SINGAPORE \u2013 The Traffic Police (TP) issued more than 150 summonses to drivers of commercial vehicles over a three-day enforcement operation from July 20 to 22.<\/p>\n
A total of 276 commercial vehicles were stopped for checks during the operation, with the summonses issued for offences ranging from speeding to failing to wear a seatbelt, TP said on Aug 3. Others were also nabbed for failing to keep left.<\/p>\n
Additionally, three people aged between 34 and 47 were caught driving without a valid licence and using a motor vehicle without insurance coverage.<\/p>\n
At least 99 violations related to the Land Transport Authority (LTA) were also detected, including displaying improper licence plates.<\/p>\n
These cases have been referred to LTA for further action, said TP.<\/p>\n
If found guilty, the offenders may face jail terms and fines.<\/p>\n
The TP issued a reminder that heavy vehicles must be fitted with speed limiters and display the corresponding labels on windscreens.<\/p>\n
Those found exceeding speed limits are required to go for inspections to verify that their limiters are functioning properly.<\/p>\n
Non-compliant lorries are legally prohibited from being used on roads here. Their road tax also cannot be renewed and they may face reduced insurance coverage.<\/p>\n
Lorry owners whose vehicles were registered in or after January 2018 with a maximum laden weight of between 5,001kg and 12,000kg must also install a speed limiter by Jan 1, 2027. A list of authorised agents is available on the police force\u2019s website<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n Older lorry models registered before 2018 should have already been fitted with speed limiters before their earlier deadlines in 2026.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n SINGAPORE \u2013 The Traffic Police (TP) issued more than 150 summonses to drivers of commercial vehicles over a three-day enforcement operation from July 20 to…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":73923,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2611],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-73922","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-buzz-headlines","wpcat-2611-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73922","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=73922"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73922\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/73923"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=73922"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=73922"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=73922"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
