SG: More caught for not buckling their kids
More motorists are getting pulled over for not properly strapping their kids in the car. Their negligence may put the children at a greater risk of injury or death from an accident or sudden stop. In the first half of 2014, an average of 114 child restraint offences were recorded monthly, a 10% jump from the same period in 2013. Also, there was a 22% increase in the number of offenders in 2013 as compared to 2012. Motorists are risking not only their kids’ safety by not buckling up properly, they may get fined as well. Offenders risk a $1,000 fine and/or three months in jail. Legally, passengers under 1.35m in height have to be strapped in with an appropriate child restraint or use a booster seat or an adjustable seat belt. Pictures used for illustration purposes only.

SG: Less caught parking illegally after CCTV installation
LTA installed CCTVs in 30 locations in 2014 to deter motorists from parking illegally. These cameras, which operate 24 hours daily, help to enforce parking rules along roads that suffer from obstruction as a result of indiscriminately parked vehicles.
Since the install, less are indiscriminately parking their vehicles, and as a result, there has been a significant improvement in traffic conditions at these locations. The scheme will be expanded to cover an additional 40 locations in Q1 of 2015.
To alert motorists to the presence of enforcement cameras, CCTV monitoring zones are clearly demarcated by parking restriction lines and signs. Available lamp posts and sign posts within the zones are also painted with a vertical strip in bright orange colour.Pictures used for illustration purposes only.

SG: All cars in Category A comply with regulations
The LTA has put cars in Category A under stringent tests to ensure none of them exceed the power output as declared by their respective manufacturers. The regulation, which was put in place last November, was introduced to weed out luxury cars from Cat A COE. Each new model will be put through four dynamometer tests to ensure that they comply with the 130 bhp cap. This is the very reason why the approval process for new cars takes almost two to four months now, as compared to two to four weeks before the new ruling.Pictures used for illustration purposes only.
