🚨 SCAM ALERT 🚨

We are aware that an SMS pertaining to ERP payments is being circulated. The SMS tells the recipient that his ERP payment has failed and he needs to download “the LTA application” to avoid a fine by clicking on a hyperlink in the message.

We are aware that a caller using a spoofed landline number (+65 6396 1205) is impersonating an LTA officer on the pretext of informing some members of public that their vehicles have been involved in hit-and-run incidents.

⚠️ These calls were not made by LTA. We urge members of the public to exercise caution and refrain from divulging personal information to unfamiliar parties.

#Reminder When in doubt, always verify the information with relevant authorities.

During our recent enforcement operation, four drivers were caught providing illegal cross-border chauffeured services between Singapore and Malaysia.

#PSA We take these offences very seriously. For your own safety, do refrain from using such services. Besides being illegal, the vehicles used may not be sufficiently insured against third party liabilities which could pose a serious problem for passengers should an accident occur.

➡️ All devices need to comply to the prescribed length, width and weight requirements. In addition, motorised cargo bicycles and tricycles, rider-only tricycles and recumbents are NOT allowed on paths and roads.

1️⃣ their devices comply with existing requirements;
2️⃣ they observe group length limit i.e 5 cyclists in a single file, or 10 cyclists riding two abreast and maintain a minimum distance of 30m or 2 lamp posts between groups on the roads

LTA will continue to enforce against errant active mobility users who endanger others with their irresponsible behaviour.
