Something is not right in current context.

 

Jam is due to qty of the vehicle, not the âqualityâ (cost adder) of the vehicle. The cost of the vehicle should base on the market sentiment instead of intervention like VES.

 

In another words, how could the jam be reduced by increase the cost of the car? Just cut half the quota of car vs increase the cost car ownership for next 10 year, see the jam will reduce base on cost or # of coe quota

One problem. If you cut the quota of cars, what happens to your public transport? Cos it gets very crowded during peak hours and now people who would be driving are now taking public transport. So you have a problem. You are just transferring to crowd from one place to another.

first, papee will send the transport minister to take train and take a smiling photo to prove that  MRT is a viable transportation means.

next, they will raise price of MRT ticket during peak hour to encourage people to spread out their travelling pattern.

And when off peak hours become crowded, say the off peak discount is cancelled now but the increased fare for peak period remains.

 

ERP is increased to make up the revenue from the decreased number of cars and drivers also pay more because of smoother traffic.

 

As public transport gets more crowded, coe quota rises again to meet demand but ERP does not come down so high prices remain.

 

Then as roads get crowded, rinse and repeat.

Guys, let's keep to the topic of discussion which is COE Bidding

 

Those wanting to rant about car policies, car costs etc etc are off topic.

 

Start new thread or refer to old ones...I'm sure these have been discussed to death and rebirth and death and rebirth etc...

 

Sorry, I also rant... [grin]

Cat B was hit badly by new VES scheme but at the same time Cat B increased a lot in the last 6 months. It does not make sense.

At the present rate of Cat B coe increase, wondering if the Cat B/open Cat E be reaching the $50~60K levels by year end.

 

Pretty cautiously pessimistic if you are looking for vehicles for this segment.

Not true. Hybird car is not premium car. I wanted to buy hybird car to save environment for better living but hybird car was hit badly by cat B COE fluctuations. I had to buy cat A petrol car even though I wanted to save environment.
