I called TP and the lady said new license 12 point, demerit 12 point, left 1 point.. I thought is 0 point? Need this license to earn a living so please advice me more.. Very worrying..

i think what she means is that if you get 1 more point then you're banned.

You better start driving more carefully

Good luck and if you're in any doubt go to the traffic police and ask. Remember to write down the name of the officer you speak to.

What worrying is the fact that if you need the license to earn a living, why didn't you learn how to drive better or why did you deliberately break the law? I've been driving legally for 46 years and haven't managed to do that. Might be a good idea to get you off the road.

I'm new driver and not very familiar with the road.. I did my best to conform with the rules but not sure y the letter state i did not conform with the red light signal. I will definitely be extra alert as not being pulled out of the road.

Ah the red light .

Rest of world amber means slow down and stop it's about to tur red.

Singapore means dig deep in your Kiasu sense and floor it. ANybody else just has to deal with you driving through lights way over the speed limit as you are clearly in a life threatening situation and a 1 min 30 second wait could be the difference between life and death.
It's all about mind set
