Interestingly in Singapore; two guys who conducted bicycle races without permit, because they wanted to make the race affordable to youths and engage them into to the healthy and physically demanding sport of fixed gear riding, evolving to a community by itself recognized by the Cycling federation, gets 7 Days jail and fined for $5000/- , after forking out thousands in legal fees.
It was cited that these bicycles were going at 40-45km / hr as some points.
Meanwhile another guy, also without permit, decides to race his mum's Mercedes along Seletar Dam, could easily have KILLED CYCLISTS like myself who cycle there, at speed of 179km/hr against an A4 , amidst rows of spectators lining the sides and completely endangering all their lives,
Was given a chance of a PROBATION , asked to undertake not to drive for 12 months ( doesn't even get his license revoked ! ) and perform 150hrs community service ! No fine either. Just sign a bond of good behavior for $5k ( means if he did not get into trouble, it's free ! ) .
But again, Donald Trump might be President of USA.
Crazy world isn't it.
HolyCrit .
