On the whole, the traffic situation in Singapore for 2004 remained good. We will continue to leverage on the three-pronged approach - enforcement, education and legislation. However, education can only work if people are receptive to the messages. There are still road users who have heard our messages but are not heeding the advice.

We urge the public to exercise self responsibility when using the roads. Motorists should give way to vulnerable groups of road users such as motorcyclists, pedestrians and the elderly. With the commitment of all road users, we can make our roads even safer.
