RU = Restricted Use

eg: Learner Driver cars at Singapore Safety Driving Centre (SSDC) have some RU plated cars. These cars are exempted from road tax, but can only be used within the centre's circuit; hence cutting down operating costs. These cars are not allowed to travel on public roads, as they are exempted from paying road tax.

RU vehicles can also be found within Sentosa and Pulau Ubin.

Some construction vehicles are indeed registered as a "RU" vehicles. They includes Concrete pumps, some normal mobile cranes (20tons to 70tons) and heavy duty mobile cranes (120Tons to 500 Tons), rough terrain cranes.

These vehicles, can only be driven on Singapore Public roads provided that there is a tow truck to sort of "tow" or guide it.
