Red Light, Red Arrow...STOP!

IcedLemon SG

is it so difficult to understand wat a red arrow represent? why so many drivers out there like to proceed n wait in the junction box while the red arrow is on?

hisoka SG

because the green light normally means that you can go wherever you like i guess.

ShutterBug SG

Yes, some (but not many) tend to mis-read the Red Arrow at junctions. Because I believe they read the arrow, NOT the COLOR red - which means STOP.

Red Arrow = Turning Please Stop / Do Not Turn Yet

So, pay attention to color codes as well. Not just arrows or any directional symbols.

Wouldn't his car get rammed by on coming cars if he wait in the junction box?

No it is not. Just that some people like to test the system only.

Many motorist are impatient to wait. It's like, since there's no incoming car, why not I simply turn and go?

Test the system only la. I also does that when it's late at night. Laughing

i tink singaporean should be smart enough to realise tat since red = stop, then red arrow = stop turning… maybe some drivers are color-blinded so they tot it means can turn… well, maybe LTA should replace these red arrows to a line across the arrow, which means no turning… just like no parking.

to sexf:
waiting inside the junction box will not get u ram by oncoming traffic provided u stay inside the turning pocket, hv u got a QDL?

i heard tat color blind ppl see red to green, whereas green become red.

SexFrenzy SG
