Crossing at T-junction is the most fxxking dangerous thing to do in Singapore.
Vehicles, coming out from side road and turning right into main road, always try to beat the pedestrians.
I myself have seen one accident and quite many near-misses (and had personally experienced 3 near-misses so far). :mad:

Wtf is the authority doing? :oIo:

don't always blame the drivers, as a driver and pedestrian, I see ppl dashing across either on foot or worse on bicycle from the far end despite the green man flashing with less than 5 seconds left.

might not be drivers fault. nowadays alot of idiots walk with ear phones plug in and deaf to car hornings or text while walking or looking at phone movies while crossing. even when you horn at them these idiots give you a dirty look as if they have right of way. they are so stupid that they do not understand that a bus weighs a few tons and cannot just stop immediately even when jam brake. worst are the dump trocks driven by ah tiongs and ah nehs. these are real bastards drivers. seen alot on CTE and PIE speeding. who is the bastard ministar who took away the motorcycles TP saying there is no need for them?

The accident and near-misses that I've seen and experienced so far, all happened when both the vehicle light and pedestrian light turned green at the same time, and right-turning vehicles sped through the pedestrians' path because there were no opposite incoming vehicles to take note.

It is probably the same for punggol accident.

Our pedestrian crossings at the traffic lights junctions are the most dangerous, I do not understand, why they allow the lights to change green for the vehicles to turn, as well as pedestrian to cross??. You get, impatient motorists, & impatient pedestrians & dumb stupid pedestrians, who are on their mobile phones & people on bicycles....there is an accident, waiting to happen, in all our pedestrian crossings at traffic light junction.

This is number one...world class traffic system...:mad:

Driver must be speeding.

I always have enough time to stop when someone is crossing in front of me.

Some assholes speedup when others are crossing the roads.

Bus is high up, cannot see if someone crosses right in front of you.

Remember SengKang East bus accident that killed a woman on right turn?
Only difference it is X-junction but with no opposite incoming vehicle.
The driver was speeding through in front of that woman.
