1.5m gap between your car and the cyclist

[Arshavin]

Is this a law that we must follow?

Been seeing cars with this stickers

If die die maintain 1.5m gap, we need to drive at the next lane beside the lane which the cyclist r using.

I asking because every morning when I go work, there will be at least 2 cyclists along the roads that I using

Some cyclists actually just don't give a **** and cycle in the middle of the road.

[Arshavin]

Fully agree.

And they paid income tax only

We stil need to pay road tax and insurance fees on top of our income tax.

Haha not true that they pay no road tax bcos I know many drivers/riders are avid cyclists n some cycle to work.

In contrast, it could be that cyclist thinks he paid roadtax too that explains e behaviour.

Read an article on newspaper on this topic

Government reason for no bicycle lanes on road is spore has land constaints. What a joke. Just build the bicycle lane onto the green grass beside the road will do. Is it so Diffcult.

just saw those stickers, they were given out by Caltex. cyclists must also observe road/pavement laws too. long long time ago when cars are little on the roads, had cycle from jurong to changi , most of the cyclists those times all observed road laws strictly lor..

When I was still young, under the age of 18, I did cycle on the road as if I own the roads.

Haha. But those days, cars r very friendly and not so much foreign registered vehicles on neighbour roads.

Lucky that 1.5m gap is not by law or else I seriously don't know how to maintain the gap unless I switch the middle lane or next lane

I cycle on pavement and PCN.

actually they also bo bian. SPF say cannot use pavement (unless some parts - like tampines - specify can share pavement with pedestrians) so they LL have to use the roads with trucks, buses and cars. but the SPF donch spell out what they have to wear - so no laws on headgear, other safety equipment like hazard lights, clothing.

i wouldn't want to have to ride a bicycle on SG public roads that is for sure.

compassion is wealth, fellas.
