Govt should not concede to demands of cyclists for own lane!

70 have died in past few ys this translate. to 1.5 per month because of this cyclists. demand govt spend money to build cycling. lanes. this. is an absurd demand. many. of the. cyclists. died on. the open road when they cycled for recreation ...it is their choice they. dont. use park connectors and cycle. at our parks like East Coast
...they choose. to endanger themselves.

Every month tens if not hundreds of singaporeans find they have late stage terminal cancer because they cannot afford screening checkups to detect the cancer early and the govt does not spend money to help them yet the cycling.ommunity want tax players to foot the bill for their choice of taking more risk on open roads...this is absurd.

The govt has already built 300km of park connectors for cyclists yet these cyclist choose to risk cycling on the open road. Other vehicles like cars and motorcycles have to pay ERP, road tax and COEs to go on the road. It is blatantly unfair to set aside special lanes on our roads in land scarce Singapore to meet the demands of these cyclists who contribute nothing to the costs.
