  1. today was traveling on the road and could not help but noticing that those commerical vehicles are keeping to the left lane.. at most 1 or 2 odd one on the 2nd lane.. i think these were mainly due to the newspaper reporting more cmmerical vehicles kena book by TP.. Hope they keep to their lane for a longer period before TP take action again...
  2. What kind of imbecile drives this fast? The thought must have crossed your mind at least once whenever you witness a Ferrari or Lamborghini blazing past. And I don’t blame you. I’ve even muttered the (rare) expletive when I encounter such behaviour. However, my column this month isn’t about supercar owners and their driving habits. Except for the proverbial bad penny, which turns up once in a blue moon, the sports car drivers I know all conduct themselves pretty well. On the other hand, the individuals behind the wheel of commercial vehicles– trucks, lorries, vans and trailers – have been getting on my nerves. Again, I’m not saying that every one of them behaves in the same manner, but the increasing number of times I’ve seen huge trucks zoom past me (and vans travelling in front of my car at high speeds) isn’t only highly irritating, but also worrying. Take a trip down the AYE (in the direction of the ECP) and you’ll see what I mean. There will be commercial vehicles in every lane, except the rightmost one, for much of the way. Come to think of it, I’ve also seen them in said lane –overtaking other vehicles at speeds way in excess of the regulatory limit. The loads that are ferried by these vehicles weigh tonnes – and I cannot imagine the extent of the carnage should they get into accidents. During one rainy October evening on the Keppel Viaduct (this stretch is a great place to catch these offenders); I got the scare of my life. A truck carrying a load of earth (bits and pieces were falling out of the back) sped past on my left and then swerved into my lane suddenly. This action caused it to oversteer, and its tail slid from left to right before the driver (who surely must have been praying, because I sure was) managed to get it under control. I tell you, I was so sure it was going to tip over that I was already looking around to see where to steer my car. At that juncture, I was even prepared to perform a handbrake turn if the need arose. Thankfully, I didn’t have to. The whole thing could easily have been avoided if Mr Stupid Truck Driver stuck to the speed limit, and was mindful of the sheer size and weight of his vehicle. I know the authorities are aware of the potential danger these vehicles pose to road users, but something more needs to be done to punish the law-breakers. For a start, I’m all for increased policing, especially along the roads that these drivers frequent. And before you get all jumpy at my suggestion (as this would also mean that every driver will come under heavier scrutiny), I have one final thing to add: Is there really any need to speed? Tony also recommends that all commercial vehicles to be fitted with speed limiters – just like the ones installed in Formula One race cars – that will prevent them from exceeding a preset limit while they’re on the road. This article was written by Tony Tan, freelance writer for Torque.
  3. As the topic, Very strange, all of the world is there 2nd auto manufacture like Honda?
  4. hmm... Do you think there is a possiblity that there may be a big commerical pty market crash next yr? Many SME business I know is facing crisis. Given the higher rental cost , operating cost as well as manpower shortage... Do you think there is a likelihood that many small business will fold soon. Causing many commerical properties to be "out of rent".
  5. Hi, I am interested to purchased a 2006 Mitsubishi L300. However, i would like to know does commercial van have OMV value? If i scape the van at the end of the COE expiry, do i get back anything? Need help here.
  6. It is not common but i had witness a few "van" with a private license plate no. My concern is that the vehicles are the same.. but why 1 need to stick to a speed limit while another can drive as fast as any private car? So how LTA/TP set the speed of those commerical vehicle in the first place? And how save is it for this kind of vehicle to travel as fast as any private car? I am not talking abt those private ambulance but normal van. The most recent one was 1 Renault Traffic with a Private plate, puffing black smoke when climbing up the ECP slope.. (t sure is a diesel vehicle/0.. but it was zooming in and out of lane like some sport car when climbing the slope..

  10. Probe into Ren Ci finds irregularities in 'a few' financial deals Health Ministry has referred these to the Commercial Affairs Department. Volunteers in Ren Ci Hospital helps out at the canine therapy which takes place every second Sunday of the month. -- PHOTO: TNP A Ministry of Health probe into Ren Ci Hospital and Medicare Centre has discovered that a few financial transactions could not be 'satisfactorily explained'. 'In order to seek greater clarity into these transactions, MOH has referred them to the Commercial Affairs Department for it assistance,' said the ministry in a statement on Monday. 'MOH will be seeking the cooperation of Ren Ci's board and staff to assistant in CAD's investigation.' The ministry will continue its subsidies to Ren Ci for its patient care services to ensure that patients continue to receive care and medical treatment and the day-to-day operations remain undisrupted. Ren Ci has been under investigation by MOH since last November following the discovery of some possible irregularities in certain financial transactions involving the charity and other external organisations. Ernst & Young Associates was appointed to conduct the inquiry. The charity had extended interest-free loans, amounting to millions of dollars, to several companies. An audit turned up discrepancies between the amount recorded by the charity as loaned out and that recorded by the companies as borrowed.
