A friend's 12 yrs old daughter was knocked down by a cyclist in-front of Waterway Point, Punggol yesterday. She is currently still unconscious in ICU. Decided to share to fellow cyclist, please please slow down when approaching crowds and people(especially near bus-stops and walk ways fill with old folks and children). No matter who's at fault, we as cyclist should really slow down since we are the one creating the impact. I have seen too many cyclist, sound bell and expect people to give way, while riding fast. It's true on certain path we have the "right" of way, and some pedestrian are just simply irresponsible and self-entitled, (same goes to some of us) still, I really do not think we want anyone hurt since we have control of a "vehicle". So, lets be gracious cyclist and enjoy a safe trip for ourselves and others. Thanks!
