Darryn Turbocharged April 14, 2011 Share April 14, 2011 If you know a way "around" a queue that lets you cut it without jumpiing the queue is it ethical to use it? For example, driving CTE towards city, if traffic is at a standstill, can take AMK ave 3 exit, go straight at traffic lights and then rejoin the other end. Or maybe there is a way to "go around the block" cutting out 90% of the jam, and then rejoining later...is this ok? And I am talking real jams, not just traffic slowdown, and you are leaving the cue, and rejoining in front of where you would otherwise have been... is it ok? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its okay if you have the 'skill' to rejoin back the queue.. just dont expect others to give way to you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerwoods Turbocharged April 14, 2011 Share April 14, 2011 I use Road shoulder and rejoin the front of the road is this considered Queue Cutting ?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahleon Neutral Newbie April 14, 2011 Share April 14, 2011 Driving on CTE towards city exit at AMK ave 3, the road is filter left or turn right into amk ave 3...not suppose to go straight. If go straight..there is a chance of getting into accident with cars from Hougang towards AMK ave 3 entering CTE at AMK ave 3 entrance. Usually cars entering will only wait for the opposite side wanting to enter CTE...they might not check for illegally going straight cars. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiphiphoray 6th Gear April 14, 2011 Share April 14, 2011 Of course its acceptable. The thing is whenever i cut Q, there will be a more daring idiot cutting in further in front. So what the heck.......monkey see monkey do lor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok then...take my example as being Punggol road exit of TPE...there can stop at the traffic lights at the top, and then go straight through and down the slip road the other side.

Darryn Turbocharged April 14, 2011 Author Share April 14, 2011 I think its okay if you have the 'skill' to rejoin back the queue.. just dont expect others to give way to you yeah, but I'm not talking cases where you need skill or daring to let you rejoin - I am talking cases where you know of some loophole that lets you avoid the queue - kinda like the bus bays on the AYE towards city around Clementi area - ccan legally takke them and avoid queue - you just risk getting stuck behind bus. Or another one - coming back from JB. If JB customs is backed up, continue on over the viaduct, then u-turn back from the other side you "skip" the queue as you get a traffic light that lets you rejoin all the way at the front.

Darryn Turbocharged April 14, 2011 Author Share April 14, 2011 That's not a loophole... Then what is it? Instead joining queue and waiting my turn, I took a side street that let me "jump" and get in ahead of my turn. Last time before the customs moved there was a better way - there was a way that you could go in from behind city square, turn here, turn there, then join the queue all the way at the front near to the eating house there - we did it many times and saved more than 30 min each time.... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
