Off peak Car wo day licence

[Keynes]

Hi.

 

I saw a couple driving an off peak car near WL a few occasions during restricted hours (5 pm + on a weekday), and I'm just wondering shd I call LTA to report.

 

If I report, I feel like I'm kepoh and do something harmful to the couple (I know the penalty is very harsh).

 

If I don't report, I sort of feel that it is not fair to those normal plate cars owners, I mean they pay so high COE and rd tax.

 

If u were me, what wld u do? Comments, pls.

wahaha so jialat'!!!

 

if they need to drive on a weekday peak hours , is it they must buy a licence or someting

??

 

how much is it?

[Keynes]

If they need to drive the car during the restricted hours, they need to display a $20 day licence (very obvious one, very big rectangular paper, the size of an A4 paper, brightly coloured too) for that day. It can last for the whole day.

 

Yes, the couple drive a black Toyota Corolla Altis, from the number plate, I know it is less than 1 year old.

 

I think the fine is 6 years road tax for that cc car. If 1600 cc car, it is $950X 6 = $5,700!

[Guest mas17]

Bro, dun report lah. Its not worth the fuss and its not soo good reporting on other people unless they do a really serious crime. Spore soo small, one day sure they kena. If you play with fire, one day sure kena burn.

[desert]

these buggers veri daring...want to have it cheap and want to break the law...dun they know singapore has one of the best law and police force in the world...haiz...time for them to wake up their idea liao lor

[Guest FireSpitter]

I'd shut my mouth & eyes to deeds to do not involve stealing, robbing, assault or life threatening situations.

 

It's really the call of the couple. The penalty is harsh & I hope they do consider weighing the risks involved.

[bobo_rider]

let others do the calling...

[andy75]

Maybe to the couple 5plus sure no TP or Police to check on them

 

Tat why they daring..or maybe they just go out for awhile

or maybe short trip from blk A to blk C tat why they think don't want

to waste $20 for a just a short TRIP

 

Or maybe when u saw them they going to buy the coupon if they think

5plus going to 7pm is veri fast then

[akapovic1]

Tink I will keep quiet aso,no pt get them into deep sh*t..

As long as they are aware of the consequences

[andy75]

[akapovic1]

Ya lor,just once is enough to kill him.The fine can let him use for mths loh:bounce:

Sometime it depend on LUCK aslo

[necrosis]

My first car that i owned was a red plate, had it for 2yr 10mths and during that period i have never for once cheated on driving without a valid coupon. On many many occasions i often took a feeder bus to get to the town centres' post office to buy the coupons. The fines and jail term far outweight that for a mere 20dolls. My ex colleague was fined and jailed, eventually lose his job over this matter( In the civil service...) Is it worth it over a 20 bucks coupon? your family, career, a record, face splattered on the local papers etcc etc. Cant afford to drive, take public transport. Whether if it is fair that we pay so much for personal transport, well a thousand people will have a thousand different view. My view is, if car prices were like in other countries; on average 20k car buy you a fairly reasonable set of wheels, 2nd hand are even cheaper... Half the population of singapore could/ would afford cars then it will be traffic jam from the moment i start my car.Will this do harm to the economy/infra structure? I would say yes.

My 2cents worth. Cheers
