime road Sicc the light will turn red when Sime Road got cars , idiot la they all .

When want to chiong , aiyo , see Sime road got cars or not , serve them right sia .

My example applies to most traffic junction .

Especially those pedestrain crossing lighting is control by sensor for road crossing .

Being a driver , if u don't observe those traffic rhythm , what to say ?

I am so sure kelvin never kena demerit ...if base on what his understanding on the road , go and learn something from him la .

Poolman SG

Sometimes i really don't understand , everyday , we can pass by all kinds of roads , with camera or without camera , we should know by fingertips .

If being a driver on the road , it's ridiculous if those fellas dun remember which traffic got camera ?

Ok if they know , then wtf they chiong for ?

Like what Kelvin did , slow down , standby brake on 2nd arrow , will die ?

if i am TP , i'll just laugh at those cabbies ....."Uncle , u everyday on the road , u dunno this road got 2 traffic red light camera ? "

wa piang , dun say i want to say them .

Serve them right la .

Dun worry about me , retribution on me ?

Anytime , not my habit to beat traffic lights .

I got a bad habit , i always slow down when approaching traffic lights , until that god damn 2nd Arrow , then u see me zoom away .

Fucking bad habit cannot change , for over 17 years of driving habit .

Must change , 2nd arrow also must standby brake like Kelvin . Will not kill me , right ?

Poolman SG

anyway , regarding this topic about chiong-ing traffic light , turning right when blinking arrow at a camera zone WILL NOT get snap .

Cos the censor only on vehicle going straight .

I stayed at cck , the turning right arow blink x3 and stop , u chiong no problem , i chiong many years liao ... bo tai chi .

Bukit Panjang Road , junction of Upper Bt Timah Road , that Camera ( heading Woodlands Road ) , active for going straight vehicles , be safe there .

CCK Road , heading to Bt Batok , junction of CCK Dr , be safe . Going straight camera active .

Victoria Street , towards City , turning left into Ophir Road , camera active , Raffles Hospital side .

Poolman SG

Be safe that's all .

kinwashi SG

knn if speeding can get caught easily , Komade this speed prawnster very fast kena guntong liao knn ....... cb PIE get caught by me @120km/h .

One said this..Quote: taxi driver(.TP speed camera don't work at night one !!!)

But go to the TP website, the below, said they are very efficient.

Quote:

All across Singapore Traffic Police are gearing up to get speedsters off our roads, employing some of the most advanced technology in the world. Traffic Police Department have mobilised 24-hour patrols, with new, mobile stealth laser cameras. These can be quickly positioned in any location, at any time. The new cameras can photograph two cars per second, and can capture not only your number plate, but your face as well.

Speeding

If killing yourself or someone else in a speeding accident sounds unlikely to you, then consider this. You can also kill your licence to drive.

Speeding is the number-one killer on our roads and Traffic Police is determined to arrest it. Before you speed, remember how hard you worked to get your licence. And how hard you will have to work to get it back.

TRAFFIC POLICE ACTIONS

So now your chances of being caught speeding are greater than ever. Unless your car can travel faster than a laser beam, Traffic Police suggest you slow down. When you speed, things happen in the blink of an eye. The faster you go, the longer the distance required for your vehicle to come to a halt, and the less time you have to react to potential danger. And, the faster you speed, the less control you have over your vehicle.

You might be surprised at just how much impact a speeding vehicle can cause. The greater your collision speed, the greater the severity of injury, or even chances of death.

With the implementation of the new Driver Improvement Points System (DIPs), Traffic Police is getting tougher on speedsters. It only takes one or two speeding offences to put licence in jeopardy. You worked hard for the right to drive. Don’t blow it by speeding.

Cabbies dun speed , knn eat what ?

still no answer, dun understand?

Poolman SG

U expect them to tell you the camera dun work at night at TP website ?

Aiyo ..... sad .

Poolman SG

No wonder some drivers complaint earnings low .

Left hand tight down by LTA , right hand tied down by Traffic Police , right leg tied down by Comfort , only left leg can manouvre .

I am happy TP does say that they are serious about this . Show that they are working .

Cos since 2006 i got caught , they disappeared together with the camera .

Yes , since 2006 , at night , i don't see them work knn .

Where the f*ck are they then ?

Poolman SG

But i do see them when Government giving away GST credits ....

And see them when Government paying bonuses in December .

And see them if Government announce tax cut .

Other than that , nay , they are busy with accidents on the road .

If i am a TP , i will only work if my boss told me so .

Same pay , why work so hard to catch speedster , and neglect more serious issues on the road ? And terrorism which is more serious to Singapore than speeding ?

If i am TP , i will educate drivers , not punished drivers .

Go and worry more , u will earn less than me .
