Last week, the Ministry of Transport said fines for errant cyclists will be raised from $75 to $150 from next year for offences such as cycling on expressways, not stopping at red lights or riding abreast of another on single-lane roads.

LTA said it has put up no-entry signs for bicycles at more than 50 entry points to expressways

......

Dos:
- Obey traffic signals like red lights

- Head in the same direction as the flow of traffic

- Wear a helmet

- Ride as close to the left as practicable, and allow road users to overtake you safely. Keep a straight course.

- Cycle in a single file on single lane roads and during bus lane operational hours

- Keep a safe distance behind moving vehicles

- Plan ahead and pick the safest route, and keep out of heavy traffic as much as possible

- Signal early

- Keep to a maximum length of five bicycles, which means a maximum of five cyclists in a single file or 10 cyclists when riding abreast

Don'ts:
- Ride on expressways or in road tunnels

- Use your mobile phone while cycling

- Weave through traffic and make sudden swerves

- Hold on to the back or side of motor vehicles

- Squeeze between the kerb and a bus that has stopped at a bus stop, or a turning vehicle and a kerb
