TangoElite 6th Gear January 10, 2017 Share January 10, 2017 What, a direct tax on diesel fuel? That's going to drive up costs for everything as commercial vehicles use diesel... very easy to separate diesel passenger from diesel commercial and tax both creatures uniquely ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vratenza Supersonic January 10, 2017 Share January 10, 2017 lots of ways to skin a cat.... they can direct tax diesel at the pump.... and then rebate the commercial plate registered vehicles with road tax rebate/ERP etc. or they can just increase the current diesel road tax calculation for those diesel private registered vehicle if they set their mind to it....it is not a matter of how or what...it is just a matter of when. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piyopico Supercharged January 10, 2017 Share January 10, 2017 If they increase direct tax on diesel, lots of companies will get impacted but it will be passed along to end consumers. Govt doing that at this point is very very bad timing. If they only wack private vehicles, then I say go for it. This is the only way to curb the exponential increase of private diesels. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

therock Supersonic January 10, 2017 Share January 10, 2017 Actually the diesel option has lured a few average Joe buyers to the premium marques .. The cevs rebate made these cars cheap enough for them to make the leap. So not every 116d or 216d or VW buyer is a bungalow living towkay. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they tax my diesel Moi Cheong the bunker fuel pump http://www.nea.gov.sg/anti-pollution-radiation-protection Smoky Vehicles NEA takes stringent enforcement actions against smoky vehicles on the roads. Under the Environmental Protection and Management (Vehicular Emissions) Regulations, it is an offence for any vehicle to emit visible smoke while in use on the road. The rationale is to minimise pollution to the environment and safeguard public health as the visible smoke contains fine particulate matter. Owners of smoky vehicles can be fined up to a maximum of $2,000 for the first offence and $5,000 for subsequent offences. Currently, in-use diesel vehicles are required to undergo and pass the Chassis Dynamometer Smoke Test (CDST) during the periodic vehicle inspection conducted at the authorised vehicle inspection centres. Since 1 January 2014, to pass the CDST, the smoke opacity limit has been tightened from 50 HSU to 40 HSU. Diesel vehicles that are maintained and serviced properly will not have difficulty passing the stricter CDST limit. Owners of vehicles that do not pass or marginally pass the CDST will be informed by the inspection centres to send their vehicles for immediate servicing/repair. It is the responsibility of every owner of a vehicle to ensure that the vehicle is in good condition before using it on the road. Besides regular servicing and vehicular maintenance, the driver should avoid overloading the vehicle or dragging the engine while driving. For 2-stroke motorcycles, the cause of smoke emission is usually due to incorrect dosage of lubricating oil or a clogged exhaust system. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
