27 motorists caught for traffic offences at Woodlands Checkpoint during Sep. 2026 school holidays
Their offences include crossing double white lines, making illegal right turns, and queue cutting.
During the September school holidays between September 4 and 13, the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) apprehended 27 motorists for traffic violations at Woodlands Checkpoint, according to a Sep. 18 news release.
The majority of the 27 offenders, 24 in particular, committed their infractions at the departure area. They were found to be crossing double white lines, executing illegal right turns, and queue cutting. Some motorists were positioned in a manner that posed a danger, obstruction, or undue inconvenience to others.
Subsequently, 16 of the apprehended motorists were directed to make a U-turn and rejoin the queue. Eight foreign-registered vehicles, which were subject to entry bans due to previous offenses, were also targeted.
ICA emphasized that they adopt a stringent approach towards motorists who disregard traffic laws or fail to obey officers' instructions at checkpoints, as such conduct endangers the safety of other road users.
