Skip to the second article for "road tax" in particular. This will give you some idea of where motorists are coming from. There are some good facts to have when dealing with an irate motorists, if you can remember them. Not sure how much this applies in Singapore, but I'm sure some of it will help.
It takes only 1 black sheep to wash away all good cycling manners the community is trying hard to promote here. Not sure if you get foreign workers, typically from developing countries such as India, Indonesia etc, who commutes to work, chose either not to observe the traffic rules on the road or use the pedestrian walk-ways to cycle

Perhaps its high time the local authorities here implement some kind of "law" on cycling, but as it is, we are already ruled by 1001 laws already
Just wondering, does your local cycling / transport community contribute anything towards inculcating a harmonious cyclist/motorist existence ?
