Cyclist who broke so many traffic rules in Tampines defends himself: 'I cycle at 40kmh'
A cyclist who was previously caught on camera breaking multiple traffic rules in Tampines has responded to criticism with a defiant message.
In an earlier Stomp article, the cyclist was seen running red lights and weaving between vehicles, sparking concerns about road safety.
He was seen riding without a helmet as he ran not one, but two red lights and failed to keep to the left side of the road.
However, in a video posted on SGRV's Facebook page, he appears unapologetic, defending his actions in a series of statements.
"If you disrespect me, I'll disrespect you and I'll ask you to wake up," he declared.
He also justified his riding style, citing Singapore's many traffic lights and his speed.
"I cycle at 40kmh eh... you expect me to ride on the pavement and kill somebody ah?"
Despite acknowledging that Singapore is a country with 'rules and regulations', he insisted he was not the cause of traffic congestion and took issue with disapproving looks from others.
"Do not look at me and shake your head from 500m away, 'cos clearly you know I will scream at you," he added.
His comments have sparked further debate online, with some netizens criticising his reckless behaviour and calling for authorities to 'get him off the road'.
