Really happy with such news...annoying illegal car racers and always so noisy and nuisance on the roads.

One of my friends lives on the 22nd floor, she hears the cars revving their engines even at 2-3am!

We get it here at the intersection of AMK Ave 3 and Yio Chu Kang Road often in the wee hours of the morning as well.

I remember motorbike races around the padang and the illegal betting on the side. The old GSX750s were the king.
I not lawyer/teacher/CPA.
You've been arrested? Law Society of Singapore can provide referrals.
You want an International School job? School website or http://www.ISS.edu
Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!

Hopefully with the new regulations, there'll be less of them...
