Fitvip Supersonic September 9, 2020 Share September 9, 2020 (edited) The para mentioning IT specialist Larry Leong is not seen. In the printed ST , the last few paras refer. He commented that the system is old fashioned. He said that App-based open platform would have been better and more cost effective.

Alfc 5th Gear September 9, 2020 Share September 9, 2020 Why re-invent the wheel with another hardware? Why cant just write an APP and connect via handphone (GPS, payment system etc). Just make sure motorist download the APP and link up all the necessary interfaces when driving. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid design with too many unnecessary gimmics. The more holier explanation given was to reduce congestion. They never said to charge motorist more. But the simpler solution would have been not to throw back all those extra coes back into the pool... Which is then encouraging ppl to increase the vehicular population.... And then give them an excuse to charge more. I don't know where they got the idea that ppl will buy cars to park at home and pai-swee only. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using a mobile based platform would have made perfect sense. Instead they're using an inflexible bespoke hardware platform. The ERP 2.0 display technology and the whole cashcard payment platform is 10 years outdated already. What a flop. But then again, we couldn't even figure out a local universal e-payment system, so why should cars be any different...

Volvobrick Supersonic September 9, 2020 Share September 9, 2020 Only idiots can come up with such a messy, complicated solution. Everything is made smaller, except LTA's 3 piece machine with a separate PROCESSING UNIT. Our mobile phones can do everything the LTA's IU does, and 1000 times more. It is just incredible how stupid the people in LTA are. As if badly designed roads/junctions are not enough, now they will put in the ugly IU to remind us ALL THE TIME how idiotic they are whenever we are in our cars. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
