Actually I have seen TP stationed somewhere after the turn for a few times in Mar-Apr period to monitor the situation and noting down number plates (I supposed). Thereafter, the illegal turnings reduced significantly, but the problem came back again just a week or so after the TP stopped coming.

I was told that the TP came cause one of our residents wrote/call to TP a few times but I'm not sure if he is the only one doing reporting this problem to TP.

The situation is better now due to school holidays but I'm quite sure the illegal turning problem will come back once school reopens. I hope a long term solution can be work out to stop these irresponsible drivers from making illegal left-turn, such acts endanger the safety of the road users and also slow down significantly the flow of traffic for those drivers following the rules.

One way is to take pictures of those who make illegal left turn urself & sent them to TP.

Do you think the TP will pay per photo if anyone can station there taking pictures ?

If so, I will take leave on Monday and snap these drivers ! Cashing in on Monday blues !

I'll take video ... what's the rate for video
