    During weekend/public holiday super peak hour, should alight bus at train checkpoint and walk into main complex of Woodlands checkpoint. At least you skip the traffic chaos in Woodlands Crossing (BKE)

    sharing taxi from Bugis Station is easy and reasonable. on the way back, the taxi was stopped by immigrant officer and all passengers needed to get off for questioning.

    Prepare some finger foods to munch & some water to sip when you crossover as traffic jam is unpredictable... while waiting for your turn.

    Dalam banyak2 bas, bas Cw2 Quenstreet lah yang paling sikit driver, so if you guys duty on morning shift must come earlier, possible last bas morning on by 10 am. Onwards 10 will be late. Goodluck.

    Try avoiding crossing the border before 10am on weekdays, especially when going into SG. It's jam packed. Also be careful when everyone gets off work, another traffic jam.

    For Singaporeans, beat the human jam by using you biometric passport at the automated clearance. You will need to have your thumbprint ready

    Lorry Lane for Cars usually opens from 630pm-Late. And also got to take into consideration if the normal queues are long.

    If u have cigs, liquor, tobacco n petrol with u, pls declare to singapore customs at the red channel. Read signboard abt the regulations before entering! Penalty for not doing so is pretty hefty!

    If you are alone, tell them as such when handing over your passport. The officer will appreciate that very much.

    SG/PR with biometric passport? Don't need to queue @ counter with the officer- use the express machine lanes to the left of both arrivals n departure; it's so much faster.

    Be considerate. Everyone wants to get this over with, not just u. Dun be afraid to stand on bus. Worth it most of the time than to wait twice the time for another one.

    Left green lane is almost always faster, cause the right lane usually can only go to the rightmost examination point. ^^ keep left whilst overtaking.
