Muhammad Faishal Ibrahim on profiles of speeding motorists in traffic accidents
Based on the data on speeding violations in 2024, males, Singapore citizens and those driving cars are disproportionately represented amongst speeding offenders. The Traffic Police (TP) does not track the data based on years of driving experience. As for age, nothing stands out. Minister of State for Home Affairs Muhammad Faishal Ibrahim shared these observations in reply to an MP’s questions in parliament on Wednesday (Mar 5). He added that TP does not track the reasons for speeding, but commonly cited excuses include the lack of awareness of the speed limit or of the speed at which the motorist was travelling and urgency to reach appointments. On drink driving, he also said that the government is reviewing the maximum allowable breath and blood alcohol concentration limits and will announce the details when ready.
