This article reported that Singapore is good for driving but is not good for safety.
Why? The answer is obvious. Our cars are driving too fast.
I observe that traffic in other cities are much slower. It is caused partly by congested roads. But only partly.
In other cities, they pay more attention to the needs of pedestrians. But this is not the case for Singapore. The planners pay more attention to the needs of motorists.
I observe the different quite clearly when I was in Seoul. I fell safe to cross the road. The vehicles move slowly. They give more time for pedetrians to cross the road at their pedestrian crossings.
