From TNP 12/18 edition - Ang Mo Kio Man Tells Cops : You Can't Park Here

 

Summary : Mr Ong and his wife, Marilyn found a police car blocking a narrow access lane to a rain shelter decided to act against the policemen. Mr Ong began taking photos of the patrol car while the wife went about to track the policemen. The couple were returning to their residence in Palm View, AMK.

 

The wife found the policemen talking to a man in a coffeeshop. She proceed to tell the policemen that their patrol car was blocking the lane. The 3 then walked back to the patrol car when the policemen found Mr Ong taking pictures of the police car - 'in case anything goes wrong'.

 

That was when the argument ensued. The policemen were explaining that they were attending a case - that of a sleeping drunkard. The policemen then further explained that there was a exception for authorised vehicles to park there.

 

It was at this point of time that Mr Ong was cited for parking -behind the police car - in a no-parking zone.

 

Apparently Mr Ong did not read the sign - No Parking, Except Police, Ambulance and Authorised Vehicles. Mr Ong claimed 'not aware of the sign' because they were too small to read. Mr Ong parked there because he felt it would be too hazardous to back out because of the heavy rain and reduced visibility.

 

The summon reads a fine of $120 and 3-point demerit. There was another vehicles besides Mr Ong's parked illegally there. The police noted that as well. BlK 232 & 233 Covered Car Porch, Plam View Estate, Ang Mo Kio.

citizen journalism is fine but there MUST be a limit to dumbfarks finding fault with police, firemen and ambulance folks carrying out their thankless jobs. in fact i'd even support a law for this.

Singaporeans are really too rich and KayKiang, "Fully fed, got nothing to crap" mentality.

 

Really stupid to get fined $120 this way!
