Scion Turbocharged February 19, 2011 Share February 19, 2011 is this a record?? can use the money to buy a better car liao Feb 19, 2011, ST Off-peak car owner fined $130,000 Serial offender's car was driven 26 times without valid licence during restricted hours By Khushwant Singh IN 2008, Johnson Fok Jun Hong was fined $1,000 for driving his off-peak or weekend car during the restricted period without a valid supplementary licence. In 2009, he was fined $3,000 for repeating the offence. A year later, he was at it again - not once, but 26 times. Between April and August last year, his Subaru Impreza had been driven 26 times without the necessary licence. In December last year, Fok, 30, was fined $5,000 for each of the offences. The total fine was $130,000, which is believed to be one of the largest amounts to be levied against an off-peak car offender. If he cannot pay up, he must serve 130 days in jail. He has filed an appeal. Fok had pleaded guilty on Dec 2 to driving the car on eight occasions and allowing it to be used 18 other times during the restricted period between 7am and 7pm on weekdays except public holidays. In the grounds of decision issued yesterday, District Judge Salina Ishak said that she had considered the merit of the prosecution's argument that Fok's latest violations were committed after the Land Transport Authority introduced the e-Day Licence system on Nov 23, 2009, to replace the physical coupon supplementary licence scheme. Under the e-Day scheme, motorists have 48 hours after they use their weekend cars to buy an e-Day Licence for $20 through a host of ways, including at SingPost outlets and AXS stations. Pleading for leniency, Fok, who did not have a lawyer, said that he had been a patient of the Institute of Mental Health (IMH) since 2006, and did not recall things that he did. But Judge Salina noted that his IMH report did not indicate 'any causal link' between his mental condition and the commission of the offences. She also noted that the timing and location of several violations indicated 'some degree of regularity'. 'It can be inferred that these trips were not made by someone who was driving aimlessly...' As a serial offender, Fok could have been fined up to $10,000 for each offence. The date of his appeal hearing has not been announced.

Greatbirdlegend 1st Gear February 19, 2011 Share February 19, 2011 So young, only 30. Can't understand this insanity. Guess he'll most likely choose to go inside for free lodging and food. If he's not willing to buy $20 e-Day license then really doubtful he'll even consider paying $130k fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
