If your COE expires, why isn't selling the car to someone else an option? Why is it only 1) scrap (destroy car), 2) export (get the car out of Singapore) or 3) buy/renew the COE?
Technically you can but the person has to get a COE as well. And sometimes the cost of having to maintain a car that's more than 10 years old outweighs the price difference of getting a new car. If you think about it in the future, a 5 year old car is also probably easier to sell than a 15 year old car, if the buyer decides to sell it later.
@@entrydenied What's the point of this system? Car population control by preventing the poor from realistically owning a car? That seems to be the purpose and goal of the Singaporean government from an outsider's view.
@@BPoweredLove To reduce car ownership while improving public transportation to the point that most people don't need private transportation. Most people live a 3 to 5 min walk away from a bus stop(or a few bus stops for that matter) and a 5 to 10 min walk from a subway station. Public amenities are no more than 15 to 30 min away. We're a country with more than 100 shopping malls after all.
@@entrydenied You could have just written "yep"! Haha. Because rich people (in general) do not take public transportation, surrounding themselves with us plebs. Meaning, in very human-dense countries/areas, the way to filter out excessive congestion is too price out the lesser-advantaged. This applies to almost everything in life.
It's actually awesome because the transit there is amazing. Although, the extreme step of making cars so hard to get is only necessary there because the country is so small and there is not enough space for cars. It's not necessary in most countries
@@WhatIsThis-zq4hk The transit system is very impressive, I was just thinking how something like this would be impossible in my country due to the size of it.
@@Brian-cb3ce but that is exactly what they want to avoid: everyone driving. There is literally no room for anyone other than a few people to drive. May as well bring in a ton of tax revenue from rich people
@Brian-cb3ce driving isn't really necessary tho. If u wanna drive u gotta pay for the roads. I don't think it's perfect but it's the opposite of what we have in the USA and what we have is just as awful in its own way. I forgot to mention. There is no income tax. You make 100k you keep 100k. There is only sales or value added tax to purchases. So you pay tax into what you use.
As an alternative to personal transportation ~ public transportation is super good in Singapore. But if u include family needs of a mode of transportation; eg sending young children to schools, fetching elderlies to medical appointments, then Gov is make meeting these obligations very difficult. Other alternatives r there ~ eg a nucleus family car entitlement allocation as per similar to HDB flats. But ~ Sg Gov wants the monies collected via COE: it is a big slice of tax/revenue collected.
Hi Bloomberg Quicktake Channel, awesome information about how expensive the car price in Singapore, may I take some footage for my video on the topic of traffic congestion in Jakarta? I'll give you a shout-out and include a link in the video description. Thanks in advance!

its not fair in the case that only the rich can afford to drive. It should be prioritized in a different way not how much money you have.

Do people forget that motorcycles exist or what? If you can’t afford a car, just buy a motorbike.

@@aynrandfan7454 Ah so you rollover into new cars every few years and create a never ending mountain of debt.
As a car enthusiast this is my idea of hell 😅😂

@@WhatIsThis-zq4hk Being a car enthusiast and a transit enthusiast isn't mutually exclusive, you know.
wow. Then driving is only for the rich eventually.
Yes it’s a dogs country.
A hell country for anyone that loves cars absolute hell land 😂
So that's why all the Singapur girls try to scam...
