Cyclists pay no heed to traffic and blocks entire lane at West Coast Highway

TL;DR - Cyclists blocked the entire lane at West Coast highway and failed to conform to red light. 

Agree to disagree: Cyclists are the true king of the road. 

Watch this 57-second video to see what I mean. 

What happened? 

The peloton were seen taking up the lane at West Coast highway and failed to conform to traffic regulations by beating the red light. 

This seems to be a norm amongst cyclists in Singapore - to gather in large groups and cycle on the roads. 

Which shouldn’t be the case! 

Stricter fines have been imposed to counter such road pests. Not sure if its sufficient enough to prevent all these self-entitled two-wheelers though.

Takeaway

Our paths and roads are shared spaces. We should consider the safety of our fellow travelers, no matter whether we drive, walk, cycle or ride active mobility devices.

Back to square one yet again for the Red Devils who, despite being one of the most successful clubs in England and biggest clubs in the world, have not won a league title since Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement in 2013.

    Hard Enduro: The ultimate motorsport?

    I enjoy motorsports of all kinds - four wheels good, two wheels better. And while watching them on TV (okay let's be honest Youtube, who even watches TV nowadays) is fun, getting to partake in anything even remotely resembling it, even in a highly truncated, totally superficial manner, is even more exciting.  Earlier this year, I did a short 2.5 day off-road riding 'tour', and it was easily the hardest, most physically demanding 2.5 days I've ever spent on a motorbike. It really gives you a
