  Why is the weekend car driving for free only after 3pm on Saturday? Isn't it Saturday already weekend? Is it a way to get more money from people?
  
  I heard there was once people arguing about this. And someone in the authority said that Saturday is still working day for some companies. And why does the free driving only start from 3pm on Saturday.

  the weekend scheme was not reverise since 1990. not forgetting not cutting short the rebate too.
  I still find alot of ppl are confusing when buy the weekend car and they simply bo cha to take a look at the statement written on the contract/LTA policy.

  Actually, i personally feels that 3pm is a bit too late. Considering saturday is mostly half day. Maybe u can write to LTA to make it earlier. =) Maybe 1pm?

  It's just being fair to the other road users who paid so much more.

  there r still workers coming back from work after their 1/2 day work on saturday ... the purpose is to serve them to hv an easier time coming back from work rather then hving to jostle with the weekend cars ...
  
  i think 3pm is justify ... .. if anything earlier
  
  might as well given the whole of satuday free to opc car
  
  my 3 1/2 cents
