'Blatant disregard of rules': Video of cyclists ignoring red traffic light at West Coast Highway sparks criticismGoing cycling with friends is supposed to be a harmless and fun activity.
Facebook group SG Road Vigilante posted a video on Thursday showing a group of roughly 30 cyclists that had apparently failed to conform to multiple guidelines for cycling on the road. Dashcam footage from a vehicle pausing at a red light showed a pedestrian crossing the road alone. There did not seem to be heavy traffic at the time.They were then followed by a contingent of cyclists, some braking and navigating their way around the pedestrian.Prior to this, a number of cyclists were spotted travelling down the second lane, tailgating a lorry in the process."Blatant disregard of rules. Never seen so many beating a red light at once.
Another noted that seeing large groups of cyclists on the road is a relatively common sight on Saturday mornings at Pasir Ris.According to the Land Transport Authority's rules and guidelines for safe cycling on roads, road safety is a shared responsibility.
