3rd caught for tampered gauge

By Melissa Pang

SINGAPORE Customs has charged a third motorist in three months for tampering with fuel gauges.

Muhammad Ali Putra Hairom, 24, was found guilty of not having the minimum amount of motor spirit in his vehicle's fuel tank, and giving false information to an officer inspecting the fuel gauge of his vehicle.

He was caught on Oct 7 with a tampered fuel gauge at Woodlands Checkpoint. His car fuel gauge indicated a full tank, but close examination showed that that the fuel gauge had been tampered with. The actual amount of fuel was also only at the one-quarter mark.

Further investigations revealed that Muhammad Ali had used a remote control to change the fuel gauge reading, and he was aware of the three-quarter tank rule.

For both offences, the Singaporean was fined $500 and sentenced to two weeks' jail respectively on Oct 8.

Since 2006, Singapore Customs has successfully prosecuted six persons for tampering with their car fuel gauges. In the same period, more than 7,200 motorists have been fined for not having at least three-quarter tank of patrol when leaving Singapore.

Sorry, Counsel, this, I have something to say..........

Tampering of fuel gauge is not for nit wits or f88ked brains !! You flip the switch either manually or remotely way before the custom and not near to the custom. Any moronic actions at the custom or near the custom will attract unwanted attention like this motherf88ker did !! If he had any brain, I will be surprised !!

I told them not to play here and they never listened. Don't play play with fuel gauge!

That is what sinkie do. You expect them to stand up for themselves to protest against the govt for price increase? Fat hope!!!

The higher probability will be thanking their master for screwing them and tell them to screw them more if there is a need for that while bending down getting ready.
