More unsafe driving on S’pore roads, says Shanmugam

SINGAPORE: Law and Foreign Affairs Minister K Shanmugam said he has noticed more unsafe driving on Singapore roads.

Writing on his Facebook page, Mr Shanmugam commented on his experience on the roads on Monday.

He cited two incidents, where drivers almost caused accidents because they did not indicate before switching lanes.

Mr Shanmugam also cited one incident where his wife, who was driving, indicated to switch lanes but a van deliberately moved much faster to prevent them from pulling into the lane.
