Here are the 10 most popular roadblock locations in Singapore during 2021. This listicle was created from data taken from the Motorist App.
Roadblocks are notorious for catching motorists off guard. In a bid to catch drink drivers and cars with illegal modifications, the traffic police will close off a section of the road to check cars individually for driving infringements.
For both the traffic police and driver, it's an arduous process, as it takes time to check both the driver and car. This often results in a traffic jam as you await your turn.
If you come across a roadblock, please bear in mind that avoiding it is a serious offence. In fact, offenders may be fined up to S$5,000 and/or jailed for up to 12 months.
You can, however, minimise your chances of running into one. Simply avoid driving through the following roads between 10pm to 6am, as the likelihood of roadblocks occurring at those timings are much higher.
