Safety Tips

Drinking and Driving
Alcohol impairs judgement. Drinking under the influence of alcohol is a serious offence and can result in accidents. If you must drink, don't drive.

Emergency Lane
Do not stop in the Emergency Lane provided along the expressway unless absolutely necessary. If you are experiencing a problem while driving that does not make it necessary to stop immediately, please drive on to the nearest toll plaza or rest & service area where it is safe to park your vehicle before attending to the problem. If you have to stop in the Emergency Lane, do turn on the hazard lights, get out of your vehicle and try to stay behind the guardrail.

Emergency Telephones
In case of an emergency or vehicle breakdown, walk to the nearest Emergency Telephone and call our traffic control centre for assistance. Emergency Telephones are placed every 2 km intervals along the expressway.

Handphones
If you must talk on your handphone, be sure to use a hands-free kit. Many accidents occur when drivers fail to keep both hands on the wheels in an emergency situation.

Motorcycle Shelter
Bikers travelling on the expressway are advised not to stop in the emergency lane under bridges during rainstorms. Look for the motorcycle shelters provided by Linkedua instead and take cover behind the safety of a guardrail.

Rest when tired and sleepy
One major cause of accidents on expressways is driver fatigue. When travelling on the expressway, make full use of the facilities provided in the form of rest & service areas and toll plazas. Park your vehicle and have quick nap or have some coffee. Never drive while you are sleepy.

PLUSRonda
This is a free-of-charge 24-hour service to assist motorists travelling on the Second Link. PlusRonda also attends to accidents and deals with general traffic management on the Expressway.

Speed Limit
Speeding is one major cause of accidents. Observe the speed limit at all times. 

Keep left 
Keep left unless you are overtaking.

Keep enough distance from the vehicle ahead
Failure to brake in time is a major cause of accidents. Always keep a safe distance between your vehicle and the one in front, especially during rain and in wet road conditions.

Accidents
If you meet with an accident;

  • stay calm.
  • avoid getting involved in an argument.
  • note details of the other party's vehicle (type, model, registration number, name of driver, IC no, etc)
  • Note the other party's insurance company.
  • Note the damages/injuries.
  • Call Linkedua's traffic control centre on 07-2788000 or use the emergency telephone by the expressway.
  • lodge a police report within 24 hours.
  • notify your insurer as soon as possible.
