dun forget the photo taken could have the drive face on it   -_-  -_-

 

haha the camera faces the rear of the car, not the front

I'm pretty sure beating a red light is not a criminal offence, but lying to the police is.

 

lol pls la.. none of us are angels here.

Hi Guys,

 

I need some advice.

 

I just got my first summon letter yesterday and I'm abit upset as I'm not aware that I've made that offence. The offence was

Falling to conform to Red light signal with a fine of $200 and 12 Demerit Points.

 

Place of offense: Upper Bukit Timah Rd X Old Jurong Rd -> Woodlands RD (RLC)

 

For sure I did not go against the red light. If I did it I will be very aware of it.

 

Anyway, I'm currently on P plate and I will end my probation on 1 Mar 2017 which is in 2 weeks time. I'm planning to appeal but I'm not sure how to write or what to say :(

 

I have a few questions to ask:

Currently I'm on the 13 demerits system so will I be converted to the 24 demerits points after 2 Mar 2017? (completed the 1 year probation)

 

If I my appeal is rejected I will be down to 12 demerits points right? or will it be only 1 demerit point? (will I still be converted to the 24 demerit points after probation)

 

I'm not sure how to write the appeal letter and will be very grateful if someone her can help me out.

 

Thank you so much

Ex

Sorry to heard about your encounter. I have similar experience when I was a P plater.. 6pts deducted for speeding, remaining 4mths drove like a tortoise.

 

If you decided to admit, just furnish your details. You can still drive with Zero points until 1 Mar 17. But make sure you good boy, even simple offence like failure to wear seat belt or driving on bus lane can revoke your license. After probation which is 1 Mar 17, you'll have 12 pts until 1 Mar 18, provided no more new offence during this one year. If everything goes smooth, your points will revert to 24pts on 1 Mar 18.

 

Thank so much your advice. Cheers

Just say sorry. Then continue with the following................

 

1) Not familiar with road travelled.

2) Never notice change of traffic lights.

3) Car too powerful, brakes lousy, unable to stop in time.

4) Behind got vehicle if jam e-brake.

5) Tail wind from mother nature very strong cause of North-east monsoon season.

6) Apologise for your misjudgement being a newbie driver.

7) Start to blame road design.

8) Start to blame traffic light placement.

9) Explain u know what u committed is a serious offence and truly learnt ur lesson.

10) Tell them about your/close family bad health, u need the car to transport them.

11) Give them options. Can pay fine only? Can demerit lesser points? Can both also dont want, close two eyes?

 

That should be able to compose a nice 500 words appeal letter.

 

Good luck! :D

If appeal letter fail, go find ur MP for help. This will delay the offence being charged. [laugh]

 

Thank you. This really helps! Cheers

 

Iirc.. appeal after 2march.. not before.. this way u get the full 24 to deduct if u fail in appeal

 

Noted. Thanks :)

Brother Exman,

 

Just go to Ubi Police Station get a number to see an officer to explain your case. Write letter of appeal sometime they just don't border or it may take some time fo reply.  But chances are very slim.

 

Wish you good luck.
