# How about NOT cycling on the expressway so that you don't endanger yourself or others?

*Stomper Kenzo was concerned to see a cyclist riding on the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE) yesterday (Jan 28), at around 12.40pm. *

Stomper Kenzo was concerned to see a cyclist riding on the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE) yesterday (Jan 28), at around 12.40pm.

A video he sent in shows the man riding by the side of the road even though cycling is not allowed on expressways in Singapore.

According to a April 2015 report on The New Paper. those cycling on expressways may be charged under Section 279 of the Penal Code for driving in a rash manner which endangers human life or causes hurt or injury to any other person.

"Under Section 2 of the Road Traffic Act, a cyclist qualifies as a driver. So technically, they can be fined up to $5,000," said lawyer Raphael Louis.
