10 Things ONLY Singapore Car Owners Will Know
In any country, there will be some things that are exclusive to car owners in Singapore. Here is our list of things only Singapore drivers know:
1) Exact Depreciation
Sounds unreal but this is true, knowing that in 10 years your car value will be just $0… Only Singapore drivers will know…
2) ERP
Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) system was first introduced in 1998. Making a trip from Woodlands to Raffles Place would cost about $15 per vehicle. And only drivers in Singapore are experienced enough to know it well.
3) Cash Card
Card that holds your cash! Insert it into your car’s on-board unit and watch the value in your card decrease due to the invisible hands of ERP. Do pedestrians need this? No, only drivers in Singapore need it.
4) AXS stations
Self-service kiosk where you can pay your traffic fines! Paying fines can now be more convenient! Driving offenses would be one of the highest earning out of the public fines in Singapore – something only drivers in Singapore know.
5) Sky-high COE
In Singapore, you can buy a Honda Jazz at the price of Nissan GTR! Before becoming a driver they have to buy a car. And sky-high COE is only something drivers in Singapore will constantly track.
6) MY/SG GPS
Look! A free Malaysian Map Update. What a good deal as we get 2 maps for a price of one, yet only drivers in Singapore know…
7) Fines
You can get fined for parking within 9 meters from a bus stop. Read the rest of our complete guide that tells you more about parking in Singapore here.
