below ur thread. i reply Mr. Green not becos i use it. is becos i find tat by asking ppl openly bout something illegal. u r not very wise.

also remember tat.. on the road, u r so outstanding with ur OPC red plate. sure attract attention one.. u save money by choosing a OPC, and yet, did;t follow the time. if let ppl find out, most likely will go and report u one..

btw, i don own a OPC car. Very Happy

Do we need to display (as in put on the dashboard or stick somewhere on the windscreen the coupon) or we need to just pre-tear the day and show it to rov when he stops you?

mach10 SG

juz rem, your car plate so attention-grabbing. whoever see u buay song report u... u lan lan lor....

Imagine a normal plate wana park ans see u park there... tio... anything cna happen.

Don't forget, u live in singapore.

Finally, where on earth got people like u so smart wana commit offence still can ASK over here... that is something. you are my idol... Laughing

Ekit08 SG

no la.. i mean by say it is after 7pm u can drive got anybody drive off at between 6pm to 7pm…

ak0 SG

i guess is every petrol car or traffic police see ur car then they key in ur car plate to a system then double check whether u did buy a coupon on that particular day anot…

free4ever SG

Coupon is tear one right, to my understanding, just like parking coupon. You have to tear the date off before you start to drive and if any tp / rov stop you, you have to show that you have teared the correct date. In this case, the police are not able to login to the system to check whether you bought or not.

I am sure you dont want to buy one just before you drive, troublesome right, and also not to buy in a few days in advance, just in case change of plan

free4ever SG

Mabbe 6.50pm, 6.55pm will still be ok lah, at least can argue that the clock in your car and watch are slightly faster. 6pm too way out already, wat, say your watch fast by 1 hr and you thought it is 7pm already ah... Laughing

You not only need to tear the coupon first before you drive off and you still need to write down your vehicle number on the coupon too. So, this make the coupon not transferable at all and you cannot share it with other even you only need to use your car for half a day only.

On the coupon, its state that it is a SERIOUS OFFENCE to use a invalid or tampered licence, the offence of tampering with the licence carries an IMPRISONMENT SENTENCE.

Cheating the coupon is a very serious offence, can end you up in jail. Some people only kanna fine and have their licence Gan tong for causing death to others when they drinks and drive. So image how serious it is for not displaying the coupon especially if you try to tamper with it. So better drive with a valid coupon if you want to drive during the restricted time.

Is it worth converting to off peak cars? Gathered from sources that rebate ($17k) may not be refunded in cash. Also, your loan may also be revised downwards since price of cars has come down.

keith_typeR SG

Are you sure?? My colleague owns one and told me the fine is $5k!! Plus a court case to see if there is a need to sentence you to jail or even take your car away.

Anyone can clarify this??
