Because u ideally cut off your size of the golden goose.. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benarsenal Turbocharged May 13, 2023 Share May 13, 2023 I think distance-based charging would have a lot of issues and implications down the line. Privacy is one thing (you're effectively being tracked everywhere you go), but there's also fairness in implementation. Say for example, you drive from Jurong East to Tuas South, which is quite a distance but likely to be relatively traffic free. Do you pay more or less than someone who drives from, say, Clementi to CBD (shorter distance but more congested)? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitmugen 5th Gear May 13, 2023 Share May 13, 2023 I think those who had wanted to wait until 2024 will go in soon, cos the supply bump is no longer going to happen in 2024. My prediction for next week is $8k - $10k lower for Cat A and $5k lower for Cat B. And June 1st bidding will rise back to current levels Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbon82 Moderator May 14, 2023 Share May 14, 2023 With many unhappy about PHCs with strong financial backing fighting for limited COEs, the latest announcement (of bringing forward deregistered COE in the next few quarters) is more like opening a window for PHCs to put more PHV on the road without causing further spike in premium. Then after another 3 - 4 quarters, after LTA is done with their "monitoring", new measures will be implemented to bring down COE premium, which by then is almost at the end of the tunnel of COE draught, and GE due. Claim credit and move on for the next 5 years... These seems to be what's written on the wall when I read the announcement, yet many are cheering and hoping for the price to plunge. All these while whatever measures rolled out by LTA has been missing the elephant in the room. If you look deeper at LTA statistics, you would have see much more than what our mini$ter$ are trying to paint (you don't need to be a scholar, just a pair of analytical eyes and some critical thinking) 15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned before, my bro friend drive for a China family and that one family alone has 7 cars. Do your calculation when there’s at least a few hundred of this type of family. ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
