Dear Mr Lui,
Yes, I was one of those unfortunate caught in the massive jam for more than an hour from around 7 to 8 pm last night, 18 Apr 2012; jam that tailed back to Toa Payoh and beyond as the night wore on!
On top of this, the equally bad news that COE had breached the $90,000 mark! (refer " ... And with COEs hitting $100k, what is the alternative for those who cannot afford cars now? What is happening to this first world oasis?" , link

So, what are the options for the masses who need to travel around? Private transport is increasingly out of reach for the masses while public transport is just as bad if not worse with frequent breakdowns on MRT.
I just saw the news that there is another breakdown at Lakeside (4th in a row!) - see below.
