ERP Summon. 2nd time in 2 years.

ERPs are a pain in the butt. What was the most expensive that you have paid to pass through an ERP gantry? $2? $3? How about SGD$8.25?? For a bike! *faintsss*

Was riding happily heading out of town, when I saw that demonic gantry up 500m ahead. I'm sure that the gates of hell are actually ERP gantries. lol! Imagine having to pay to enter hell? kekekeke~ Entrepreneurial or what. Aiseh man, my cashcard was inside the box. I was doing good at about 70km/h, but was smack right in the middle of the road! Checked my left spot, clear! So filtered left, and ALAMAK!!! No road shoulder??? How to stop lah!

As a consequence of not inserting the cashcard while riding through an ERP gantry, the Land Transport Authority sent me a loveletter. SGD$8.25. PAY UP!

Dear LTA, can you please phase out the STUPID cashcard and IU unit system? Come on, the IU already cost SGD$100++ to install, cashcards get stolen if we forget to take it out from the IU, and I am sure the cameras at the ERP gantries have enough megapixels to figure out our plate numbers right? Take a picture when we pass through, and charge to an account similar to how we pay our mobile phone bills! Haiyoooo...

BURDEN la ERP.
