SG: Drivers are allowed to use mobile devices at red lights

 The Jetta is one of the world's most successful sedans with over 14 million units sold since 1979. The sixth-generation model has been among the top 10 most popular models in Singapore, since its launch in 2011.  Now launching is a new Jetta that has been extensively redesigned and re-engineered. Designers created new front and rear designs (optional new xenon headlights and LED tail lights), aerodynamic experts reduced air drag by 10%, and new tyres improve rolling resistance. Electronic experts came up with new assistance systems and the body team achieved even better crash properties – the previous model already achieved a 5-star Euro NCAP rating.

In this second round of bidding for March for Certificates of Entitlement (COE) has increased in all categories. 

The Early Turnover Scheme was announced in 2013, and incentivised the replacement of older, less efficient Category C diesel vehicles with more modern and efficient ones. The initial batch, which targeted trucks registered before the 1st of January 2001, was a relative success. The second batch, which will allow owners of Cat C vehicles registered from between 1st January 2001 to 30th September 2006, to trade their older vehicles in for newer ones from the 1st of August onwards. This move will impact over 60,000 vehicles, which makes up about 40% of the total Cat C diesel vehicle population in Singapore. Slight alterations have also been made to the regulations to sweeten the deal. Owners of such diesel vehicles can register a new vehicle without bidding for a new COE. They only have to pay the prevailing quota premium (PQP), which will be discounted against the bonus COE period anyways.   If 2014 taught the dealers anything, it is that similar schemes have caused huge supply bottlenecks before. With over 60,000 vehicles qualifying for the scheme, customers may have to wait months for a replacement due to the lack of available stock. Pictures used for illustration purposes only.
