Not offence to use phones while crossing roads, pedestrians should avoid it for own safety: Police

Source: The Straits Times

Police have clarified on Dec 17 Facebook posting that it is not an offence for pedestrians to use mobile phones while crossing the road, after messages circulated online had falsely claimed that such act may be fined up to $1,000.

However, police advise pedestrians to avoid using such devices when crossing the road, as such usage would distract them from the road conditions and the movement of vehicles around them. Pedestrians should exercise caution at all times, and look after their personal safety and of other road users.
