交警的回答Here is what I got from Traffic Police officer:
===================================
Thank you for your email
The two crossings shown in your photos is not a pedestrian crossing. As such, you would need to give way to motor vehicles before your cross. However, if a vehicle appear while you are crossing halfway, the vehicle should give way to you.
I hope that the above clarifies. Thank you.
===================================
So, this means in Singapore, vehicles have right-of-way over pedestrians, unless pedestrian crossing. This is surprising, and very dangerous basic expectation. But it explains why cars trying to squeeze in on my way when I walk or when I run.
More vulnerable has right of way on the road is basic rule in other countries. Pedestrians has right over bicycles. Bicycles over cars... In Singapore, it is opposite. Car has right of way over pedestrian. Everybody, please be careful.
所以交警的回答是
“如果行人已经开始穿越马路了,车就得让人先过”?
我过那个小路口的时候,那辆车从远处开过来,根本没开左转向灯,所以我认为他是直行,没打算转弯。
