"Besides the late fee, the owner of a vehicle is also liable to be prosecuted for the offence of keeping or using the vehicle without a valid road tax under Section 15 of the Road Traffic Act. The offence carries a maximum fine of $2,000 upon conviction in court." (http://www.onemotoring.com.sg/publish/onemotoring/en/lta_information_guidelines/maintain_vehicle/road_tax/timely_renewal_of.html)

 

but according to forum, only get small fine if less than 1 month (http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-175157.html)
