Singapore notes

LTA's periodic inspection checks a car's exhaust emissions and noise against the prevailing standards, as well as brakes, steering, lights and structure. Cars under 3 years old have no periodic inspection, cars aged 3 to 10 years are inspected every 2 years, and cars over 10 years every year. The dictionary does not say how this code affects an inspection, so ask the inspection centre or a workshop. LTA: vehicle inspection
