Road Trip to JB - Enforcement started!!!

[Ticklish8]

Went in this morning. They started enforcement since 2 days ago according to petrol station that i visited. Here is the poster that they posted. Take note

[Ticklish8]

Top up my Allion at Esso.....

 

[Ticklish8]

At petronas, the enforcement notice is pasted at the counter....

 

hehehehehe

[Ticklish8]

But as usual, come back from JB, saw very bad jam for car entering Singapore.....

If enter JB with 3/4 tank full...

Then how much actually can be filled up which also have to depend on car makes and petrol tank sizes.

Let say fill up 1/4 tank estimated at 20 litres...does it still worth to go in JB for petrol??

[Seaweed]

no english....i don't understand....if pump more and the station never stop me than it is their sole responsibility liao lor...did you see any english version around....

[Reys]

i don't understand. what if they did not put up notice, would you had risked pumping more than 20l?

I'm sure that will work. Please try it and keep us informed :)

I have never been a supporter of pumping cheap petrol in Malaysia...so looks like there isn't much opportunity for me to try...

ignorance is never considered a defence in the law.....

[Seaweed]

it depends...of course if someone kills someone but saying that he does not know it is wrong to kill....well obviously ignorance don't really stand....but if someone went to a foreign place where within 10km radius...there isn't a sign or any indication that informed smoking is not allow...he lit up a cigarette and get caught...can ignorance become a defence? I think it is rather obvious correct?

i was in jb last night about 3am. include mine only 3 cars at esso, all SG cars.

 

notice the other 2 cars take forever to pump.....

 

Did not notice any notice, in fact i never even walk to counter to pay as i pay using credit card at the pump.

 

imho, just pump and go. 1/4 tank or 20L is still worth the effort with 1L is about $0.80 vs $2

 

In SG, 20L is about $40, whereas in JB $20 (include causeway toll) Save 50%

 

Just the trouble and time taken to go in. If very free ppl like me, don't mind and actually enjoy driving and makan there, I see no harm.

well i am not a lawyer, but I then suggest you go read some statutes. Unless the way the law is written specifically allows for lack of knowledge as a defence (as in for example, indecent exposure) then "ignorance is not a defence".

 

Having said this of course, laws are enforced by humans, so in you example - perhaps the offender is given the benefit of the doubt and let of with a warning. This does not mean that the law wasn't broken, but rather that its not being enforced. A subtle distinction, but an important one none the less.
