LTA fines 187 vehicles for parking offences, warns of traffic obstruction & safety risks
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) has taken action against 187 vehicles for illegal parking offences during a three-day enforcement operation in central Singapore.
In a Facebook post on Thursday (11 Dec), LTA said the operation, conducted last month, focused on vehicles parked illegally at various locations across the central region.
These offences included parking on double yellow lines, opposite continuous white lines, on double white lines, and stopping in no-stopping zones.
Waiting vehicles also considered parked
According to LTA, “parking” refers to stopping a vehicle for any purpose other than immediately picking up or dropping off passengers, goods, or luggage.
A waiting vehicle is therefore considered parked, even if the driver remains inside or the engine is still running.

LTA noted that such behaviour can obstruct traffic and pose safety risks to pedestrians and other road users. It urged motorists to follow parking rules to help keep roads safe for all.
