The stuff of nightmares for all motorists. Everyone knows that it costs a pretty penny to park in Singapore but not this much — $285 for an hour's parking at Simpang Bedok.
According to a motorist by the name of Syed, that's the amount that this electronic parking system gantry (that looks like it survived nuclear fallout) wanted to charge him on the eve of Chinese New Year. He noped the hell out of there and used the other exit — and got charged the normal pricing of $2.40. As someone pointed out, Syed was lucky that the system wasn't one of those automatic ones that directly charged the cost to debit.
