Motorists fain flexibility in ERP unit placement
The enhancements follow motorist complaints about safety.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) announced that motorists can now choose where to install the Electronic Road Pricing system (ERP) processing unit for safety and technical considerations.
About 18,000 vehicles have installed the ERP since its implementation in August 2023.
In addition, with the enhanced ERP 2.0 system, motorists no longer need to remove their CEPAS card from the processing unit when driving the vehicle.
This applies to situations where the vehicle enters or exits a car park, addressing complaints about the difficulty and safety of drivers reaching the card processing unit from the driver’s seat.
